pullets

What chicken should I get? More importantly what chicken fits me? I want a chicken around 4-5 pounds so they are around the same size of my Easter Eggers so it’s not much bullying or fighting what so ever. I want a nice breed that’s some what around 4-5 pounds any ideas? What would get along...

My 4 month old chickens are being let out of the run under supervision. I opened the gate, picked a spot in the yard to sit, and watched! So much fun to watch them all explore and play! One of my lady spitzhaubens had a blast- I had a water bottle, and she came over and took the cap right out...

I have three 23 week old pullets and three 18 month old chickens, all heritage breeds. The pullets have not started to lay yet and because of their breeds may not for a while yet. The pullets began living in the same coop/run with the older girls six weeks ago and I have been feeding all six...

Abby (circled) and Katie Ruby Betty Daisy (the reason her back is circled is because I was worried that the slant of those feathers might mean she’s a roo) I had asked a couple months ago tips on combining chicks with adults. Well, today is the day. We will be buying live crickets...

Hey all! Got a small group of baby pullets, both orpingtons and isa browns. The black orps are easy to ID, but the lighter colored ones I'm lost on! I've looked up pictures of both, but that didn't help much. :P Anyone have any tips on telling orps from browns? I'd appreciate it, because I...

Hey everybody, The storm has taken two of my FBCM pullets already, which leaves me with just one at 12 weeks old. So if anybody happens to have any, I’d love to pick up 2 or 3 more after the storm passes. I’m located in west palm beach Florida.

I have 4 leghorns and 2 orpingtons at about 5 weeks old. It is time to move them outside. If you didn't know, I live in South Florida. A very hot place that can reach up to 100F in the summer months but it is starting to cool as we turn into fall. Right now it goes up to 90F. I know this is...

I have a couple of questions abo uh t my chicks. I was given 2 dozen Amercauna eggs, (light green/blue) now i have 14 chicks, that are 3 months old and I'm wondering how to sex them. Possibly EE's, but not sure. I have some eggs, but they are in the incubator and didn't think to take pictures...

I bought 3 Polish pullets. We lost one, sadly. The other two are closing in on two months old, and I'm suspecting that one is a cockerel. I'm getting worried. We got all these new birds, supposedly pullets, and we've already confirmed 3 roosters (and possibly more). What can I do? I've had 3...

Hello! I have a quick question... I've been integrating 3 new pullets (now 16-17 weeks old) to my existing flock of 3 chickens. I've been following the recommended steps and today has been the first day I put them all together in the same enclosed run after free ranging. Things are going very...

Hi friends! I'm hoping for some help in sexing my 2 Wyandotte's (SLW). They'll be 5 weeks old tomorrow. One of them was ordered from Cackle Hatchery as a pullet (in a group of 3 - one of 3 different breeds) and one of them was an extra (free) chick included in the order. Just as a side note, in...

There are six chicks altogether . 4 are polish, one is a cuckoo and one (I'm pretty sure this ones a rooster) is a lavender. They are now 4 weeks old. I'm convinced 2 are roosters but unsure with the rest. Don't have much experience with this. I do know it's still difficult to tell but if anyone...

Looking for quality Croad Langshans in northern CA and Nevada. We fell in love with Croad Langshans, and we are replacing much of our flock with Langshans. We have crummy luck when it comes to the pullet/cockerel ratio. We got four chicks, lost one, and the surviving three were all boys. We...
