    Barnevelder Rooster?

    I bought a few chicks in September. The barnevelder just turned 24 weeks and I think it's a rooster not a hen. No eggs, no crow, what do you think?

    Chicken Nipple/Waterers

    We got our ready to go nipple waterer set up from http://www.avianaquamiser.com/ I know they also sell DIY packs and the hard to find drill bit you need.

    What breed or mix is this hen?

    When I purchased some pullets from a craigslist ad she threw this older hen in for free because she often goes broody. She lays light brown eggs and is much bigger than my other full size hen a Welsummer/Astralorp cross. Any ideas on what breed or breeds she might be?

    Inheirited coop

    We just moved to a new house with an existing chicken coop. Is there any specific maintenance or cleaning I should do before purchasing a new flock?

    Is this a Barred Rock?

    updated pics, I'm beginning to think she's a Roo, what do you think? She's the first one of my bunch (5 weeks old now) whose comb is turning red.

    Is this a Barred Rock?

    It appears to have a single comb. Her legs are yellow with a splash of black down the front. BR pullet maybe?

    Is this a Barred Rock?

    I hatched a group of mostly EE eggs and I'm wondering if this is a barred rock? The chick is two weeks old and is beginning to get striped looking wing feathers. It appears to have a small dot on the back of the head. What do you think?

    Newbie ? about feathers (pic)

    My EE chicks are a week old now and their wing and tail feathers are growing in. Is this the color that they will stay? My favorite chick has such pretty wing feathers I'm hoping that this is her coloring!
