wellsummer

Hi everyone, I have two of my biggest chicks I want to confirm are pullets. Blue Plymouth Rock and a Wellsummer. They are currently 4 weeks old per the feed store worker but I'm curious if they are a little older than that. I read wellsummer females are darker than the males so I'm leaning she...

Hello everyone! Last year when I began my chicken journey, I had a lot of questions and this website had most of the answers I was looking for. Who knew these fuzzy chicken butts would steal my heart?? I started out with 25 chicks, chicken math took over and I ended last year with 47! (We...

Blurry images of chicks. They wouldn’t stay still and they didn’t like the flash. Oops. Does anyone want to guess as to what any of these chicks breeds are?
