    Which breed had a non aggressive rooster?

    We currently have golden comet laying hens and almost laying ameraucana hens. We were given an ameraucana, silky, and two laced wyandottes roosters from someone that bought chicks and ended up with the roosters but only wanted hens. No issues have occurred yet but we only got them last night...

    Tree roosting & chicks

    Neighbours chickens free roam on their property and the property I live on. At night they roost in trees so I figured I'd share a few photos. We live where there are limited predators so I guess this is how they've decided to raise chickens. Seems to work well the chickens are all fairly old...

    Looking to gift my ralatives some hens/chicks. What breeds should I get?

    My relatives have a flock of mixes. Just your basic laying hen with a single comb. Problem is that they're getting quite old and don't go broody anymore. Because of that, they're not getting any new young pullets. And with the local fox visiting and taking a hen every week or so, the flock is...

    What breeds could look like this?

    Recently I've seen a lot of people selling roosters that look like this. I absolutely love the brown barred look. Are there any breeds that have brown bars like this? I've only ever seen roosters like this and never hens. I would really love a flock of brown barred chickens in the future...
