    7 Week Old Gold Laced Polish Gender

    Thanks for the update! I wish I could help you! I'm kind of in the same boat, I have a gold laced polish too, but mine is really giving me roo vibes (pics for reference)

    Saddle Feathers?

    I feel like I'm starting to see some dark and pointy saddle feathers coming in on this polish chicken. Can anyone confirm if what I'm seeing is saddle feathers? For reference this is a 10 week old chicken.

    Muddy Chicken Yard

    We have part of your yard fenced for our chickens to give them the ability to 'free range' outside of their run.
