    Sunnyside Rainbow Eggers Thread! *chick pics*

    Thank you so much for this. I've been scouring the internet for a hatchery that sells small orders of ducklings that is not crazy expensive, the cheapest I could find until now was at Metzer Farms, where I could get 6 ducklings for about $80 dollars, which in my book is not worth it for day old...

    Need Reassurance & Guidance

    She looks full grown. I've heard people say that sometimes you can roughly estimate how old they are by the length of their nails, but it's not very reliable. Keep in mind that every chicken's personality is different. I raised two Swedish flowers in the same way with the same amount of...

    What do you do with excess roosters?

    I have had one large cross-breed rooster with 2 swedish flower hens, a 3 lb mystery hen, and a bantam wyandotte. They swedish flowers have been laying for about 3 weeks and the bantam for 1, and he has been mating the 3 bigger ones for about 2 months. He won't mate my bantam wyandotte at all. He...

    Ayam Cemani or Plymouth Rock?

    I would guess that that egg is from your Plymouth rock. Ayam Cemanis usually lay light pinkish eggs, but it could still be from her. You might have to stalk them around to tell.

    Official BYC Poll: Where Did You Get Your Coop & Run From?

    Some of the framing and some of the netting is new, but most of the plywood and all of the perches and nesting boxes and the frame of the run is leftover and repurposed materials from building our shed and moving.

    What breed is my 8 month bantam?

    She might be a red pyle, but she doesn't have the best coloring, so maybe not...🤷‍♀️ Edit: second thougt, she probably is.

    When will she give birth

    Animal abuse is illegal in every state, but OP has already told us multiple times that reporting them isn't an option right now.

    New hen. What kind?

    Just a guess, but she kinda looks like a whiting true blue.

    Chick hatched with no butt

    I think the chick is rumpless. I don't know a lot about rumplessness, but I do know that it can happen naturally and won't usually affect the chick other than looking a bit odd and decreased fertility sometimes. I wouldn't worry too much about it as long as she's acting normal.

    The actual Flock of Fluff

    Oops. Sorry, I haven't gotten around to updating yet, it's been kinda hectic. 😅 The chicks are now one month old! Time flies so fast. They got kicked outside last week and are let out into the run in the day and locked up in the old guinea pig cage at night with a heat lamp. It's not the best...

    The actual Flock of Fluff

    Hi everybody! I thought it would be nice to post a thread all about the little chooks I got in the mail this morning, because who doesn't love pictures of little balls of fluff and cuteness! I had only 4 and a half hours of sleep since they came at 3:30, so I am very tired. Veery tired. Worth it...

    I'm so sorry. I'm not the best at identifying predators but I hope you find who did it. :(

    Blotchy Chicken legs?

    My chickens have the same thing, it's never seemed to bother them. It is most likely normal discoloration. 😊
