I have a trio of bantam Ameraucanas (aka Easter Eggers) with one cockerel (young rooster) and two pullets (young hens) for sale.
They were hatched May 10, so they are about eleven weeks. Very friendly, as you can see from the photos.
Asking $60 for the trio. Delivery for a gas fee; up to two...

Hatched by incubator on April 17, he is a big guy already at just three months old, and only...
Will anyone in the Seattle area have d'anver hatching eggs for sale later this spring?
I'd like to hatch 1/2 dozen lavender, blue, porcelain, and/or quail d'anvers this spring, however I only have broody hens and so need to be able to pick them up within a day or two of them going broody...
With just the information above, I'd guess mites or bugs of some kind. If she has them around her belly, the other chicken may be picking them off her.
I'd check around her vent area and see what you can see. For either mites or an egg bound chicken - a warm bath is a good start.
Thought I'd share a cute photo of Blueberry and her chicks. It's her second time going broody this year, finally bought her feed store EEs when I couldn't break her. I think she likes them

Are these her babies?
If no, is she sitting in a nest box for a long time? Growling and puffing up at you and other chickens?
When you say she was 'all puffed up' that makes me think broody hen. They go broody when they want to have babies. They get mean so they can protect them.
If...
Hi Penney;
Sorry, been in meetings all day. I wish I was playing with chickens instead!
I was not planning on selling our porcelain d'uccle pullet (she is not laying yet), however, I may be persuaded if she got to stay with her closest flock mate (the rooster ).
Both were hatched on...
The initial rooster was sold, however, the second-in-line rooster is still available, and you have great timing as I was going to list him this weekend!
You can see him in photo #4, he is the rooster on the left with the smaller waddles. He is very nice, and has stayed with us for such a long...
Does anyone have day-old chicks or soon to hatch chicks in the Seattle area? I have a broody that won't quit and would love to purchase two or three day-old chicks, bantams or LF.
Or - plan b - does anyone have four indian runner duck hatching eggs?
I'm pretty sure it's because people think of you as a friend
Cannot wait to see your second coop.
Here's some eye candy - a photo of one of the Spitz chicks my broody is raising for Hallerlake
And one more...

A friend had a bunch of extra catnip, and I had read that it was one of the herbs good for nestboxes.
So I put a bunch in half of the egg laying nestboxes, so the chickens could choose herb box or non herb box. They all chose the herb boxes
I also put some at the edge of our broody girl's...
