@debid they are all about 6-8 weeks. I suspect that the cochin mix is about8 weeks. The other 2 barred are actually supposed to be English Orpington cuckoo. But I've had a few people tell me they think they are maran, barred rock, or even Dominique. But I got them from a breeder that has mostly...

About 8 weeks old.

He/she is about 8 weeks old now.

Oh my goodness I am so thankful I found this thread!!! I need help with a few. Blue Cochin mix (6 ish weeks) 2 barred rock or cuckoo maran that are about 6 weeks as well. They started out with all the female chick traits, perfect round dot on head, black splash down legs, quick to feather...

Thank you so much for al the educational replies!!!

Yes. They have single comb. And this is very helpful. Thank you so much.

Shoot, I was so hoping for a pullet but had a feeling cockerel. :( the breeder said I could bring back the males I end up with so I am just trying to be sure who is male before I go to his farm to return. also, the breeder said it was a lavender Orpington/blue Cochin mix. Since the blue and...

I got these beauties from a breeder that has mostly specialty breeds. A lot of English Orpingtons. He told me these were cuckoo. Pardon my ignorance but I am not familiar with this breed and didn't realize they could have a barred plumage? Also these birds have developed exactly the same, they...

Here is and update on this Cochin. So far the feathering looks female. but the comb and wattles don't look promising

Here is a close up.

She seems to be happy and healthy. She's eating and active but her comb concerns me. Anyone know what this might be?

Hello. This is a 3 week old chocolate Orpington and he/she is feathering so incredibly slow I'm worried. I know that males typically develop feathers slower but this chick seems way behind even for a male. Also there is no real excessive comb for waddle development so I'm wondering if it is a...

Hello, I have 13 older chickens that are in their own coop. I recently took in 22 new chickens. I have 1- 3.5 month old, 5 -7 week olds, and 16-2 week olds. The 3.5 month old I suspect is a cockerel and out of the 5- 7 week olds I suspect 3 might be cockerel (it is so hard to tell). The are in...

I was given this beautiful chick she is probably 3 weeks or so? She is a blue lavender Cochin. Apparently she is the mix of blue Cochin hen and lavender Orpington rooster. At least that's what I was told. I am very excited to see what she looks like matured and I am sure hoping she is indeed...

I have a 1-2 week old chocolate orp. She was very weak and small when I got her/him and was actually worried about survival. We got passed any worry because now he/she is thriving and (even as the runt of the flock) she is very fiesty. :) the wings have been slower to develop than my other...

Hi! I have these 5 little beauties that seem to be different ages, ranging from 6-9 weeks? Any guesses what gender they might be?? The 1st pic is all 5 the second 2 pics are close ups of the 1st picture. Thanks in advance for any replies! :)

How easy is it to transfer mareks disease from property to property. I want to go visit my sister but her flock has been affected by mareks disease. She only has 3 hens left out of her flock. If I go visit her and spend time on her property how likely is it that I can then transfer Mareks back...

Here is one more picture so you can see her/his whole body, stance, feathers, etc
