Last week, I got 5 new baby chicks (Amberlink, ISA Brown, Maran, Easter Eggger, and Jersey Giant). The Jersey Giant was a straight run so I took the chance. A few years ago I got all pullets and still ended up with a roo. My question is how early do you notice roo behavior? I wouldn’t say his...
Ok, I know some are starlight green eggers, the white are amber links. So we have sapphire gems and prairie bluebell- but how do I tell them apart? Also the one with the number 1 and a circle around it what is that breed? And the black ones with white… they were almost completely black except...
I have a beautiful Amberlink rooster who needs a new home. We want to keep him, but can't due to laws that only allow hens in town. He was sexed as a female, but clearly is not. He is a beautiful, healthy bird. I walk into the enclosure every day, multiple times a day to give treats and keep...
Hello everyone! I didn’t realize that chicken math existed until we continued to buy more and more chickens. That being said, this little guy/gal is our 3 week old amberlink. That is what the sign said the breed is, but I don’t have a clue. This is our first go around with chickens and we love...
Hi everyone my friend gave me this fella cuz they didn't want another rooster. But I was wondering is he actually a rooster? The rest of his flock I got him from were eaten. I'm glad I took him in my other 8 chickens are about 4 months old and they peck him so I keep him in house for now. He...
Hi all! We just got some lovely little additions to our chicken family today! Two amberlinks, one production blue, and one rhode island red. Got them at the local feed store. They look bigger than I remember our last chicks from a couple years ago were.. I could be wrong but wouldn’t mind some...
3 Amberlinks are 6 months old laying large dark brown eggs, Wyandotte and Barred Rock 5 months and one is laying a very small light tan eggs. But the sweet sweet Silkie (Pearl) has all of a sudden started crowing, biting, and trying to mount the much larger Ambers! So Pearl seems to be Paul...
Hello all,
My name is Joanna and I’m new to chickens and country living since 2017.
From suburbia Greenville to NYC and then to rural Greenville I’ve finally found a slower pace once I get home and I love it!
So chickens, brand new to them. Bought 4 Amberlink laying hens at 6 months old from...
Couldn't find the exact month i bought our 3 black sexlink and 3 amberlink chicks at a Tractor Supply in spring, but they're all at sexual maturity now, though the hens haven't begun laying yet.
However as the chicks matured, 2 began to display every male chicken characteristic, and yet every...
Hey Y'all!
Got these "pullets" back in the very end of March. 3 Black Aussies, 3 Amberlinks...supposed to all be pullets. I have one Aussie who is small, but ballsy as all get out, and with a flipped tail, and LOUD. She's also highly inquisitive. She talks the most smack all the time, and...
