Hi there. I have been keeping chickens for over a decade and have been having a huge string of bad luck recently. Most of my girls I get as day olds and raise. When they are old ebough, they go out with the main flock. I currently have 11 hens and 4 chicks who are 11 weeks old (seems likely to...
This beauty is 11 weeks old. She is much larger than the other chickens (different breeds though) and has been since a baby. No crowing, and very gentle. I really hope she's a girl, what do you think?
Hi,
I have 2 astralorps, both 11 weeks old, that look pretty different to each other. I was hoping you could help me identify their gender. Neither are crowing or seem aggressive.

My silkie is with 3 other chickens and he is quite warm compared to the other chickens but we do live in Baldivis Western Australia. and I only got them a week ago so what is wrong with him? And what should I do?
