I know this is an older post, but my buff orp x barred rock baby from last year is almost a full grown rooster now and he’s beautiful. Sweet as can be too …. He’s doing very good in learning how to protect the girls. I just hope he and his “dad” can continue to co exist. We shall see!

Australorp x Orpington is the mother. I hatched a australorp x Orpington and it looked just like the one you posted.

2 beautiful cockerels approx. 10 weeks old need new home. Hatched at home from my relentless broody hen, and I’m at rooster capacity! Breed(s) cockerel with black tail feathers is from Buff Orpington Roo x cream legbar hen second cockerel is Buff Orpington Roo x Welsummer hen. Pick up near Capac...

Isn’t he handsome?! “Sargent Pepper” My 4 month old BUFF ORP X AUSTRALORP cross is growing up to be such a beautiful sweet boy (he’s got those raging hormones too of course) 😊

Yup! I did I fixed it 😊

Oops yes you’re correct! Pip is the one with the comb box cl cross and the rose comb Buttercup is a bo x glw cross. Thanks for catching that 😊

Hatch experiment update :jumpy 9/ 9 eggs hatched early APRIL Old wives tale “sexing eggs” pre hatch: 8 females 1 male Actual hatch: 4cockerels / 5 Pullets Conclusion: old wives tales are just that.. tales! 🤣 All are from my buff Orpington rooster, but I had a couple surprise mixed; Easter egger...

I disagree. I think they’re pullets. I had a SLW cockerel and his comb / Wattles were growing fast and red by 6-7weeks.

I saw This video on YouTube awhile ago and he had the same thing going on and started treating her for respiratory infection, but then treated her for gapeworm. He’s a chicken pro, so you’ll most likely find it helpful. Good luck! Post an update when you can

Aww poor girl 😢 Could be gapeworm but fortunately if it is it’s treatable. I would separate her from the flock if she’s distressed and treat her for worms specifically gapeworm, and treat the others as well incase they’re all about to be gasping for air too...

I had two roosters same breed one was nice one was mean. After two years of playing the rooster dance and several flogs later, we got a kill cone and decided to end the madness. It was not the easiest decision, but honestly I can say the kill cone is the way to go and since then it’s been way...

Hello I would be interested in some advice on farm store chicks vs egg hatch trick. My hen went broody two weeks ago. I gave in and put 4 fertile eggs (99% sure fertile bc I picked the eggs based on my roosters favorite hens) but sadly 3/4 broke yesterday and she was full of yolk and her own...

If the 4 pics are 4 separate chickens my guess is #1,2, and 4 are pullets #3 cockerel

Hello! I am in St Clair County MI too. I know your post is a couple months old, but if you are still looking to expand I have a couple baby chicks (4 weeks) I am looking to rehome. Message me if you are interested in more info. Thanks!

Hello, seeking to rehome 2 Buff Orp (roo) x Golden Laced Wyandotte (hen) cross chicks. Approx. 4-weeks old. Sex unknown, but suspecting one is a cockerel (NOODLE) one is a pullet (BUTTERCUP). Hatched from home incubator this pair are 100% siblings. Born on 04-01-2023. HEALTHY - both parents...

Create two separate flocks once your other baby chicks are old enough (near laying) so that each rooster has their own set of hens. Rarely do male roosters happily coexist with each other when hens are around. I say this out of experience and also empathy because I truly understand what it...

She could egg bound-but either way I would get her into a small tub with warm water and 1/8-1/4 cup epsom salt she will flip out a little at first but gently emerse her and hold onto her she will eventually let her body sink into the water and relax. If he can do this for at least 20m it should...

Hello I’m still in the “unknown” zone on # of roos / pullets. I had 9/9 hatch I have my suspicions of my roos so far I’m leaning toward 2 out of 9 so far … my buff orp x Barred cross and buff orp x Golden laced (comb is reddening pretty good on this one)!
