Yippee thanks! Can anyone please tell me what it is you're noticing most to decide?

Really?!!:) Oh wow! I had feared lately that I had 3 cockerels & 1 hen... The last pic of held bird is the only 1 of that 4th bird. I think it's a hen as well. Should I get more pics? I have more in the cage but can't upload them from my phone for some reason. Any more feed back or opinions...

Needing to thin out my chick experiment flock. I hatched these from my BO crossed w/ my Blue Copper Marans Roo. Tried relentlessly to figure out what sex they are, now turning for help. I hope the pics are good enough:/ Can take more tomorrow if need be, but they're flighty little buggers...

I'm in! Love BYC & especially love knowing folks nearby. Here in South Bend. :)

Ok. Thanks All. He's available for sale or trade.lol

Hi, welcome! Guess you've been here awhile now. I'm in NW INDIANA TOO. South Bend. Help when where I can.

Me neither, cute round face, submissive, thin legs, no long tail feathers, doesn't hold head high, except to look about. What is anyone seeing besides the comb?

Yes, blue copper Marans x wheaten EE

I'm crying here.... Sure doesn't act like a Roo Does anyone know If, whe a BLCM Roo is crossed w/a wheaten EE, do the males tend to be black/copper color & the females Blue ? Seems to be what I'm getting if this one is a Roo .

Hope you can tell me this is a Poulet ..Hope! I had an OE that looked similar to this one that was a Roo; But This one has less tail at the same age, smaller legs, much calmer, & has been hanging out & roosting with an older bantam Roo . Any comments appreciated. Thanks.

Not sure if this post will work... My Roo has a lump on his leg. & my hen has a bulbous swelling below her butt. What are these problems? & what can I do?

Bubble butt on BCM, Lump on BLCM's leg

Well 2.5 ms later he did grow to be a nasty Roo Tried lots of patient things, he'd settle down, but the next surprise would end up being worse than the one before. When he attacked me in the midst of a calm encounter I culled him for supper. I do believe you're right, nasty chicks become nasty...
