This "pullet" belongs to my brother. He's afraid it's actually a cockerel. I think he said it was a Welsummer and it's maybe 8? weeks old. What do you think?

Thanks for the reply. I went and got a closer look at her and one of the other hens and I think they have lice (based on the link you supplied, thanks). I got some poultry powder from the feed store yesterday and am planning to dust them today. Thanks for your help.

I adopted three hens from some neighbors that moved about a month ago. We noticed shortly after we got them that one hen had no butt feathers. This could have happened after we got her, or she could have come like this. Today, I noticed that she has a sort of yellowish crust near her vent...

Three hens to two toddlers. I'd say maybe a cup or two of table scraps per meal. We eat vegetarian but there's a fair amount of non-veggie foods in our diets. We don't often eat out-of-the-box types of foods.

Hi everyone. I'm new to chickens and to the forums. I just adopted three hens from some neighbors that were moving and couldn't take them with. I'm thoroughly enjoying my chickens so far.

I'm new to the forum too, and also from Utah. What part of Utah are you from? I'm in Sandy.

Hey All! I just adopted these hens from my neighbors who moved. It's my first time owning chickens and I love it! I never asked her what breed these were, but here's what I think from some googling: black one is a cochin, white one is a brahma, and I have no idea what the red one would be...
