    Introducing Four Seven-Week Old Chicks to Two Adult Hens

    I found some similar posts, but nothing just like this - I apologize if it's a repeat. I have been raising chickens for over a decade and feel pretty good about this plan, but I wanted to get some feedback. We are down to two adult hens in our flock from an original five, largely due to old...

    7 week old Jersey Giants gender?

    These babies are seven weeks old today! I've never had JGs before. Very small, flesh/black colored combs and no wattle growth but these upright tail feathers have me suspicious. Are these pullets or roos? Thanks for your help!
