I am new to chickens and have a small flock of 7 hens and 1 rooster (started with 8 non-sexed chicks). My Rhode Island Red rooster "Eric" is fairly tame. He has chased my boys, but they are learning to stand up to him, plus my German Shepherds protect them (non-violently and semi-hilariously)...
Hello, when one of my hens became broody, my kids convinced me to get three chicks to make her happy. I ended up with a straight run and two grew up to be roosters. They’re about seven months old now and crow back and forth nonstop. They get along with each other as brothers and rarely...

Hi, I'm new to posting here, though I've been reading this forum for a while now, and it's always so helpful! Now I'm looking for a bit of guidance/support, as our beautiful Buckeye rooster broke his leg somehow this past weekend. We were away when it happened, and our neighbor was tending the...

Pepper (his name) wounds are healing in speed whereas the huge patches at the back and under the wing are goin to take time. What should I feed him/her to not just heal but gain strength quickly & be warm during this cold.
[I'm grateful to all those who reached out to guide me.]
I am deciding which breed rooster to add to my flock and saw a beautiful photo online of a BPR roo that had some blue tail feathers. Is that common or did someone cross BPR with another breed to achieve that?
thanks!
Not sure of exact breed but we were told he was a bantam hen. My daughter raised him from just a couple days old and named him Lilly. Just found out Lilly is not a female. Have renamed him Bob. We live in the city and cannot keep him unfortunately. We are devastated but he has to go. He's very...
Hi,
I have a Plymouth rock chicken. I thinks he’s a rooster but he’s not crowing like the others and he’s much calmer and is never involved in any of the pecking. I know some hens of this breed have combs and wattles so I’m unsure.
What do you think?
This is my rooster Captain Milo, I hatched him and 5 other chicks from eggs which was given to me. He is about 6th months old, a very gentle boy and so handsome! Thing is I have no idea what breed he is. The other 5 chickens I have already identified, but not him. The farm which I got the eggs...
Hi,
Have what I think are 3 boys - grey, black and white and two girls - white and brown.
Have no idea on breeds, and would like to know if my assumptions on the genders are correct!
What I think is a rooster (the black one with white bits - doesn’t crow like the other two and is VERY calm so...
We have three beautiful Black Copper Maran cockerels who were hatched in September who are getting ready for their own flocks. They free range and have been raised on non-GMO feed. Does anyone have advice on finding them good homes? I recognize re-homing roosters can be tough as not everyone is...
I’m sorry this is probably a common problem among northern chickens but my rooster has a blister on the top part of his comb and the entire comb is looking quite pale. We had a night that reached 3F the other day and last night maxed out around 10F. I’m assuming it’s the start of frostbite. What...
Hi I rescued two baby chicks (males) maybe 1-2 day old with my indoor pet Roosters but they probably not liking them and not accepting them one of my rooster tootoo is actually behaving like " Quite , Sad Or Nervous Seeing The chicks "
What should I do to let them accept as their kid or...
