Hello chicken keepers everywhere!
I have a Sapphire Gem pullet being an odd ball. She’s always been a tad independent, but since free ranging them while I’m home I have noticed that this pullet is Mrs. Independent.
She goes on her own little missions away from the crew. She kind of looks...
Update : he’s been trying to mount the other 17 week olds / 16 week old pullets all week. His crowing has improved like crazy in the past week. He’s also started to stop and stare at me. He ran up to my fiance when he spooked a pullet to check it out. (I know this is good somewhat) He’s been...
Tractor supply ^ and the others do not seem to have issues. I’ll check their feet tonight when they go to roost.
So Hoovers which I know they are notorious for issues for chicks sent to rural king and tractor supply.
Yes, but it takes her a couple tries. I will be sure to watch her feet. I can already tell that the mostly affected side gets dirtier(more gunk on it). That’s a very good suggestion!

Let me know what y’all think:)
Thank you so so much! I'll have to fatten him up for sure! He's been such a treat! I have enjoyed watching him grow. I took my younger EEs outside to hang out in their exercise/integration pen. Y'all should have seen him! He ran up to the pen with a blade of grass and was clucking at them. He...
I think that Kong is stunning! I hope Drogon(I'm a GOT fan) / he has another name as a joke that my fiance and his buddies call him...is at least half as beautiful as your handsome man.
I don’t think he’s one of their Easter eggers/ Americanas. I got two midnight majesty Marans pullets with him as well as two blue copper Marans / blue marans. He’s definetly not an mmm because mmm roosters are barred.
