    Blue Marans- pullet or roo?

    I also vote pullet. Usually Marans cockerels make themselves known early with their big red combs and this one is still small and pale.

    Which BCM Rooster to Keep

    I’m trying to decide which Black Copper Marans rooster to keep based on looks/SOP. Rooster #2 is more dominant and therefore is larger and flashier right now so it’s throwing me off (plus I’m new at this). He is also the dumbest of the two, so I only want to keep him over rooster #1 if he’s...

    Questions about gosling feed

    I recently received 5 Buff goslings and I have done a lot of research on raising goslings, but I’m getting confused by conflicting information. To start off with, I ordered four goslings, they got lost in the mail for 5 days, and miraculously 3 survived. I let the hatchery know what happened...

    Cockerel spinning in circles while free-ranging

    I just went out and threw down some scratch and he was eating it normally. He’s been in the run all day and I haven’t seen him spin at all.

    Cockerel spinning in circles while free-ranging

    I posted a picture of each of his eyes and they look normal to me. Is there a way to test if he’s blind in one?

    Cockerel spinning in circles while free-ranging

    I have another cockerel his age and a 3 year old rooster. They’re all acting normal. I have someone coming by tomorrow to pick up the extra cockerel and I was going to let them choose between the two…but I saw him do this again tonight so I thought I’d better check and see if something was...

    Cockerel spinning in circles while free-ranging

    I have a 10.5 week old cockerel that I hatched from an egg and every time I let the chickens out to free range, he will randomly spin in circles. I never see him do this in the coop or run and I don’t see anything off with his eyes. Is he just a weirdo or is there something wrong with him?

    Shrunken comb, second molt and weird poop?

    Do you have a rooster? Sometimes roosters will accidentally pull out some head feathers when they are mounting a hen.

    Fertilization with two roosters

    So I currently have a splash ameraucana rooster and 13 hens. He is a very good rooster and all of my eggs end up fertilized. One thing I have noticed is he seems to prefer the hens that he was raised with and those that were raised under his “rule”. I have a few hens that are older than him...

    Older pullet died but autopsy revealed nothing

    Hi there. I had a Silkie/Ameraucana mix that I hatched this spring from my flock and she just recently started going downhill. I first noticed yesterday evening, she seemed a little lethargic while out free-ranging with the flock. I checked on her that night while she was on the roost and could...
