rhode island red

Hi I have two beautiful Rhode Island Red hens. They are 2.5 years old. They live in 4-hen coop in the backyard of my MIL's house currently. I got them while we were living with the parents and had since moved to a new place this summer. My mother in law is very fond of the hens and she tried...

Hi all, I’m fairly new to this community and I was hoping to have some more experienced eyes look at my chooks who I’m worried may be roosters (unable to keep them on residential properties in my area). They’re about 12 weeks old now and I haven’t heard any crowing yet, but due to colouration...
