    What Breed/Variation is This Chick From Hatchery Order?

    I just received an order from Mt. Healthy for 7 chicks. Like usual they included one extra. All chicks arrived safe and sound, and are very healthy and lively. I believe I have pinpointed the extra chick. In this picture there is an Australorp at the bottom, and a Speckled Sussex on the right...

    My flock is finally home

    We are finally moved up to the homestead and about 90% of my flock is now up here, too. I AM SO HAPPY. For the last year, my flock has been at another farm while we were transitioning out of town and up into the homestead. They were not cared for well. Over winter, I lost 2/3 of the flock and...

    What gender are these Cream Legbars?

    I just hatched these Cream Legbar chicks last weekend. Having trouble figuring out which are males vs females. I have read that males are a lighter color w a white spot, but I see some darker ones w a white spot. I am hoping you can tell me from this picture. Thanks for looking!

    Cream Legbar - Interesting Comb

    So this little girl is roughly 4 weeks old and is supposed to be a Cream Legbar (Hoover Hatchery chick from Cal Ranch) and obviously, supposed to be a girl. She was dark, had very clear chipmunk markings when she was small, etc. But, she's always had a bit of an odd comb. Has anyone seen a...

    Chicken with weirdly bad aim?

    This is Peanut Hamper. I call her Pee Pee. She's (mostly) a cream legbar, and is very intelligent, but a little bit odd. Pee Pee's most major oddity is that she has terrible aim. If I hold up a mealworm, she will miss at least five times before actually fitting it into her beak. The lack of...

    Cream Legbar

    Hello, We were given a cream legbar “rooster” and I’m starting to question whether he’s a rooster or a hen. He doesn’t crow, he’s always in the nesting boxes and he gets flogged like all the other hens. He hasn’t laid an egg that I’ve noticed. He hasn’t gotten much bigger since we got him. He...

    Blind hen needs new home!!!

    My blind hen is getting SEVERELY bullied to the point of broken skin and missing a LOT of feathers. We can’t give her a good enough home here, and if anyone is in or near our location who takes in injured or disabled hens, we need to rehome her FAST before she gets so badly hurt that there might...

    Silverrudds x Bielefelder and Legbar.. what color should chicks be?

    I have a blue Silverudds isbar rooster over cream legbar and bielefelder hens. I thought this would result in blue or black chicks that are sex linked, but some are coming out very similar in color to the hen color.. Is this a possibility?? I will add photos of the chicks in question

    Twelve chickens on the kitchen table....

    This is a 'brain dump' of all my thoughts and actions of our first incubating and hatching journey - from receiving the eggs to popping the chicks into the brooder. It's purpose is for me to be able to look back on it for future hatches, and for others to be encouraged and hopefully learn...
