    1st Hatch with Kebonnixs 12 egg incubator

    I know folks are always debating which incubator to use, so I thought it might be helpful to hear about my 1st hatch of the season with a new incubator. I always start my gardens on May 1 and try to hatch my 1st chicks the first week in May because the weather seems so favorable around now in...

    Who laid this egg?? 😅

    Hey there! Currently we only have two hens, one RIR from McMurray that we raised ourselves and is almostttt 15 weeks I believe (shipped out week of June 3rd and I believe we got them that Thursday), and one that we were told was a 1.5 year old maran (I didn’t ask which kind and we’re newbies to...

    Ruby or Reuben? Rhode Island Red, 5.5 weeks old, can't tell if it's a pullet....

    This chick was hatched by one of my hens 5 1/2 weeks ago. I feel like the comb on Ruby/Reuben is larger and pinker than my older RIR pullet was at 5 1/2 weeks. But there are no wattles. Its posture is usually very low to the ground, very skittish and shy. I had to make an alarm call to get the...

    Black Australorp x RIR or GSL

    Hello everyone! We just had three chicks hatch in our broody-hen pen, and I was wondering if anyone knew what these little guys are! (I know NOTHING of chicken genetics.) We have one lone rooster so it’s no question who the father is, but we have three different mother possibilities. We have...

    New to chicks and chickens

    Hi everyone, I’m new to chicks, chickens and chicken keeping. I bought 10 Red Production chicks last Friday from a place close to my home. By the following Thursday 4 died and I went back and got replacement chicks, that are now a week behind my current chicks. They are RIR and Americana chicks...

    What colors can I expect?

    I have a Rhode Island Roo with Smokey Pearl hens. Has anyone bred the mix? If so what was the color produced? I have 9 eggs in incubator and 19 under a broody hen! Just curious as what I can expect with mix.

    RIR and barred rock Gender?

    I have two barred rocks and one of them looks lighter than the other which is making me think it's a roo and my RIR is the most assertive of the bunch. I was also wanting to add a blue australorp to our flock, but are they heat hardy? were in New Orleans and it gets up to 99 here. All of them...

    Fairy Egg & Other Quirks: Should I be Concerned?

    I recently posted about my RIR Willow, who is ~ 4.5 years old. Last week, she started a habit of plucking my molting hen's blood feathers on her vent, so I had to keep her in a separation pen (still in the main run--big enough for a dust bath area, food, water, and a perch). Around that time I...

    Mid-June Molt?

    I have a flock of five hens who are all a little over 4 years old. Two of the five are starting to molt--a buff orpington and a RIR hybrid. The buff orpington had a light/mini-molt already in May, where she stopped laying for a couple of weeks and lost a small amount of feathers. This molt is...
