Good morning! I was wondering when did everyone’s girls start to lay? I have two Rhode island reds, two prairie bluebell easter eggers, and two light bramahas that are 16 weeks and I have a buff orpington, white leghorn, and americana easter egger that are 8 weeks. This is my first personal...
My light Brahma rooster is now attacking all the hens and my other rooster pulling feathers aggressively. I tried to give him a chance and basically separated him for a bit and when I let him back out he was right back at it.
He is a little over 4 months
is there any way to stop this...
Today I got 2 new additions to my flock...Light Brahma hens!! I've been looking for this breed for ages. They are very rare where I live. Finally got these 2 from a breeder. They are 6 months at the moment. Any advice or tips on how to properly raise these ladies? And when do they start laying...
I have gathered 25 laying hens over the past couple of months. 9 were younger pullets and the rest were laying prior to me acquiring them. I am getting 5-7 eggs a day. Is this normal?
They have access to oyster shell and get layer crumbles.
I hatched some chicks that are now 12 weeks old. In unsure of the sex on two of them. One of the chickens in question is a light brahma and the other is a cross between a light brahma and partridge cochin. I couldn't get good pic of the crossbred chicken's tail so I'll try again tomorrow.
Hi everyone! I’m new here. I’m a middle age guy that live near Houston, TX. Trying to build up a new flock. Pesky raccoons destroyed my last flock. Incubating new light Brahmas, even bought a cabinet incubator that’s way fancier than I needed. Found one very cheap, need to find a way to build or...
Good day! I am new to raising chickens and received my chickens from Cackle Hatchery in mid April 2020. I ordered 5 white brahmas and they sent a bonus white rock. The white rock started laying in October followed by one light Brahma. They both laid for a couple of weeks have have not laid an...
Hello. I got two 4 months old light brahma on July 6, and it's been a while now but they didn't show any sign of egg laying. (They are around 33 weeks old now)
Ps. The chicken that in the picture is not the same chicken
Four and a half month old beautiful light Brahma rooster needs a new home. Ordered all pullets, but this one turned out to be a cockerel. Very calm and sweet. Will eat out of your hand if you let him. We just don't want a rooster in our flock.
About 10 miles west of Kalamazoo.
This is Pikachu. (my daughter named him/her). I thought it was a cock but now I'm almost thinking it's a pullet. The hackle feathers are really the only tell I have at this point and nobody in my family has any idea. We got Pikachu about a week after mothers day, so he/she is about 7 weeks old...
My chicks are now 6 weeks old
I ordered them online with 4 light brahmas. But have no idea what the other 4 from the “rare breed“ package are. They couldn’t tell me either lol
Any ideas?
Any thoughts?
Loud from the beginning. Just started reddening up but not the top of the pecking order because I have another large EE cockerel in the group.
Hello I’m new to having chicks and I first started with 6 chicks but 3 ended up being pretty obvious roosters, anyway they got sent back. I am now down to 3 chicks. Chick #1 is 8 week old buff Orpington ( I have my doubts on the breed). Chick #2 is 7 weeks old light Brahma ( which is probably...
Hello! After many years of going onto this site to troubleshoot and learn, I decided to join the community! I’m a chicken and guinea owner from New York and we’ve owned chickens on and off in the past years. However, this year our flock is bigger than ever and I’m very excited to watch them grow...
