Got this chicken and was told it was a pullet, but now at 14-16 weeks or so it’s mounting one of my silkies all the time. It’s at the bottom of the pecking order so I don’t think it’s just a dominance thing. Looks like a golden laced Wyandotte to me but was told it’s an Easter egger. I just...
So, my friends went for a bush walk up in the Perth hills and found this lil cutie. As I'm known as the crazy chicken lady, they bring it to me.
I determinded that its a Golden Laced Wyandotte, about 4 weeks old, but unsure if it's a rooster or a hen.. as they found it in the bush Im worried it...
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I am completely new to chickens! My grandmother grew up with my great grandmother and they raised meat birds, and lived off the grid homesteading.
I got my first chickens late April this year.
(2) How many chickens do you have right...
Chicken in a Bucket - My yorkie, Pingo has a couple Golden Laced Wyandottes as pals (Marcelo and Amir). They hangout and play together. They also share treats (Milk Bone Marrows, Baby Bel cheese, etc.) The other day Marcelo decided to get into a five gallon Home Depot bucket. The attached...
We have a 14 week old Golden Laced Wyandotte rooster. We purchased him with our other pullets at one day old but it’s obvious now we have a roo and are unable to keep him. We would love to rehome him as quickly as possible! We are located in the greater Charlotte, NC area. I’ve attached a few...
Today my dad and I were out at Tractor Supply running some errands. We didn’t expect there to be chicks there so late in the season, but there were over a dozen left in one container. One guy bought 10 since his flock of chickens are older and no longer laying. We started talking a
Our flock is...
Hello :frow wanted to jump right in! I will soon to be the proud mother of 6 polish eggs. Hoping to receive Khaki & Cuckoo colors? I have a broody hen right now, her name is Stella, she is a Golden Laced Wyandotte, fat and sassy and if memory serves me 2 seasons old. Never in my wildest...
It's my first time getting Wyandotte's so I have no idea how to sex them. We got this one at a place that didnt take the best care of them, they said it was 90% pullets but I'm not sure how accurate that was.
Hey ya'll,
We were under the impression that we purchased 3 Barr Rock baby chicks from TSC. There was an issue with one of their brooders so they had to shuffle chicks around and therefore all the signage didn't make it to the corresponding chicks. By order of elimination we felt that they were...
We adopted two hens a bit more than a month ago so I guess it's time to stop lurking on this site. Our adoptees are Ella (an "Easter Egger") and Cleopatra (a Golden Laced Wyandotte), but we have an order in for three Silver Laced Wyandotte chicks, ETA early December. Am currently building a coop...
Hey everyone! I recently purchased what are supposed to be 3 barnevelder pullets from a local hatchery. I can't have a rooster where I live, so I'm a little obsessive watching them for any ideas of what they might end up being, and looking through all the photos online, I'm starting to suspect...
I have numbered the chicks in the pictures. I need to sex 2 wyandottes, 2 california whites, and 1 lavender orpigton. Im pretty sure the lavender is a pullet. I am having trouble with the other 4 because i know california whites mature fast and have large red combs as hens too. And i know...
I am curious when the best time to post pictures of my chicks is. I need some help sexing them, but I don't want to try too early. I am already second guessing myself constantly lol my chicks are currently 7.5 weeks old. I have 2 California whites, 2 lavender orpingtons, and 2 golden laced...
