This is Rerun. She is 24 weeks old. I got her as a chick and was told she was a Jersey Giant. I don't think she's a Jersey Giant. I've been told she's a Black Sexlink or a Black Copper Maran. Any other ideas on what she might be? She's not laying yet, so I don't know what color her eggs...
Hello BYC Members,
My name is Ivette, and I am in Central FL.

Well, I'm looking forward to...
I am new to keeping chickens. Back in June, I got 9 pullets, or so I thought. It is becoming more and more apparent that at 24 weeks old, 4 or 5 of these hens are actually roosters. They crow and are becoming quite aggressive with each other. I'm hoping to benefit from the expertise of those...
