    What a flighty hen this was! She laid beautiful light turqoise eggs. Beautiful plumage, grey with black drip spots like she was into the black paint!!

    Who else has ever had a broody White Leghorn? 🤣

    Hello everyone!!! I’m just popping in to see how many have been in the same boat as me… I’ve heard it’s relatively rare to have a truly broody White Leghorn. But I raise you… Ruth Bader Hensberg!! She’s been brooding for almost 2 weeks now. I didn’t believe she’d last, so i’m just now putting...

    Handling and picking up

    We have three eight week old girls, two Easter eggers and one Copper Maran. We were instructed to handle them as much as possible while they are young.

The problem is that they have flown out of it twice. Did not have that problem with Buff Orpington’s. Are these two breeds flighty as...

    Flighty Rooster Won't Calm Down!?!?!?

    Hi I have a 4 month old Mix breed rooster, who for some reason is extremely flighty and scared to death of anybody who comes near him!?!? I don't understand why he is like this! I am very loving towards him, and have never chased him ( except to try to catch him which always fails) , never...

    Are "flighty" and "Skittish" bad characteristics?

    I'm in it for the eggs only. I've free ranged Golden Comets, Jersey Giants and Isa Browns. They've all been good foragers and thanks to two big dogs, I've never had a predator problem. All 3 breeds are friendly and docile. I'm not convinced this is necessarilly positive. The hybrids seem to...
