Plus i only feed them organic scraps. I tell my roommates to throw thier food away. Literally won’t feed my chickens what most people feed themselves. If i won’t eat it. I won’t feed it. Let’s get this fox fire lore underway!

Nah… they get treats literally like 4 times a day. I feed them leftover bread like every other day. I just never pick up sourdough. Let’s not come to conclusions until we test this hypothesis!

So my rooster crows all day every day. Super loud and annoying. Today i tossed the flock some sourdough pieces of bread and since then he’s been pretty quiet all day. Like, insanely quiet compared to his usual behavior. I have to pick up more bread but if anyone out there has some left over...

I didn’t really know what to title this. This is a weird issue I’m noticing. When all my hens run then hold their head strait and just beam. But one of my spitzhaubens seems to have her head bob out of control back n forth when she starts to try n run but then has to stop and rebalance. She’s...

I did and pretty much got people lying about not eating them. I just took care of two myself and only had one of my buddies take another. I might be able to manage what i got now tho

Damn that’s a good looking boy right there

If she is eating a drinking fine i wouldn’t think she has any sickness. I‘ve honesty never heard of antibiotics helping a chicken that already was having problems. I’d personally try putting some organic with mother apple cider vinegar and some garlic in her water and using “thePoultryStore”...

I use poultry store herb mixes and water down the food and put that in there i overdose it quite a bit along with garlic and ACV in the water. For crop issues i soak some bread with olive oil. Usually all that in combo will push anything out. Good luck with it all

They’re all pretty boys in need of a home with some ladies to protect haha

I have some crossbred roosters all good boys. Need a new home i hatched too many. All stem from Wheaton Americauna mixed with barred rock, Maran and silver laced Wyandotte. From there the barred mix bred and made more roosters mixed with French copper Maran barnvelder turken and Wyandotte and...

I have some ready to breed roosters if you’re interested. Americauna/barred rock mix, Am/silver laced Wyandotte mix, French copper/barred/am mixed, midnight majesty Maran/am mixed. All nice boys they’ve been around very young children and never attacked. I have too many roosters and I’d love for...

If you need a rooster to help guard your flock let me know! I’d even deliver if you’re close. I’m in east central Wisconsin

They are pretty big boys too

I have a bunch of Plymouth barred rock Americauna mix roosters I’m about to butcher but if you want them for free please take them! Depending on where you live I’d make the drive tonite maybe. They are all of age to fertalize

Dang! Sounds similar! I love watching them too! Great ornaments!
