breed and color

Was told it was "a gold star" but I don't know :/ his/her tail is growing in miraculously slowly and is much much smaller than the 4 other chicks I got at the exact same time. I know there are late bloomers.. but they are all 7 weeks old and this one is half the size of the others. According to...

Help name this breed. TSC had no idea (brown with eyeliner not the white chicks). Hoping for either red or green Junglefowl. Lmk thoughts please. Picture was taken today about 3 weeks. All bantams.

I haven't weighed her but she has laid two very large tan eggs with white speckles, and she is much heavier than my other chickens (Bottom egg is hers) And is there any way to tell age?

Hello I have the sweet little rooster probably weighs a pound or 2 He is a bantam But i'm not familiar with all of the colors so Is he recognizable Would you call him mottled or speckled

These 2 tiny black gals are tiny bantams! There is a yellow peeper-ed roo too. I'm unsure of his breed as well. Excuse the muddy coop. We've had non stop rain. Finally got some gravel ordered and for the time being got wood shavings down to dry it up. What are these guys?

Hello, I recently purchased Seven marans from the Maran assortment box at my local Hoovers hatchery dealer. Four of them appear to be black copper marans/ or midnight majesties. One of them having darker feathered feet than the others. The other chicks I’m not so sure (3). They have feathered...

I bought eggs off etsy and the listing was for "rare blue fawn and other mixed variety breeds". I was wondering if anyone can assist with breed identification. If it helps, my observations are that I have: 1 yellow with ginger stripes chick 2 yellow with silver stripes chicks 1 yellow with...

Hello! This spring I purchased what I thought were 7 olive eggers, 3 mystic maran, 3 brahma and 2 americuanas. What I've ended up with are 2 black copper marans, 1 of which is a rooster, and 8 french black marans. However, the black copper maran hen is laying a sage colored egg and the french...

Hi I have a 7 months yo drake and honestly idk if he's a Magpie or Anacona..His spots are not that chaotic like anacona ducks but it's not like magpie ducks neither..He's a Magpie imo but I'm not sure

I inherited a baby chicken, wasn't told anything about her. She is very pretty but I cannot for the life of me figure out what she is. She looks similar to our lavender Orpington, but she doesn't have the butt floof like the Orpington does. Black legs. Any thoughts?

Picked up three pullets from the poultry swap yesterday, I know the black one is a Copper maran but what about the silver and brown ones?

Does anyone know what breed this is? She's a tiny white chicken, small/ almost no comb, and a few black feathers. Sweet, but very fast and flighty! So far no eggs yet. Her name is Cluckles.

Back in March I got day old ducks and ended up with 2 drakes and 2 ducks, once they were 4 months I got 3 more girls 7-12 weeks old that were mixed but I still can’t tell the breeds as I am new to this. I was told I was given a Welsh harlequin (biggest), buff Orpington (smallest) and a Swedish...

I had a black sex link hen, she died of heart attack due to a fox attack. I cried a lot :( Anyhow i decided to incubate her egg to have her memory. So i took her eggs out of the fridge which was kept for few days and kept in hay ,turning every day for 2 weeks .When i got my incubation machine...

My husband and I got 4 baby ducks today and we’re having a hard time identifying the breeds. Can anyone help?

I bought pullets from tractor supply in March 2023 and they are supposed to be: 2 Starlight Green Eggers 1 Prairie Bluebell 2 Golden Comets 1 Sapphire Gem (which I’m pretty sure is actually a rooster) 1 Easter Egger I’m stumped now with figuring out which is which (except for the Golden comets...

I got this wee one from an assorted bin at TSC a little over 2 months ago. I’ve added a photo from about the 1 month mark and then today. I’ve looked up different breeds and haven’t seen one that even remotely looks like her. You can also kind of see in the photo that she has blue/purple feather...

I got 4 chicks the yellow is an Isa Brown and the 3 black ones were labeled as Barnevelders but after some research I didn’t see any that looked like mine. Could I have been given a different breed or could these chicks in fact be Barnevelders?

I bought both chicks from a local feed store and wanted thoughts on my Barnevelders. The lacing in one is more pronounced than the other and just has more color in general. One is black with little lacing and the other is more colorful. I know their feathers are new and they’ll look different...

Okay. So I have ducks. 2 pekin drakes that are in a separate space, and then 1 khaki Campbell hen and 2…/unknowns. Well I know 1 is a hen and 1 is a drake but no idea on breed. I got them at Atwood’s, in a straight run duckling bin. I thought the gal was a blue Swedish but she doesn’t have a...
