    Can't identify!!!

    A few days ago I got a few new chicks for my anniversary. Was supposed to be 3 ISA Brown pullets and 3 assorted bantams (un-sexed). One ISA doesn't look like the ones I've had prior (lost to a mink). TSC says they are roughly 10 days old already? Thanks in advance for any input! ISA? 2 bantams...

    Hello! New to Forum, but not to Chickens...

    Hello Everyone! In the 90's my mum made a "deal" with my best mate and I ---- IF we did this chore and activity and could prove that we understood how to care for chickens, she would purchase two for each of us. These were my first chickens: a tiny Bantam, who turned out to be a rooster Rudy...

    Considering an A Frame design for my bantams.

    How do you like your a frame coop? My idea is to have the bottom as an enclosed run and put the roosts and nesting boxes enclosed I part of the upper structure. Seeking experience, advice, and maybe pics if you have them. I have 10 bantams right now in a brooder but they’re straight run so best...

    Multiple Coops, shared run? Silkies...

    My wife wants silkies. I don't want to take the chance of a poor integration on a bird that has the deck stacked against it from the angle of the exposed brain, the lack of roost, possibly impeded vision from the crest... So, if there is a big enough run, say 20 sf/bird, and a separate coop...

    We need help sexing these two bantams

    We got two bantams and they were straight runs, but we'd like to know what their genders are. If anyone could please help, we'd greatly appreciate it! This one is about 10 or 11 weeks And this one is about 9 weeks

    What Breeds Are My Bantams from TSC

    I got 9 bantam babies yesterday from Tractor Supply. They’re roughly 5-7 days old from what I’ve been told (but they maybe seem a little closer to 1 1/2- 2 weeks based on their wing feathers). I think I have somewhere between 5-6 breeds. Let me know if you have any idea what they are! (I added...

    Mixing Bantams with regular chicks

    I have a few concerns because I just brought 8 bantams home to add to the 6 chicks I have already. One of them is a silkie and already is being pulled and dragged by a bigger chick by its feet. I separated her and I'm not sure what to do about that. The other problem I have is that one of the...

    Identifying Bantam Chicks

    This is my first time posting so I hope my picture links work. I brought these littles home from the mixed bantam bin at our local Tractor Supply. I can't wait to see what they look like fully grown. Does anyone have an idea of what breeds I got? #1 is the only feather foot, but no fifth toe...

    Black Bantams... Breed?

    Can anyone enlighten us as to the breeds of our bannies?! 2 are dark. 2 are light. All have black feet. All have feathered feet. Three of them have 5 toes on each foot. The last one has four, (one of the dark ones). We can't tell yet, but it seems they may not have single combs and we don't...

    Hello! I have some questions regarding bantams.

    Hello, tomorrow I am getting 4 bantams from Family, Farm and Home (like TSC) but I have some questions. I live in a very open basement (full sized windows, two almost 7by5 feet, 1/2 underground if that makes sense.) The only rooms closed off are the laundry toom and the bedrooms. I have 6 pet...
