    Breed/age/gender? Mystery chicken

    I found this chick wandering. I'm thinking around 4-6 weeks maybe it's almost entirely feathered except for the neck? Maybe a roo? I thought it looked like a barred rock but it has some brown in the feathering as well. Any input appreciated.

    Yeah I'd go ahead and wrap it. 2-3 days worth should fix it.

    Looks great. It is definitely a challenge at first! You can probably voice sex your duck at this point. If it's raspy, quiet it's probably a boy. Loud quacker, a girl. Also as long as the ducks up moving around and eating then you didn't put it on too tight.

    I wouldn't worry about it being too late personally. From what I've seen ducks tend to really start showing signs of angel wing in the 6-8 week stage. Just wrap asap and I'm sure he'll be fine. My duck was wrapped around 7 weeks and had no issues.

    I would say he has the start of some angel wing. My Ancona drakes wing looked the same until I wrapped. He literally only needed 24 hours of being wrapped up before it fixed it. I used vet wrap. Took it off after 24 hours and it no longer bent outwards but it hung low. After a week or 10 days he...

    I didn't know hens did the neck flare, raptor style lunging thing. I have a dominant hen who's terrible to all new comers at first but she's more of a chaser and pecker of them as opposed to jumping and neck flaring. It's fun to watch them all interact. Such a complex society chickens can be!

    Golden laced Wyandotte gender?

    Well I believe you're all correct unfortunately. He's just started doing a bit of rooster fighting with the baby silkie cockerel I have for my flock.

    This bird is 3 months old. Hoping hen but probably roo? What do you think? This chicken doesn't always stand this tall. It was excited for treats.
