    What is this black on comb?

    That would make sense it just looked so angry all of a sudden. He’s the only rooster with 12 hens. And one of them goes after him with a vengeance

    What is this black on comb?

    What is this black on my roosters comb and wattles?

    Is the brown chick a boy?

    All the white ones look like pullets to me. The light brown and white looks like a roo. I can’t tell for the mostly brown guy. I’m leaning toward roo. All are mixes

    3.5 month old silkie - girl or boy?

    How can you tell? I am starting to think so because my only other male picks on him. There really is no significant comb or wattle development though and i hatched them second week of August. My other male bird is a polish and it is very obviously male traits and crows etc

    3.5 month old silkie - girl or boy?

    This chicken is about 3.5 mos old. No crowing or anything foolproof. Today she/he became very aggressive toward the same age for sure silkie boy. To the point of pulling out feathers and causing blood.

    Is there any chance this is a pullet?

    No they are pretty frisky. The wildest out of my flock of the same age birds

    Is there any chance this is a pullet?

    Two 13 -14 week old TSC sapphire splash “pullets”. No crowing yet but I’m worried.

    8 week old polish

    I have two left that are not obvious boys. But there is still time of course.

    8 week old polish

    These birds are tricky. This one I was really convinced was a girl. No wattles even weeks after two developed wattles. This guy crowed a lot this morning.

    6 week old sapphire splash

    This one in the back is the one I am on the fence about. Has more of a comb but not wattles

    6 week old sapphire splash

    I have 4 sapphire splash pullets purchased from TSC and estimate 6-7 weeks old. Two have more red combs wattle development. Is this suggestive of gender in this breed? All purchased as pullets

    8 week old polish

    These are two of my 8 week old polish chicks. They are the only two that have red around their comb and wattle development. The lighter guy has crowed so definitely a cockerel. Do the wattles on the other indicate boy too?

    Nestera wagon

    Thank you for your thorough reply! I am new to chickens and mine are still babies right now so I have no experience with any type of coop set up. Right now they are in a highly controlled area in my back yard but they won’t be able to fit there at full size. I really like the idea of the wheels...
