    Barred Plymouth Rock gender 16 week

    These are my Dad's chickens. I noticed they are both a tad lighter in color than his 3rd Barred Plymouth Rock. I hope I'm not spotting early saddle feathers. Can anyone help confirm these are pullets for my Dad? 😄

    8 week speckled sussex roo??

    Does my speckled Sussex look like a roo? I've been hoping not, but the comb has been coming in red. Almost 9 weeks old.

    Roos? Americana + OE

    Here's updated pictures of my OE, still hoping he's a she. Pics are labeled #2 from my camera roll, he/she's still #1 from my original post. 6 weeks And to add more, here are my other 2 Sapphire Olive Eggers, that I'm praying are pullets... And another...

    Hopefully females - wyandottes, ameracana

    Here are my Wyandottes today at 6 weeks. It’s hard to get a good picture of them. They aren’t as friendly as my others. Any signs of pullet or cockerel yet?? They should be pullets, but my Americana that I posted already started crowing. Now I’m wondering about my others. 😆 Hard to tell apart...

    Roos? Americana + OE

    I’ll update as the weeks go on. I’m thinking I have 2 Roos too. Would 20 hens be enough to keep both Roos? 7 of those hens are older and the rest are pullets.

    Roos? Americana + OE

    I just took these pics today, same 2 birds. Any changes? They are both pretty calm and easy to handle. Over 5 weeks now. I hope the Americana turns out to be a pullet. 😆

    Thank you! I’m really hoping I only have 1 Roo in the mix. 😬

    Roos? Americana + OE

    Might be too early, these chicks are almost 5 weeks. I purchased all females from a hatchery. 1. I’m almost certain that my Sapphire Olive Egger is a Roo. He/She is a darker gray than my others, has a bigger comb, and shorter tail feathers. 2. This Americana seems bigger than my others, red...

    Should there be some kind of oversight required?

    True! It wouldn't work very well.

    Should there be some kind of oversight required?

    The spontaneous purchases are likely the problem. People aren’t planning ahead, they just get excited and buy at the moment. Too bad there isn’t a holding period. Like buy the chicks and take home the next day. That wouldn’t be as successful for the feed stores.
