    Sreama chickens

    I'm looking for a serama rooster and hen. I would prefer 1 year old or younger but I don't have a problem with up to 2 years old. I don't have a color preference, any color will be fine. I live in Tipton IN and I'm willing to drive about 80 miles in any direction. PM me if you have either a hen...

    Sounds like a good idea. Thanks

    Feathers not returning after molting

    They do a great job of keeping the coop and run clean. So I ruled out pests or disease.

    Feathers not returning after molting

    That's what I thought. They put protection on the back of the other hens. Would separating the rooster from the hens be a good idea.

    Feathers not returning after molting

    These are not great pictures but the black you see is skin. They are being fed manna high protein feed from tractor supply.

    Feathers not returning after molting

    My neighbors chickens molted and they returned to laying eggs but their feathers are not returning. They have tried protecting them from the rooster but that wasn't the problem. They also changed the feed to higher protein and that did not work. I'm trying to help them out but I have never had...

    Feeding for blue eggs

    I figured it would not but I needed to hear it from someone else to confirm it. Thanks

    Feeding for blue eggs

    I'm going to try it and see what happens. I was hoping someone already did the experiment and I could save some time lol. I feed my aquarium fish food that is high in certain ingredients that give fruits and vegetables there color. It makes their colors really bright at breeding time but I...

    Feeding for blue eggs

    I was wondering if feeding my EE's and Ameraucana chickens blueberries will help produce bluer & greener eggs? The antioxidant in blueberries is responsible for their blue color and I was wondering if it would affect the color of the eggs. I know that the blue egg is caused at a genetic...

    Ideas for preventing chickens from flying out

    Sorry for the late response, I didn't see your post. Our chicken house is under a tree. So it gets both sun and shade. We have two main predators hawks and cats. The tree has provided camouflage from the hawks but we had install a lot of chicken wire around the run and on top to keep the cats...

    EE rooster breeding

    Thanks. I figured it would be a wild guess as to what the eggs will look like. I called the hatchery and told them that all the research that I can find, says that EE'S are cross breeds (hybrids) and they stuck by their claim that their EE's breed true. However they attached one caveat...

    EE rooster breeding

    I apparently asked a similar question already, so I apologize for the duplicate here. The response that I got from the member believes they are using the term "breed true" loosely. They believe that the EE'S that I have will breed true with each other. However I can't find anyone who has bred...
