    Is this a rooster?

    Hello! I got five Brahma chicks from Tractor Supply and was told they were all sexed and they were all hens. I got them when they were maybe 5 to 6 days old and they’re about five weeks old now. But I am really thinking the one with the comb and waddle that is more red is a rooster. He has the...

    When to transition chicks to coop with other hens

    Hello! We have 8 death layer chicks who are almost 5 weeks old, they are fully feathered, & just seem like they’re getting much too big for the brooder we have. I do feel that death layers mature more quickly than other chickens I’ve had. It is summertime & hot where I live, so heat is not an...

    Cross breed question!

    Has anyone ever cross bred a laughing chicken (ayam ketawa) & a death layer chicken? We lost some chickens recently so we want to incubate more. & we’ve incubated plenty in the past but not cross breeds, so I was just curious if anyone has cross bred these breeds before? Thank you!

    Can an egg bound chicken poop?

    I believed that my laying silkie was egg bound. One day I went out & she was laying in the spot she lays her eggs & didn’t really seem to want to move & I thought maybe she was just in the process of laying. So I let her be. The following day, I go out & she is in the same spot & he vent seems...

    Silkie chick isn’t moving around

    I have been hatching some silkies. I had one egg that was working on hatching and wasn’t making progress so I had ended up helping it hatch. I’ve hatched a lot of eggs & I only interfere with the hatching process if I feel like it is necessary and they will not make it if I don’t & they haven’t...

    Chicken with a possible broken leg

    Today I saw one of my chickens hiding in the coop, they’re only a couple months old so still try to run when we try to get them from the coop. So, amongst trying to get her out she tried to get away & was limping so bad that she would fall into the splits. Other chickens were pecking at her &...

    Frizzle of frazzle?

    I have never heard of a frizzle or frazzle before. But we incubated some silkie eggs that we ordered online. The seller said there were a couple frazzle eggs. We thought we had 6 silkies but now that they’re 2 weeks old, one of their feathers are definitely curling out & looking different than...

    Hatching with detached air sacs

    We had eggs shipped & have been incubating them. I noticed the air sacs looked oddly shaped, but didn’t think too much into it as at the time the chickens were still developing. Well fast forward, we are on day 20 & I had checked them one last time prior to day 18 & noticed the air sacs still...
