    WHAT BREED DO I HAVE?

    Thanks for replying. I appreciate when people take the time to share their Chicken advice. ; ) My daughters are pretty excited. We started off with 12 chicks, 1 died just a week old and 2 ended up roosters. Although I was hoping for a Welsummer at the beginning my daughters were excited...

    WHAT BREED DO I HAVE?

    I knew it! I do think she is lovely myself. Although I had hoped for a welsummer chick I was somewhat disappointed I didn't get a 2nd easter egger at the time I bought all my chicks. Welp, now I have a second! lol Thanks for your input, I appreciate it.

    SEXING?? 4 1/2 Wk old Cochin/BLRW/&Cooper Maran

    Well my chicks are now 9 weeks. My cochin is most assuredly a rooster as everyone predicted. Not yet crowing but lots of comb and wattles and attitude to boot. Here are my BLRW and Copper Maran. I only got one good shot of the maran since she/he doesn't let me pick it up. What do you think...

    SEXING?? 4 1/2 Wk old Cochin/BLRW/&Cooper Maran

    Well I'll take it! My other older blue laced is a cockerel so I was hoping this one was a girl. I was also hoping my copper maran was a girl but like you said we'll give it time. Thanks for your thoughts.

    *SEXING HELP**BLRW 10wks

    Wow. Thanks for the replies. Looks like 5 out of 5 say Rooster! I would have been surprised (although secretly hoping) he was a she. Interesting thoughts on roosters being friendly at a young age. I am a first time chicken keeper and I had always heard roosters were 'violent'.LOL. Well, I...

    *SEXING HELP**BLRW 10wks

    Chicken has had a red comb since very young. Very docile bird and the friendliest of the bunch. Not sure if this is just because of a trait. Very friendly except with meeting my younger chicks (began pecking them). Seems like it is trying to crow (like a pre-teen finding his voice) but I...
