    Booted Bantam Beauties- Westchester, NY

    We have 2 young Bantam Roosters that we need to rehome. They are very sweet, just a little loud for our neighbors. Since they are bantams, they will stay small. And the furry feet are so cute! Great pets!

    Is this a rooster?

    I’m pretty positive this is a rooster but I just want some more input. He has been trying to crow for about a week now, not quite successfully though lol aside from that, look wise, would you say he is a rooster? He is 9 weeks old, will be 10 weeks old in a few days.

    Introduced 3 two month old roosters to my flock… chasing hens away from food, water and even the coop.

    Hello! We’re pretty new to having chickens. And this forum always has amazing information. We’ve had chickens for a little less than a year. We raised up 9 hens and 1 rooster from chicks (all together). One hen and the rooster were old English game bantams (or silver duckwing bantams). The...

    Eye Infection in Silkie Rooster

    This has been going on for a little under a week - I noticed his eye was irritated about 6 days ago but it’s progressively (and rather rapidly) gotten worse. Tonight it was swollen shut and I could barely get anything in. I have been trying to routinely flush it out with saline and putting...

    What's wrong with my rooster?

    My rooster has lost over 2/3 of its head feathers in the last 3 days. I don't know if that can happen with an illness or if it's more likely he's getting picked on. He's hanging out more with the ducks, which is what he did last time he was getting bullied, but I don't know. Last time (last...

    Posting him/her again with a few weeks more development (8 weeks old). What do you think—hen or roo?

    He/she is definitely a bit of a loner from the other 5 but recently had some sort of leg deformity or growing pains (according to the vet) that caused trouble walking so that might be part of it. His/her comb is definitely more pink than the others but it was a hatchery mix up so I’m still...
