So you think they will definitely lay this year?

Would it be possible for them to lay into the fall? We do live in Florida where it's hot up until about November

I've tried to search for this, with no results. I have 26 week old polish bantams and they aren't laying yet. When should I expect them to lay? I just got them two weeks ago and they weren't laying at their previous home.

If I'm breeding polish bantams, is there a chance a random chick will be born with frizzle feathers? The breeder I got my WC chocolates from said she had been breeding frizzles at some point, but didn't state any relationship between those and the smooths I have, so there may be some genes there...

Oh okay I was worried for fowl pox! My old hens had it last winter and it was a nightmare

I got a polish hen from someone today. She is about six months old. After quickly examining them when I got home I saw one had a weird scab on the nostrils/beak area. I got another few polish along with this one, these ones and the affected hen all seem healthy weight and happy and have good...

It's okay, thank you for telling me! I don't really need 6 roosters 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

He's got greenish saddle feathers coming but.. Is the little one I posted a cockerel then? 😩😩

I tried to include as many pics as possible. Any ideas on this one? I think the rest are cockerels, holding out for this one. Not sure of age thinking 5 weeks-ish. Thanks!

I'm not sure if gold lace can be color sexed when feathered, because I see a lot of hens are actually gold and a lot of roosters are actually rust color. But I would like to know everyone's opinion on this stunner from the SR bin at Tractor Supply. About 10-14 days old

I am lucky, he is eating and drinking. He can move his head but not his neck so he is eating a lot but I have to take his head out of the bowl and let him have some water. He moved his wings a little while he was eating this last time. I have to work tomorrow and I'm worried about him being...

My polish too had some leftover eggs after his elector psp treatment over the last couple weeks. I decided to just coat them with tea tree oil just in case they were viable. When I did this, some dripped in my roosters mouth. He was sleepy afterwards but walking and eating. I brought him inside...

Okay thank you! They're both very friendly, wish I had got more barred rocks!

I tried to get good pics but it's hard since they move around so much. In the face pics where I'm holding them the chick in question has black on the beak. It's the smaller one of the two and doesn't have good tail feathers yet but the other does. I just wanted to add also the bigger one who is...

Did it end up being pullet?

This is Pretty (maybe Pretty Boy lol) s/he is a couple days shy of 5 weeks old and is starting not to look like the other barred rock I got in the same order. So I'm suspecting a boy? I tried to get some varying pics but they weren't being too cooperative. Thanks for any help.

I was watching my chickens today and they were coming out of the pen and one came out and I didn't even realize it was "orange" until all the others came out. The redness seems to come and go? Sometimes it's red and like calms down to pinkish after he/she has been out around me a while. I wonder...

Aw thank you! I guess I should have mentioned they are jersey Giants I guess I didn't But woohoo! if they're all pullets that's great. Guess I will find out for sure in a few months. "Orange" is very red in person I should mention. I only began to second guess because "green" is starting to look...

So you all told me two weeks ago "blue" and "orange" are roosters and "pink" and "green" are pullets. I am going to try to get rid my roos (trade for pullet) this weekend so I really need to know for sure...because I love all of them and really don't want to have to re-home any of them. I'm...

Not sure why we are talking about run security? :idunno I have to re-home the roosters because of where I live. I can only have hens or if the roosters wore the collars then the neighbors wouldn't be bothered. It doesn't have anything to do with their pen. And I guess I do have to re-home at...
