    Spartacus The Welsummer Rooster

    This is my 6 week old Welsummer cockerel. His name use to be Chicken Little, lol, but as he is getting older, and quite a bit bigger than his fellow 6 week old roommates, I changed his name to Spartacus. I have known since he was probably a week old that he wasn't looking like a pullet... By 2...

    Are my Welsummer Pullets actually Roos? Or are they even Welsummers???

    One chick much bigger than others... why?

    Hi forum - I hope you all can help! I have four chicks that I got all on the same day. They should have all been day-old chicks, especially because I went to the feed store the same day they received their new delivery of chicks. 3 of the 4 started out the same size, with 1 of the 4 (the gray...

    Broody hen?

    Hello, I just need some help with a hen that I suspect is broody. She's an 9 month old Welsummer. She becomes very aggressive and puffs up when I try to get to the nesting box and she will do nothing but sit on the eggs all day. I think she may have gone broody around 3 weeks ago but we were...

In my flock of 7 hens, my two 17 month old Welsummer hens hard molted all summer long and had just begun laying again in late November when they both stopped laying again.

According to the hatchery I got them from “Marans lay the darkest eggs of any breed“ and Welsummer are know for “the production of...
