    Idaho?

    If I lived closer, I would be interested in your black copper marans. Dang it.

    Idaho?

    Hi all, I'm new here and I'm in Boise. We're new to the chicken game. We got 6 hens about 6 months ago but I think there was a miscommunication with the guy we got them from and now we are down to 2 of those 6 (3 died of old age....they were supposed to be young). Over the last 2.5 months...

    The Silver Laced Wyandotte Thread

    Well, shoot. I was holding out hope because even though they both have similar comb and wattles, one of the them is a bit smaller and oranger and because the one with the oranger comb doesn't have as much white on him than the other one. Here are some pictures I just took today. I think it's...

    The Silver Laced Wyandotte Thread

    Are both of these cockerels? We got three Silver Wyandottes straight run. One was killed by a neighbors dog and I was hoping that one of the remaining 2 would be a pullet but I don't think it's looking good. What do you all think? They are about 10 weeks old in these pictures.

    What breed are the black chickens?

    Yes, as they get older, the eggs should get bigger.

    How many roosters should I keep?

    Thanks everyone. We do free range during the day (they have about 1/2 an acre). At night, they all go into the same coop (it's big, used to be an outdoor shed/storage building that we made into a coop). We'll see how it goes. After posting pictures on here and asking for others to help...

    Black Copper Marans - Roos or hens?

    Oh, so if it doesn't have a comb and wattle it's a hen and if it does, it's a rooster? Is that correct? Looks like I'm gonna have a lot more roosters than I originally thought. It looks like my 2 Silver Wyandottes are roosters too. So, that's 6 roosters out of the 7 straight run chicks that...

    Black Copper Marans - Roos or hens?

    We bought 5 Black Copper Marans straight run about 2 months ago. I think that maybe 3 of them are roosters, what do you all think?

    Roosters or hens? Silver Wyandottes

    Shoot, I was hoping one of them was a hen. We have 17 chickens that are about 2-3 months old and if these are both roosters, then that puts us at 5 roosters out of the 17 chickens. We are only planning on keeping 1 or 2 roosters at this point.
