I have a six week old rooster whose feet are literally drying up. Looks like he has extreme arthritis and his feet are just drying up completely. It’s not leg mites. I have never seen anything like this. Can anybody help me? I’ve been running warm water over it and putting lotion on it. Nothing...
OK, I realize this thread is almost 5 years old, but for anybody else interested in doing this if you’re gonna cross a bantam with a standard size chicken make damn sure that your rooster is the bantam and your hen is the standard size you can go the other way around but doing that can harm and...
I have a question is this a cross of an OEG brown red and a Sumatra? I have been planning to make my own bloodline and seriously considered the OEG and Sumatra cross.
If this is a OEG and Sumatra cross have you tried any other colors? If so, please send pictures. I am sincerely interested...
A red Pyle is a Wheaton without the colors. It is a gene inside the Wheaton in order to get red Pyle

I have the same thing happening right now. I wiped it off. It came back almost looks like little sulfur towers growing off of it looks nothing like the egg pictured below. This says it bad when I candled the egg, it looks good. I’m on day 16 of the incubation. Should I take it out like I say...
No a pea comb is not a sign of a blue egg layer if you want chicken that will lay a blue egg. You need to get that breed that lays a blue egg Easter egger, cream leg bar. Americana etc..
Ok I know this is a old post but I see some ridiculous answers Amerucana lay a blue egg.
Easter eggs on the other hand can lay any color and you will not know what color that chicken will lay until it lays his first day whatever color that egg is that’s the color all the other eggs gonna be this...
