    Buying chicks from Tractor Supply

    I’m not sure. I bought 3 Silver Laced Wyandotte, 2 black Australorps, and 3 light Brahmas. All pullets. One Wyandotte and one Australorp died in the first two days. I can tell which are the Light Brahmas and they are definitely the correct breed. But 1 may be cockerel. Then I think one black...

    Buying chicks from Tractor Supply

    Brahma teenager type and gender?

    I really hope she is a pullet. She is probably closer to 7 or 8 weeks old based on size comparison to the light Brahmas. But it is so hard to tell. She has been super slow to feather in too. We have a super sweet Roo that we would adopt that is a Wyandotte from a friend. All the silkies kinda...

    Brahma of unknown specific type. Age : picture of baby chick was from May 3rd when I got it. It has been almost 6 weeks since then. Do we know if it is a pullet or cockerel and what type of Brahma it is? Right now she is Esther but I don’t know if I need to call her Ian instead. I know it is...
