    How do I create a pure white Turken?

    I have searched all over the internet and in stores and can’t seem to find anybody that is selling pure white turkens. (McMurray used to but isn’t selling them this year) So my question is, how do I achieve this myself? I already own red/buff Turken hens and was hoping I could breed them with my...

    Do we have a sick leghorn

    I visit my hens every day since I got them two weeks ago. At first everything was great but now I have an issue with not collecting any white eggs for the last 4 days. The Amber star has been Queen royalty while the white leghorn - who's also a bully - demonstrated her amazing laying prowess and...

    Do we have a bully problem? Leghorns stopped laying

    I'm investigating two possibilities, this is the first; recently (2024/04/30) I got 3 hens: two white leghorns and one Amber star. They are all within 3weeks age and the amber star started laying small but, cute eggs. Three days at her new home, the bigger legorn started laying too on the 3rd...

    Team Silkie Hatched 4 Eggs! Pics Below!

    Our 2 silkies hatched 4 little RIR (rooster) x white leghorn chicks. I’m really excited to see what these babies will look like. The ACTUAL mamas refused to sit on their eggs. I heard something about hens genetics being messed with so they won’t sit on their eggs. Is that true? Post pictures of...

    White Leghorn Struggling To Lay, Only Laying Soft Shelled Eggs

    Happy Monday chicken community, I hope you and your feathered friends are doing lovely! For the last nearly two weeks my white leghorn has been laying soft shelled eggs. She was a very very consistent layer, sometimes two large white eggs a day! The eggs are certainly not my concern, honestly I...

    Stinky Poop Butters

    I have a 3 almost 4 week old chick named Butters. I recently determined it is a white leghorn I think rather than the Buff Orpington I thought I was getting. LOL. It has been perching and flying its coop since basically week one. Super sweet but OMG it has the stinkiest poop. I do not think it...

    Can someone check over my genetics please?

    Okay, this is going to be a long one. I produced a gradient chicken pattern several years ago and have since lost all of the chickens associated with the line. I am wanting to replicate it. The start was an EE. Rosaline. This was in crisp 2015. I do not know what breeds this EE was made out...

    My plan on chicken crossbreeding

    My target traits for the lineage that I am developing are: black meat, black feathers, not a flyer, 2kg above average weight, docile, enhance broodiness, and resistant to the diseases and weather here in the Philippines. My idea would be breeding my WL x N x AC x CS cockerel to my BA pullet and...

    So our White Leghorn in this pic isn’t the actual momma.. she hatched 11 of her Babies under our trailer (roadside) and has been an amazing mother, teaching them all they need to know! 4 weeks later, this morning she left them and flew over 3 fences to come back and lay more! Side note: her...

    Red Pyle

    Want to cross a white leghorn and Black copper Marans to create Pyle. Do I need to use a white leghorn Rooster and a Black Copper Marans Hen? Or should I use Black copper Marans Rooster and a white leghorn Hen? Can I do it either way? Thanks so much!!

    New Member Introduction

    Greetings! I got my first TS gateway chicks in March 2021. I purchased six, thinking a couple of the little leggers wouldn't make it. Well they did, and I shared three of the ladies with a friend, who's now also a proud new chicken mama. Then we got 3 golden comets, one of which was a cross...

    Egg with no shell at all?

    Hey all! With the colder weather approaching, a couple of my girls are going through some pretty gnarly molting. One of my Easter eggers hasn’t been laying for the last couple weeks(I know this because she is the only one out of 16 chickens who lays very light brown eggs) due to her molt. Two...

    Small black dots

    I have 6 white leg horns. They are all laying. Today when I went to check on them I noticed one has these small black dots on its comb. There is no sign of bugs or anything and she is eating and drinking fine. I will get pictures

    Who else has ever had a broody White Leghorn? 🤣

    Hello everyone!!! I’m just popping in to see how many have been in the same boat as me… I’ve heard it’s relatively rare to have a truly broody White Leghorn. But I raise you… Ruth Bader Hensberg!! She’s been brooding for almost 2 weeks now. I didn’t believe she’d last, so i’m just now putting...
