    I could use some breed suggestions or a reality check.

    My speckled Sussex is our friendliest and favorite hen. She’s beautiful, sweet, and lays almost every day. Although her eggs are more of a cream color than and brown. I also really like my Australorp, and she would fit all of your criteria except that she’s black. But her feathers do have a...

    10 Week Old Americauna Sexing

    I’m guessing these were both boys based on their combs. Here is my 12 week old “Ameraucana” (EE). You can see how much smaller/paler her comb is.

    Salmon Favorelles - 2 weeks old

    For those following along, this chicken is about 11 weeks old now and I’m pretty confident it’s a pullet. Certainly not breed standard coloring, but I still think she’s cute.

    Barnevelder Sexing - 4.5 weeks

    Attaching updated pics because I think they are growing into the most beautiful birds! They are about 14 weeks old now. We refer to them mostly as “the twins” but the lighter one is Mary-Kate and the darker is Ashley.

    Combining Coops?

    Thanks for the input. I’m not opposed to combining and would probably prefer that. Helpful to know some of the pros and cons of having them all in 1 coop vs 2.

    Combining Coops?

    My small coop does have nesting boxes on the back but I would rather not use them. And yes, good point about separating someone.

    Combining Coops?

    Thanks. and I do want to combine the coops right? Like I shouldn’t just let them stay in the smaller coop?

    Combining Coops?

    Hello! This is my second year having chicks so my first time integrating chicks. I have 10 adult hens, 2 12ish week old chicks raised by a broody in the main coop, and 8 chicks that are 7-12 weeks old that I raised in a brooder in my garage. I acquired a second (smaller) coop and built a run...

    8 week old Salmon Favorelles

    I figured by 8 weeks if it was a cockerel the comb would be more red/pronounced. But it’s my first time with this breed and (s)he’s the only one I have so not much to compare to.
