    UPDATE! 5 roosters and 4 hens. The two colorful lighter ones some said were roosters are hens! ☺️🐓🐤

    Back is deformed

    What’s weird is this just became apparent in the last week. I had moved this flock into a new run, I picked them all up to move them and nothing was abnormal.

    Back is deformed

    I just got back from a week long vacation and noticed that one of my young roosters has started to look hunched in his back. He seemed perfectly fine before I left, and he’s the only one showing this. Does anyone have any thoughts on what could be going on? Seems to be eating and drinking fine.

    I got ones of the white ones today, not sure if they’re good enough to tell. I can take better ones tomorrow when they’re in the full run.

    Hens or roosters

    It really is 😞 I’m sorry for your loss I know they are! I’m sorry for your loss. I ended up getting 3 tube men, which they’re working out well so far. Minus my electricity bill 🤣 but the things we do for our chickens 🙃

    Hens or roosters

    Thank you! He’s a good boy, looking out for his ladies. Unfortunately, I had a pair of Rhode Island red hens, and my favorite was attacked by a hawk. 😞 I decided to incubate some of her eggs and some of my other Rhode Island Reds who’s still around. I did not think all 9 eggs were going to...

    I wouldn’t be sad if those were. The dad has a beautiful mix of colors. I’ll plan to take better this this weekend. 😄

    Hens or roosters

    Oh yes, I’m sure it throws out some off the wall stuff. It basically mashed together a few photos from forums and websites to come up with its grand theory. A few others I personally know have said 1 -3 hens and rest roosters, half and half mix. So I’m definitely curious In the weeks to come...

    The mom is a typical brown rir, the dad is a colorful Americana. A close friend who has New Hampshire red and americana mixed chickens has some pretty colorful hens. Hoping mine would turn out that way too!

    Hens or roosters

    Funny joke 🙄 I’ve actually asked a few fellow chicken keepers already, everyone had a different opinion! So nope, I didn’t rely on AI. That’s why I’m here asking too.

    We shall see! ChatGPT said mostly hens, minus the one in the back. So I decided to come on here and ask. I love the white ones.

    These are Americana / RIR mix. 11 weeks old. Can you tell if they’re hens or roosters? Not very good pictures but I tried!

    What’s going on with my girl?!

    My girl has been losing wing feathers and now by the base of her tail. Does it look like mites? I couldn’t get close enough to her tonight without my rooster going crazy - so I took a closeup picture. Her butt feathers look a little wet too. I don’t know what’s going on. She’s otherwise is...

    Transition to outside

    Our chicks hatched on June 6th. Third time raising chicks in a brooder and these 9 are messy!! They’re honestly bigger than my other flocks were at this age. My partner wants to move them outdoors to our small chicken coop/run. It’s attached to our main chicken run, so they’ll get some...

    Dust bath

    Hello! 🙂 I ended up using a plastic kiddie pool from Walmart and drilled holes in the bottom for drainage. Filled it with all purpose sand from Lowe’s, and wood ash from our wood burning stove. Since this post I have let my chickens free range again. I purchased two wavy men from vevor. They...
