    White Leghorns Screaming?

    I have two white leghorn hens (not completely sure of their genders) who will randomly scream. I'm not kidding when I say this, its a very shrill scream-like sound. Is this them starting to crow? Is it normal? Should I be scared? They're really nice for white leghorns, and I've had no issues...

    Breed help!

    Did a little googling, 1 and 2 look almost exactly like cream legbars. And if I am correct, they are chickens that can be autosexed by their feather color, meaning number 2 is almost certainly a rooster, right?

    Breed help!

    Chickens 1 through 4 are sexed pullets, although chicken 2 is looking like a cockerel. I also have two white leghorns in the background that aren't showing any super distinct features of male or female, so I'm just going to wait until they either crow or lay an egg 😂. We know we want to keep the...

    Breed/Gender of 1 Month Old Chick

    Okay, thanks for telling the breed! Here's a side by side comparison of the original chick and our cockerel (same age) I know some breeds develop gender-specific traits sooner than others, so that could be what's happening here. I also am not sure of the age, but I know they are the same age.

    Need Help With a Rooster

    This isn't our first flock. We have raised 3 others, all hens, and helped out with a friend's rooster. Of course, if it starts seeming aggressive at all we will remove it. All kids are over 10 and have helped care for the other flocks, but I will take most responsibility of this one due to the...

    Need Help With a Rooster

    I have 7 chickens, 3 of which were unsexed, and 4 of which are sexed hens. One of the three unsexed chickens is a rooster. I really want to keep it but I also want eggs. I also know how aggressive roosters can be and I don't want an aggressive rooster. I've heard about caponizing but don't know...
