Every Day on my way into town I see a white cochin rooster on the side of the busy highway, I've seen him for months. I'm pretty sure he belongs to a trailer as I've seen him in their fenced in yard, either that or he jumps the fence to scratch around. I've seen no other chickens in the yard, I...

Tomorrow I'm trying my first hatch, I live in Northwest FL I was going to wait till spring but with keeping chicks in a barn I was worried about excessive heat. I'm only doing a few as the incubator advised.

You could also try to get in touch with yiour local 4-H to see if they want him.

If you have a neighbor who has chickens they might show up near their chicken pen. I never saw my neighbor's chickens till I got my own now they like to come "visit".

My 7 week old RIR have the run of a large yard now, I started to notice that one of the chickens stands with two legs, but one of the legs seems turned a funny way at the joint, however when he runs a long distance he does so on one leg, which I didn't know was possible. He's healthy in every...

In the heat I would worry about good ventilation and of course getting enough light.

Mine are 6-7 weeks and won't go more then 25 feet from their pen, unless they are following me, if I want them back in before nightfall I just put treats in the pen and they all file back in.

his legs are grayish/black, no idea about his comb his neck is sooo long I assumed he was a roo they are 6/7 weeks, the farm where I bought them claimed they we're BSL and Rhode Island Reds.

#1 is a black sex link

These are who I suspect are Roo's out of my chicks, also when I posted once befpre someone said they didn't think these we're Rhode Island Reds which is what the seller claimed they were. Any opinions welcome.

I'm so glad there wasn't a photo included in this post.

I have a black sex link Roo that is huge and mean...he kinda looks like a giant turkey vulture.

I read on another post that someone put up a line of twine with across the part of her yard where she didn't want her chickens to go, she put the twine about chicken breast high and every foot or so attached those little bells that they see as wedding favors and when a chicken would hit the...

I found a 2' rat snake on top of my pen that has my "teenagers", just a word about "relocating", please make sure it's somewhere where no one lives. I live in the country and it seems people like to drop of things on the edge of my woods...mainly cats. They eventually fine their way to me...

I'm trying to decided which Roo to keep. All my hens are RIR, I have 1 RIR Roo and 1 black sex link Roo. What would potential chicks look like I I kept the BSL?

My RIR are almost 8 weeks, no evidence he bothered them. I think if he wanted to he could have got one, I have 5 very densely wooded acres behind the coop and that's where he went. Never seen a mouse or rat but they haven't been outside long. He was very long but very skinny, not full grown I...

Not the best photo, found him curled up on top of the coop in the shade, he was maybe 2 feet long, not mature? I think he could have got inside if he wanted to. Someone said he might be a "rat snake", I live in the Florida panhandle, if I see any again should I kill them ( I would really hate...

I bought my 10 chicks from a local I know they all have the same father and I assume at least some have the same mother, I was planning on keeping 1 roo, now I've started to wonder should I get rid of them all and get a roo from another gene pool??? Does it matter with chickens? Would the new...
