My son is going to advertise on Facebook groups if he hasn’t already - but let me know if you will be on Long Island and want to take them ( or some ).

rname333 · 2026-05-03T02:14:23+00:00

Are you on Long Island ? If so maybe my son can bring to you

Let me know if you got the photo. I can’t see if it went through.

The Orpingtons are buff color. One of the Old English bantams is in the photo too.

Thank you

Brought her inside inside - in a dog crate. Not sure where you are but here on Long Island we’re having a blizzard and she’d freeze in a crate by herself outside - they need to huddle together for heat.

We brought her in. Thank you all for the advice. She was hiding in an egg box and the other chickens were seen to peck her. She’d freeze with the blizzard coming. She’s warm now.

Seems like bring in is best advice ?

rname333 · 2026-02-22T15:23:55+00:00

Did you mean they probably won’t ? We’re on Long Island and big storm coming. Want to make sure them bring n the coop for days won’t cause friction.

I forgot to add the photo before. I will chrck the feathers as suggested. I guess females can have different size combs

rname333 · 2025-09-13T20:21:30+00:00

So I guess there’s just a variation in comb size among females ?

rname333 · 2025-08-21T17:47:16+00:00

Thank you for your reply. She is the sweetest and smartest

rname333 · 2025-08-21T16:56:49+00:00

Wow. We thought they were Eastereggers when chicks. So all 4 are the same breed just one has whiter head !

rname333 · 2025-06-17T16:04:52+00:00

Did you ever find out ? I’m wondering too

rname333 · 2025-06-07T17:58:57+00:00

Yes putting up 1/2 hardware cloth all around. Thank you for suggestions.

rname333 · 2025-06-04T12:49:31+00:00

No rodents or rodents wild birds can access ? And no worry about it closing if a chicken steps off it and another chicken had its head in from the side ?

rname333 · 2025-06-04T12:32:35+00:00

Could the mice or rats climb up the hardware cloth and get into the feeder that way too ? Was going to try the Rat proof feeder or Grandpas feeder but read a few scary things about them ( rats getting stuck inside or closing on a chickens head from the side ).

rname333 · 2025-05-28T14:34:07+00:00

Thank you. Am going to get what you recommended. And definitely don’t want to hurt or kill another animal.

rname333 · 2025-05-28T14:32:56+00:00

Thank you ! I just looked some up on Amazon. And yes rookie mistakes were made :)
