    Barred Rock Bullying

    Good day. We have a flock of 11 hens 11 months old. 5 Barred Rock and 6 RIR’s. The BR’s are chasing the RID’s off the feed and water. One RIR is picked on by all the birds. We tried sprays, peepers and separation but the Barred Rock just won’t stop picking on the Reds. Our coop is 8 x 10 and...

    Chicks first night in coop

    I have some new chicks that are about five and a half weeks old. They’ve been staying in my room with me since I got them, but what I had them in was getting a bit too small for them. I put them in the run tonight with the big girls in a dog crate. I’m going to introduce them using the playpen...

    Which is which?

    Two eggs hatched today. The father of both is barred rock but one mother is ISA brown and the other is Cinnamon Queen. Can you tell me which is which?

    Newest baby!

    The first of the eggs our Malia is sitting in have hatched! This one is the cross of a black cochin mother and barred rock father. Any name suggestions?

    Chicks going away from the heat source. Why?

    I now have 3 Barred Rocks because I sadly lost one to unknown events. One thing I realize from my Barred rocks is that they tend to stray away to the heat lamp. They are only 4 days old so they should need a lot of warmth, yet they are going away from their source of heat. I'm thinking my 4th...

    Sold as "AZURE" mix?(+ the rest for fun) 5 week picutre for now (WILL UPDATE)

    Just to be clear, I understand it is probably too early to tell what sex these dudes are, I have my guesses, but I'm a total noob when it comes to chickens. I'm mostly curious what this chicken (chicken #1) really is because I have a feeling like "azure" isn't actually a recognized breed. I...

    My Little Flock

    So we've had our girls (hopefully all are girls) since 03/28/21, and we believe they were somewhere around 5 days old when we got them. Based on their development they seem to be almost 4 weeks old now. They had a field trip outside and we finally got some better photos! I'll do individual...

    Breed and gender?

    I got some pullets labeled Asian Black's from TSC, and this one started showing different coloring than the others. It looks like a barred rock to me, but just wanting to verify. Also, unsure of the gender. It's about 6 weeks in the photos.

    Pasty butt in barred rocks only

    Hello! This is our first time raising chicks! We have 13 total and a variety of breeds (Easter eggers, barred rocks, and some brown ones). All from the same local hatchery delivered to our local feed store. We brought them home 3 days ago and initially just one had pasty butt and now 2 more...

    Is this a barred rock?

    We adopted two barred rocks, sexed to be pullets. However, while one of the pullets’ feathers are coming in normal, the other one’s feathers are coming in a little different colored, not having the distinctive pattern. I’m guessing that purchasing them from TSO might have something to do with...
