I have been thinking a lot about eventually starting a bantam flock or just getting a few. While I can absolutely order which bantams I would prefer, I love to look at the mixed bantam bin at the farm store and always fall in love with a few.
I am pretty good at identifying or at least narrowing...
Hi I am not sure if this is the right place to post but I got 6 chicks from tractor supply and have waited some weeks. I am curious if any of you know what breed these chicks are?
Hey guys! I got these cuties yesterday, I can't seem to find any chicks online that resemble them so I was wondering if y'all had any ideas?! I've never had bantams other than silkies but I couldn't pass up that tub full of tiny babies 🤣
Hi there! I bought these Bantams from a mixed bin and was just looking to get help identifying breed and gender. They're about 5 weeks old now. Thanks!
I bought chicks from a local TSC, and they had Easter Eggers and Bantams in the same bin. I asked for Easter Eggers, but they accidentally gave me a bantam. Does anyone know what type of chicken this is? It has heavily feathered feet, and it did Have the chipmunk pattern. These are current...
Hi everyone!
It took me a week to get back online after my into and 1 failed attempt at posting during a lightning storm. Is there a draft feature at all? Oh well, lemme start over.
So, I live in TN and it only takes Cackle Hatchery a day to ship to me and the Tractor Supply chicks here always...
Hey guys, I just got some new chicks. All they said was that they were bantams. They're tiny babies, even fir newly hatched chicks, and I'm curious what kind if chicken they are. Here's a photo. Thanks for the help.
Hello lovely chicken community!!!
Can anyone help me identify these two birds? Not sure what breed/gender they are. All I know is that they are 5 week old Bantams. Roos or hens? 🙈
Thank you for all your help!
I've probably spent over 10hrs pouring over the internet trying to figure out what sort of bantams I received 3 weeks ago from Privett Hatchery. I've sorted out the Silkies and Polish Crested, but that's the extent of my "expertise". I need help, please!!!
I asked Privett when ordering what...
Hello all,
Yesterday I woke up to the worst news a chicken owner can receive - a fox made a meal from 4 out of my 6 chickens. I was devastated and am having trouble moving on. I just set up the coop and moved them outside about a week ago. I blame myself for letting them out too early in the...
I'm a chicken newbie and bought 5 straight run chicks off a local farmer. They are 8 weeks old.
Are they ready to go outside if I have a well protected coop and run?
Any idea on breeds and gender?
I'm assuming I have at least 1 Roo.. how many hens should I have per roo to keep everyone happy...
Hi, 2-4 weeks ago my 7-yo daughter and I bought these baby chicks at a tractor supply. My daughter is very good at taking care of them (she is a proficient helper!), and we’ve only lost one yesterday (a sibling of #19) to a hawk attack... My daughter keeps asking me to post chick pictures here...
We had a bad hatch this year under a new broody hen so after only ending up with two chicks I went to the local feed store to see what they had. I ended up coming home with 12 chicks: one naked neck, 3 crested chicks, and 8 random bantams. The feed store gets all their chicks from Ideal...
These gals are about 3.5 months old, from Atwoods, st run bantams. I am pretty confident they are all pullets. I would love to know what breeds they are though?? I am having a hard time finding a good bantam breed identification source online. Thanks in advance!
#1 has clean, yellow legs, no...
This little chick started out slow, much slower than the others, got him in a mixed batch of bantams at tractor supply, when his friends outgrew him I put him in with the younger bantams I had bought, then he quickly flourished and all of a sudden was huge! So maybe the other birds had been...
