I think I'll try the ice bath 🤞. At this point I'll try about anything. Thank you for the tips!

She's been isolated for almost 2 weeks and she stays in overnight. She's unable to nest in there, only roost but she chooses to loaf on the ground. I try to let her out twice a day with supervision but she immediately resumes to bullying and aggressively mounting.

I currently have an almost 2 year old hen (backyard mix) that has gone broody and acting aggressively like a rooster towards the my other hens (Easter Eggers), under a year old. She's even trying to attack my four 2 month old babies (2 frizzled bantam cochin cockerels,1 red sex link pullet and 1...

Oh I'm sorry, I forgot I did take some recent pics. Here are some from last week when they were 3 weeks old. The first 2 pics are one and the other 2 are the other one. Any ideas on their breeds? They are now about 4 weeks old.

No, I don't have any updated pics because we've had so much rain lately, it's so muddy.

Thank you so much for your time!

Ok, knowing the light ones are most likely females is good news but oh it makes me sad to think both frizzles are cockerels, I was afraid to admit that's exactly what I was thinking so far. I was really hoping at least one of them would be a female. Do you have any idea how well they could do if...

I have four 3 1/2 week old chicks that I purchased from my local Atwoods. The bins weren't marked with breeds. I've been told different breeds when I've asked. The two black chicks are frizzled bantam cochins I'm almost positive on that those but the other two chicks I'm not sure at all. I'll...

Thank you so much for that tip because it did cross my mind to breed them if they turn out to be a male and female and they are both frizzles. I would have never known not too, so I really appreciate you for informing me!

Yeah, that one is smaller than the other one and being dark it's hard to get good pics. It has tiny little feathers that look like they will flair out too.

Thank you! I'm hoping at least one is a female.

The pics are of one of them, I'll include some pics of the other one whose a little smaller.

I got 2 tiny chicks and was told were bantam cochins. They are from my local Atwood feed store from unmarked bins that only said pullets (you know how that goes lol). Now they are 2 weeks old and one of them has crazy flaired out wings and tiny tail feathers. My daughter has been doing research...

8 eggs 🥚 out of 9 layers 🐔 but the day isn't over yet lol.

I figured it was too early. I know some breeds are able to be sexed early on. Have any idea what breed these 2 are?
