    New Barnvelder and Swedish flowers owner

    I had a single Aurucana growing up that my mum rescued from a school hatching, she laid green eggs and was best friends with our guineapig. Now I am a grown up (allegedly), I have learned that neither animal should have been a loner! Now I live in the wild mountains of NC and not in the south of...

    Normal Barnvelder behavior? crazy chickens

    Hi, this is my first real flock (we have some older production layers here, but they aren’t mine) and I decided to try out several different breeds. The Chickens are about 8 weeks, fully feathered, and about to go outside. I’ve been trying to handle them so they aren’t too wild once they are...

    Barnvelder... doubtful and Deleware roo or hen?

    The "Barnie" is about 4 months old and I'm more sure it's female, but it sure doesn't look like a real Barnvelder. What is Phoenix? Rescued a Deleware from a feed store today... way overcrowded and just sad. Anyway, I asked him was he sure it's a hen and he said yes. In daylight (which the poor...

    4 bantam Double laced silver Barnvelder chicks, 1 week old. Central OK

    These babies are a week old today & doing awesome! I am only selling because I misread the posting when I purchased the eggs and didn't realize they are bantam, and as all of my other birds will be standard, I would rather they be as well. They were given probiotics after hatching & are on 100%...

    Avian Pox and a Respiratory illness?

    I have a 6 month old Barnvelder hen who is showing symptoms of what I believe are Avian Pox (the spots on her comb & wattle) and a respiratory illness (the foamy eye). I haven't seen either of these symptoms in my birds before, and have made these assumptions based on research I've done here at...

    Hubby and I started our very own flock in the spring of this year (2017). I had absolutely no experience with fowl, except faint childhood memories of my daddy having fightin chickens, and my uncle's farm where they roamed free & pooped everywhere. Bleah!! He talked me into it, and I agreed...

    Barnvelder swallowed a screw

    I had a warning 10 minutes earlier, where my silver Dorking noticed I was getting pretty frantic trying get hold of a flat head, inch long screw I dropped near the coop. Couldn't believe how interested she was in getting hold of it, knowing any new item of food put into the run is usually shown...
