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...

I am trying to build a new coop for my chooks. I have 1 year to do it, as the hubby agreed that I can get more next year! The downside is, I have a small coop, since I had an accident where a pack of dogs ripped off my coop door and ate all my chickens. Hubby agreed that if I can build a...

Was given this rooster from a friend, given age is about 2 -3 years old, and she ordered from a hatchery (she can't remember which one). Also she doesn't remember what all she bought with that hatchery order so I have no idea how to guide you. Other than he looks like a brown red ameraucana but...

Okay, so. There is a lot of problems here and I have no clue where to post, so here it is. A family friend showed up at 8am this morning and gifted my dad with a 'fun' father's day gift. We now have 2 goats, 4 adult chickens (3 hens and a roo), and 45+ quail chicks, chicks, and a turkey poult...

Hey everyone, I think my older sex-link is pulling feathers from herself? I am just really unsure what is going on. I don't know her age, but she is an older girl and she is a rescue battery hen. She seems to be fine, but I know something has got to be bothering her for her feathers to look...

I got this baby chick in an assorted heavy breeds bin at Atwoods. If someone could please help me identify this little chickie that would be awesome! Also ignore the messy backdrop, horses knocked over a bucket and spilled all the trash we just picked up out of it.

I moved back home from college (due to school shutdowns) to find that my little dwarf hamster Skittles now only has 3 legs! She had gotten herself caught up in a corner of the cage bars (she likes to crawl up the sides of the wire cages) and had gotten stuck. To make a long story short, we...

I recently got some bantam hens from my uncle who had to sell his flock. I got these hens: silver sebright, splash silkie, and an easter egger. I was wanting to know the possible laying rates of these girls, but in roughly eggs per day, not eggs per year.
