Update on jupiter! Im stumped lol!3 3 months old. Love its feathers though! No red/copper feathers :confused:

Oh my gosh really?? Lol I figured because of the pointed hackle feathers and small growing spurs (even though females can have them, I’ve seen them mostly in roos) it might be a roo. The comb and wattles are a bit small I’ll admit. Its 8 weeks old

Updated pics of jupiter! 90% sure its rooster (thanks a lot sexed hatcheries) but I actually might keep him! He’s so pretty!

This is my adult girl Dia

Yes thats my dogs nose Lol This is my third easter egger chicken! I love this breed I decided i needed another one haha! Does anyone have any pics of what this chick’s plumage might grow up to be like?

Ok! I can try getting side photos later today. Thank you for the help! I’ll try the emery board

Thank you for the replies. She’s doing great right now (eating and drinking) getting along with other chicks and active. Hasn’t gotten worse today but I suspect it will eventually. I’ll keep you updated

not too familiar with “scissor beak” but im worried my 2 week old polish might have it. Been getting a lot of chicks lately from different people mainly because all the feed store chicks are terrible, but unfortunately we haven’t had even much luck with breeders either.. Its been “shifting its...

Thank you everyone for the helpful comments!!

this polish chick i thought was a silver laced. But the more photos i find it looks like its going to have a white crest and black body. It doesn’t matter too much, just curious. It’s about a week old and supposed to be female.

Looking for some hatcheries that i can order: 1 cayuga duck 1 blue swedish duck 3 Silver Hamburgs 2 polish (buff and a silver laced) and 1 copper maran Meyer hatchery didn't work anyone know where i can get these breeds for this spring? thanks!
