    I put my EE bully in jail for relentlessly going after an ex-broody. Did I do the right thing?

    I have 6 pullets: Favaucana is top (a benevolent ruler, rarely enforces using anything other than a side-eye, which works very well), bully EE is 2nd, 2 more EEs in the middle who sometimes join in the mean girl hazing but are usually peaceful and 2 OE Welsummer x Cream Legbar at the bottom...

    Who laid this egg?

    I have 3 young hens (approximately 5 months old): a speckled sussex, a Buff orpington and an Easter Egger. I also have a 1.5 y/o welsummer who has been laying lovely brown speckled eggs consistently. The other day we got a light-colored, speckled egg that was definitely a different color than...

    Can Belgian D'anvers live with other breeds?

    Hello, I have just bought a pair of Belgian D'anvers. Currently I already have silkie hens, a silkie cockerel, a legbar hen, a welsummer cross silkie hen and silkie cross light Sussex hens. Would they be able to live together with the Belgian D'anvers? Or as there is a size difference will the...

    Hello from East Haddam CT

    We have a small flock of 5 hens and 1 rooster in our backyard--2 barred rocks, 1 silver laced Wyandotte, 1 buff Orpington, and 2 Welsummers. We will probably be adding new chicks next Spring, and I would love to split an order to save on shipping, etc., if anyone is close. Alternatively, if you...

    4 month old Welsummer :: Cockeral or Pullet??

    Hello, chicken people!! Is our little Cricket a cockeral or a pullet?? He/she is exactly 4 months old (hatched from Meyer on 5/10/17), has always been chatty since she was two days old, and is the leader of the pack. She also is very vocal but doesn't do the traditional cock-a-doodle-do crow...

    Welsummer or what?

    I purchased 6 pullets about month ago. They were in an egg layer mix I have for sure an Australorp, 2 red sexlink, and a RiR but the other two I can't figure out. They are also quite a bit larger than the others. I was told that Leghorn and welsummer were both in there but they don't seem...

    Looking for hen chicks

    Thanks for adding me. My question is to the breeders out there. I placed an order with a hatchery before I read this forum and found out that breeders such as are found on this website produce genetically superior chickens than hatcheries do. I'm looking for six friendly, quiet hens to start a...

    Hello from Central Oregon!

    It's been several years since we owned chickens, and now we're back at it!! We're just putting the finishing touches on our coop and 20' run. We have 6 girls... if we're lucky. We ordered day-old pullets from Meyer Hatchery and had 100% success last time around, but we're wondering if we have...

    New Members from Tampa, FL

    My wife and I have always loved the BYC forum, but for some reason just never signed up. We had our first go round with chickens in our back yard of about a third of an acre for a year about 4 years ago and then had to sell it all when we had to move. After building up the nerve to ask our...

    What is the yellow one?

    our chicks came today!! I think I've figured out who is who based on what I ordered. But the yellow one I think is my bonus chick. Is it a golden comet?

    Aggressive Welsummer Rooster needs home

    Our Welsummer Rooster is just too aggressive to have around my toddlers. He's about 1 year old and has successfully fathered chicks. He is a wonderful protector to his flock (we haven't lost a bird to predators since he grew up) and coexists successfully with other breeds and with ducks. We are...

    Hatching Dark Eggs

    Hatching dark eggs can be very iffy, and a lot of people experience difficulty with them, particularly when the eggs were shipped. I sand my eggs when they are shipped, especially when they are VERY dark. I only sand until I'm just through the color, and then I mist the eggs with a...
