Hey there! These Rhode Island’s reds are about 5 weeks old. Based on the comb and waddle it looks like I have one pullet and one cockerel. Does that seem right? Thoughts? Thanks!
So interesting! I have a EE that just started laying today, and in the last few days I noticed how vibrant red her comb was compared to before. Makes sense now!
She is beautiful! Yes, mine kept one leg up just like yours is in the picture. Both my hens that were injured are about 4 months old and haven’t stated laying yet so we didn’t have to worry about that. yes about a whole week— which wasn’t ideal but needed. A few days in we let them out of...
Hey! They are doing much better. We isolated them for a week to heal. We widened the roosting bar and added a ladder. We also made sure we had some more wood shavings to cover the floor of the coop for them to land on. Hopefully yours can be healed and feeling better soon too!

Hi! I previously posted about having to rehome my rooster due to zoning. (We never intended on having a rooster, but it happened and we will miss him!) I’m happy to share that we found a good home for him!
Anyways, will my flock miss him? I’m worried that the girls will get sad. Clearly I’m...
Thanks for the response! Sorry to hear you he to remove your cockerel.
My husband is pretty worried that ours will become a problem with neighbors and kind of wants to get rid of him before it gets even harder to say goodbye. So far he is a nice rooster. He let’s us pet and hold him. He’s so...
A couple other people said they looked like Easter eggers as well. I’m new to the world of chickens lol. I guess we’ll find out! Blue & green eggs would be super cool!
I’ll share some more closer up pictures and a picture of them as chicks.
