Updated photos of our chicks! After a few questions on breeds, I think we nailed it…maybe. Now we are (not so patiently) waiting to find out genders.
Speckled Sussex
BW Crested Polish
Black Australorp
Barred Cochin
Appenzeller Spitzhauben
White Ameraucana (because the legs are gray)
I'm ordering some polish chicks to replace some other chicks that a dog attack took from me and I'm reading mixed reviews. Some people love them, some people say they just die at the drop of a hat.....I have silkies and crevecoeurs so I'm familiar with crested birds I just need to know if I...

Thought it might be fun to connect with others from the Commonwealth! I'm from Gloucester (essentially Tidewater). A happy victim of chicken math, I have 3 Delawares, 3 Columbian Wyandottes, 4 Isa Browns, 4 Golden Polish, and 3 Golden Penciled Hamburgs. My first flock raised from chicks.... week...
I've got two silkies that are almost 4 months old now. I'm suspecting that the light colored one is a male and the darker brown MIGHT be a pullet. I've never had silkies before so I'm unfamiliar with their development. Although one is growing a comb already so like I said, I do think it's a he...
Hello!

I have 3 silkies and 1 polish that is a crowing his head off the past 2 weeks.
Today when I let them out to roam, he is literally chasing the silkies around like a mad man. He chased Vanilli right into the run, all through the run and back out again.
Then he came over to Mango and tried to...
Any ideas on genders? They are 5 weeks old. I know it's a bit too early but I need to know which chicks I can get attached to...
Darwin is my chamois frizzle. S/he has a flat but round crest. The under-beak is still pink. I've always wanted a chamois polish so I really hope for a girl...
We have this single lil one hatched under a broody hen. Started with 8 eggs, only two passed the 18 day test and this one is only hatched. Wondering if we have an Ana or Oleg? ( granddaughter had the task of naming) :celebrate
I'm considering getting a Polish bantam roo for my bantam flock, however the one I'm looking at is 1 year old and my flock is around 12 weeks. My instinct tells me this isn't a good idea. I'm still fairly new to this so opinions please!!
