    Anyone in Thailand?

    Hi! I'm Thai and I just wondering if there is any Thai BYC member out there? And also, I'm looking for a Leghorn pullet. Anybody know where I can get one?

    Type of hens? Sex-Links, RIRs? Other?

    Hi Everyone, New to backyard chickens. This website has been a gold mine of information. Thanks to all for taking the time to offer your thoughts. I recently picked up these pullets from the farm down the road. I am having a hard time identifying them, the farmer wasn't even certain. Amy...

    Squishy egg within egg

    I found this while looking for my evening eggs about 15 min ago. Each layer revealed a new egg-thing. I hang out with my flock multiple times a day and no egg is left in there over an hour. The one who laid this is one of the leghorn cross "Ideal" hens. She is almost 3 years old. She eats Layena...

    About 3 week old leghorn sexing

    These little “girls” are about 3 weeks old. They’re supposed to be leghorns. They are getting pretty long tail feathers. Is that a sign they might be roosters? I know I’ll probably have to wait longer, but I JUST CANT! 😂🤣😂 Thanks!

    Leghorns pullet or roo

    I do this every time I get new chicks! Stress for months until I know the sex! I think it’s because my first set of “pullets” I got at rural king were actually 50/50 hens and Roos! Leghorns seem a more tricky to sex by features. Any ideas if these are pullets or Roos?

    Why has my Leghorn stopped laying?

    My 1yr old Leghorn started laying eggs last August-ish. Then once daylight started getting shorter in December, she & my other girls stopped laying. Well, here it is April and everyone has returned to normal laying schedule except her! She is my smallest hen, could that have anything to do with...

    Novogen

    Do you have a novogen? I was curious if you could post pictures. I just got one and it’s between 8-10 weeks old. It looks like a pullet but it has pointy tail feathers. I’m curious what your pullets and Roos look like. If you have any thoughts on mine please help lol.

The yellow one was supposed to be a cream leg bar, however, I think it's more like a leghorn. any thoughts? the brownish one I believe is a barnevelder. This is not their normal set up, I was taking two at a time out on this towel with some food and...

    choosing/optimizing mixed flock for egg laying

    We have had 7 BR hens (and one roo) we bought as chicks in spring 2018 and by end of winter-spring 2019 they sucked at egg laying - going broody repeatedly with 2 week interval, pecking feathers (despite protein supplement), and just being big frame fat chickens upon butchering. Their...

    Chicken who lays very infrequently

    I have a white leghorn chicken in my flock of 5 (barred rock, Rhode island red, Easter Egger, Americana). They were all born on March 2 & 3 of last year so are not quite a year old. My white leghorn was the first to lay at about 14 or 15 weeks. She laid an egg a day and pretty much never took a...
