    Is this a Rhode Island Red?

    Long story short, we ended up having to put our Western Rustics (meat bird, straight run) in with our Rhode Island Reds (sexed, supposedly.) At the time, we weren't* able to band them and for their safety, we couldn't wait. We're trying to separate them out again because there's definitely some...

    Anyone who knows more than I do??

    I got 6 fertile eggs from chick and egg, out of those 5 ended up hatching and 2 are obvious roosters. Before hatching them, I thought that chick and egg's rooster return service would be for anyone and that it's a guaranteed thing for me to rely on. However I've realised that they're in Auckland...

    What is this?

    My chicken has a swollen hard spot on her breast and under wing, and when I checked it, there was a big black splotch. She is tripping because of it when she walks. What is it? My theory is frostbite, but I'm not sure. Thanks.

    Hens or roosters

    I have 5 Rhode Island reds of 12 weeks old. I am not a chicken expert but i would like to know if I can see gender differences yet. They do not have combs or wattles yet. They all seem the same to me and don’t act very dominant or different from each other. I would appreciate if someone could...

    Who laid this egg?? 😅

    Hey there! Currently we only have two hens, one RIR from McMurray that we raised ourselves and is almostttt 15 weeks I believe (shipped out week of June 3rd and I believe we got them that Thursday), and one that we were told was a 1.5 year old maran (I didn’t ask which kind and we’re newbies to...

    Ruby or Reuben? Rhode Island Red, 5.5 weeks old, can't tell if it's a pullet....

    This chick was hatched by one of my hens 5 1/2 weeks ago. I feel like the comb on Ruby/Reuben is larger and pinker than my older RIR pullet was at 5 1/2 weeks. But there are no wattles. Its posture is usually very low to the ground, very skittish and shy. I had to make an alarm call to get the...

    Helping with Sour Crop/Regurgitation

    Hi, I've never posted on a forum before, but I think we may have recently saved our at least extended our Rhode Island Red's (Lois) life with this. She has occasionally had mild sour crop issues. She is about three years old, and has had a few bouts maybe the last two years. Not terrible, just...

    Rhode Island Reds…Gray and Black Chicks?

    We were gifted three hens and rooster which I assumed were all Rhode Island Reds, but the giver calls them “farm chickens.” Anyway, broody hen sits on eggs, out pop two black chicks with yellow bums and a gorgeous gray chick. Any idea what they’ll look like as adults? Pics of chicks and parents...

There is a stronger base of Rhode Island Reds but probably about 6 other breeds because my wife liked beautiful chickens and sent me all over KY buying different ones for looks and we ended up...

    Gender Feedback (RIR/Mystery)

    I have a ~9 week old RIR who’s slightly bigger than her sisters, I got her from Wilco. The blonde is 9-10 weeks old and is an olive Egger, though I’m not sure what she’s mixed with. Thanks!

    Rhode Island hen ,wing

    Coming into spring my Rhode Island hen 1 year old, has very little right wing feathers. I thought this was molting but it’s been happening for like 3.5 months. Why could this be? (Note I do not have roosters just little bantam hens)
