I think this little sweetheart is a mille fleur d'uccle boy? from the look of it's tail but at 7ish weeks old there isn't much of a comb.... ?
This one is a blue wheaten ameraucana and I THINK it might be a boy too because the light brown around the neck is getting darker
but it's tail...
Hi I have all of these breeds plus Coronation Sussex chicks and wanted to know if anyone has pictures of theirs at a few weeks old /less than 2 months????? PULLETS AND COCKERELS PLEASE!!!!
Thanks soooo much!
OUCH!! I was hand feeding some of my chicks today and it hurt because their beaks are really sharp One hopped on my arm and his nails were scratching me everywhere, and now I have little marks all over my arm... So I wanted to know if I should put like a big rock/brick in their brooder so they...
I got new chicks! Again! Well first i got 3 d'uccles and 2 seramas.... now 3 CORONATION SUSSEX! and 4 BLUE WHEATEN AMERAUCANAS!!!!!!!
The coronations and ameracaunas are 1 week old and the seramas and d'uccles are a month now.
Ummm I don't know if anyone else's chicks do this ...... but mine do this weird thing right before they poop.
They pull their wings back and above their head, stretch out their neck, and make a BIG POOP
That's how I know they're about to poop on me
How about your chicks?
I have 5 three week old bantam chicks that are really tiny! About the size of a standard day old.
I am getting about 18 standard chicks next week. I was thinking about putting them together? Will that be ok?
How can I make sure the younger standards get enough heat while not overheating the...
You know how chicks usually separate and run in circles like crazy when you stick your hands in the brooder right?
Well yesterday when I stuck my hand in, one of the bantams hopped on my hand! Surprised me a little but was so cute!
It started to fall asleep (the chick AND my hand!) when all of...
I don't know if I asked this before but if I feed them commercial feed do I need to supply grit? Also people say they use sand for chicks as grit... what kind? and until how old?
Thanks
Anyone breed the french variety in or even near the Bay Area??
I just want 2 pullets(if you can sex them) or 3 or 4 chicks if you can't.
I'm already raising bantams right now and am expecting standard chicks on July 20th.
So if you're a breeder and already set eggs in the incubator to hatch on...
I'm really curious about this... It seems awesome to mix in with their bedding.
I plan on using sand and mixing this in with it INSIDE the coop. Has this worked to keep away pests???
I think while I was reaching for my chick it threw up some clear goo? I just played with them it was really cute
I'd dip 2 or 3 fingers in the water and put a few droplets on the wall of the brooder and they'd peck at it like CRAZY!!
I mixed the water with some Gatorade so maybe it drank too...
I want to paint the interior and exterior of my coop and I don't have a clue which brand is safe to use on the inside and durable on the outside.
Which brand(s) worked for you and your chickens??? Thanks
People say if you think there is something wrong with your chick(s) you should give them a boost with sugar water or gatorade mixed with water.
How much sugar should you put in there water??? Also even when only 1 or 2 chicks are not well, can you feed the whole group (6chicks) the sugar water/...
I have 3 Seramas and 3 Mille Fleurs chicks and 5 are doing great! But there is this one Serama who is the smallest of the whole group who doesn't look like she's doing so well....
They are all about a week old and all have their wing feathers and some tail feathers...except this one slow...
