Sorry if I forgot someone wasnt on...
I’m looking to rehome our 2 cockerels, we love them but they have been way too aggressive to our older goose and as it’s coming into egg laying season we fear they may break eggs or attack newly hatched goslings 😢
I’m hoping to find a new home for them to go to but not sure where to turn for...
It is almost 12 weeks and has been significany larger than all of its flock mates since about week 6 or 7. The rest of them barely have any comb to speak of that are of similar breeding. I’m thinking it’s a roo but curious if anyone else could weigh in from these photos.
Thanks!
Just want to take a quick sec to rant about how HORRIBLE my pullet-to-cockerel ratio is! :he
In my first batch of 20 hatchery chicks, only 7 were pullets (and one was eaten by a neighbor's dog. :hit)
My batch of 10 hatchery ducks only had 2 hens (and one of them doesn't lay, so basically one...
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I have kept chickens for over a decade. I was in my early twenties.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
21
(3) What breeds do you have?
I currently have 6 ISA Browns, 3 Welsumers, and 12 Pearl Star, all females
I have...
So my questions are this:
1: why Is my cockerel (6 months old) pecking the back of (only) one of my pullet’s head & back?
2: when will he calm down?
3: can I get him cartrated? If so, will it kill him?
4: what can I give to my pullet & cockerel flock as a treat every now & then
5: my ??? X...
I have several chickens for sale (or free, depending). I'm willing to travel up to an hour away to get them to a new home (especially the cockerels) and I'm based in Memphis, TN, so if you're in Arkansas or Mississippi we can probably work something out. I'm hoping to add pictures later...
Im trying to figure out what my chickens genders are. They’re 6 weeks old. I have a Silver Laced Wyandotte, a Barred Rock, a Golden Sex-link, and a Sapphire Gem. I think my Barred Rock is a pullet and possibly my golden sex- link, but I’m unsure about my Silver Laced Wyandotte and Sapphire...
Selling beautiful black mottled serama pullets & cockerels in pairs only. Some are near POL. Grandfather produced many champions. Every chick hatched by this crew has been outstanding.
Hi! I’m staring to get worried that one of my girls is a roo :( I’d keep a rooster anyway, but I was really hoping to have all girls. I got them from My Pet Chicken (Snowy Easter Eggers). One of my girls (or maybe boy I guess) is a bit bigger than the others (funny because she was the smallest...
I have 2 cockerels and 2 pullets that are now 4 months old. That's when I normally integrate into my flock, but I'm normally integrating pullets only, or just one cockerel with a couple pullets. They have been living in an adjacent coop and run since they were about 6 or 7 weeks old, so they...
Any guesses on my two Silkies, Barred Rock and I assume a Cochin or Brahma bantys? The white silkie doesn't have a comb showing yet but has some hair-do going on. The black or blue? (not sure the difference) one has more of a comb showing from what I can tell. I know Silkies are hard to sex and...
