    I need help!!

    Back story, my brother in law went about an hour away to a massive hatchery and bought about 10 different breeds of baby chicks some of which were for us, when he got home some started dying and of course some were the ones we wanted, so the breeds kinda got mixed up, we ended up with only 2...

    Chicken Math & Genetics Experiments in Southeast Missouri

    I recently left city life & corporate America after 20+ years and moved to rural southeast Missouri, to restart/rebuild the family farm where my dad grew up. I got my first chickens --4 Dominique hens and a Rooster--from Cackle Hatchery in June 2019. I thought I might expand the flock in 2020...

    What breeds are these?

    I ordered 3 black stars, an Easter Egger, an Olive Egger, and a Cuckoo Maran. I can only identify one Black Star in the group. The one with gray feathers and a black head is much fluffier and has wider feathers than the rest. She is quite standoffish.The multi gray one looks like a pigeon and...

    New to Backyard Chickens Website. Excited & Need Help/Opinion:) :)

    Hi Everyone! We brought home pullets 4 years ago and have enjoyed the experience without much drama or challenges. We've decided to grow the family and just brought home two little baby chicks and are quickly realizing, they need A LOT more specialized care than our pullets did! They are so dang...

    Olive Egger

    Hey all, I'm new here so I'm hopefully posting this in the right place! We recently started our third flock of backyard birds and ended up with one rooster who was named Big Mama before we knew (oops)! For those wondering, we are definitely keeping his name Big Mama. We are interested in...

    Second Opinion please!

    This is my first year with any chicks that havent been sexlink production reds of some kind or already sexed pullets, so while I'm pretty confident about some, I'm nervous about my guessing! There has been no crowing yet... My Olive Egger is 20weeks... maybe 21, but out of the 8 I had, I was...

    13 Week Old Olive Egger Cockerel - MA

    Making a new update post because we're having trouble finding Parsley a new home. If anyone in my area has any suggestions please let me know. We are willing to drive a reasonable distance to re-home him. We've reached out to the MSPCA and they told us they prefer we find him a new home...

    Looking for people experienced with wheaten ameraucana mixes to help sex my chicks!

    I have 1 wheaten ameraucana, and 3 olive Eggers from the same breeder. They are wheaten ameraucana and I think maran mix. They have feathered feet and pea combs light slate colored legs. I think I've come the conclusion at least 1 is a blue wheaten cockerel. I'd like confirmation on the others...

    Help me figure out my mystery 5-toed chicken?

    I bought 2 mystery chicks yesterday. They're a week old. They have the sweetest chipmunk markings, hairy legs, and one has 5 toes! Likely some sort of cross? What might they grow up to be? I just love them so much!

    8 Week Old Olive Egger Roo - MA

    We would love to keep him, but unfortunately we aren't allowed to given we live in the burbs. He's been crowing already for a couple weeks - he's super friendly so far as we've been handling them and hand feeding them pretty often. We got him from our local Agway and I believe they get their...

    We have 8 chickies, all different varieties, but are most worried about these two. Any guesses? Here’s our straight run Lavender Orpington, Meredith Grey. Also, any thoughts on her feathers? I know they can be slow to develop, and she certainly has been. Here she is weekly: Here is our...

    Rooster or Hen....

    I’ve recently added 4 pullets to the chicken family. We got two pairs from two different breeders. Two of my girls are no doubt hens, but the other two are beginning to be a little questionable. I got these two from the same breeder, who told me they were the same age. I think my Ameraucauna...
