Welcome!!! I have a lot of the breeds listed above and another great egg layer are my Isa Browns! Plus they are so friendly!!!

Awesome news!!!!

Sometimes it's so hard to tell until they get order. Usually if the crow like a rooster they are a rooster. Lol my one Lavender rooster has a 2 syllable crow and the other has a 4 syllable crow. Chickens can be so crazy!

Unless it's very young it looks like a female to me. This is my Lavender hen: and this is my rooster

I've gotten chicks at several places TSC, Family Farm & home and went to a hatchery and ended up with a lot of roosters that were supposed to be pullets. My best experience was with ordering from Townline Poultry (if I remember right they are out of Zeeland). I got 32 Isa Browns less than 24...

Oh good!!! My had a bantam rooster that would attack you if you turned your back on him! He tasted good! Lol

You do realize that the reason the Silkie is smaller is because it's a bantam right? It's adorable! You have me wanting one! Lol

They don't really like the snow. I have to shovel out the run for them the go outside. As you can see they've taken a bunch of the straw out of the coop! Lol

Yes 2 are Barred Rock, no Dominiques. The Light Brahma baby u. The 1 pic with the Lavenders I call Snowball. This is her! She's so sweet!!!

I just took this pic for you. All 3 Lavenders are in it!

I have 3 and I think that was a male. I ended up with 2 roosters and 1 hen. They all looked the same at that age though if I remember right. Here's another pic when they were real young. The other one in the pic is a Light Brahma

This is what my Lavenders looked like.. The other one is a Buff Orpington

I agree with all the above posts. While my hen was healing I also scrambled up eggs for her everyday for the protein and mixed some liquid vitamins in them. She loved them!

Mrs. Potts looks like a Lavender but beauty I'm not so sure off. All my Lavenders were solid gray. Beauty looks like she has some yellow? Your silky is gorgeous!!!!

I had an injured bird like this once and I just kept it clean and used the neosporin and kept her separated from the flock until it was completely healed and the feathers grown back and she recovered completely! Good luck with her! Love my girls too! :)
