    Easter Egger with a crest?

    I purchased two pullets (Cream legbar hen x Easter Egger roo) that look exactly like yours!

    Beautiful all black silkie cross?

    Hey all! Lots of new chicks this year, and hubby and daughter brought home tow mystery sisters from TSC. Must be silkie with the black skin and five toes. Maybe mixed with jersey giant? They are huge...eight weeks old and these pullets are bigger than our RIR cockerels. Smooth feathers...

    Crying hen? Maybe sneezing?

    Hi everyone. Went out to the coop today and noticed that my nine-month-old buff Orpington was making And odd noise that sounded like a cry. Then I heard what I thought were a few sneezes. I’ve never heard this before and she is eating treats but looks distressed. There are no bubbles coming out...

    Lavender Orpingtons 16-1/2 weeks

    Do these help? It's so hard to get them still. But they all peeks out when I was collecting eggs so I was at least able to get good head shots of all three.

    Lavender Orpingtons 16-1/2 weeks

    Hi all! From time to time I post pics of these three to see what you all think about their gender. They will be 17 weeks on this week. The lighter colored one (back middle of the group pic and the one eating out of my hand) appears to be a rooster, although there hasn't been a crow yet. The...

    Lavender Orpingtons - gender help

    Updated pics of the possible roo..just about 13 weeks old. They don't stay still so sorry for the poor quality! Size wise, he is no larger than the other two.

    Lavender Orpingtons - gender help

    Here they are at about 9 weeks. Still a little unsure. I'm sure one, if not two, are pullets. The third (lighter color) has a turned up tail and slightly redder comb and very early waddles. But that same chick is smaller than the other two and no one has thick legs. Holding onto a bit of hope!

    Lavender Orpingtons - gender help

    hi all! Our lavender Orpingtons are 8 weeks. I have an opinion about their genders, but I'd love to hear other thoughts. The thing that throws me is that the lighter one is smaller than the other two. Thanks!

    Is my silkie a roo?

    Hey everyone! We recently rehomed a couple of roosters and sent a few others to the butcher. We had a white silkie roo (same age) who had massive comb and wattles and was crowing. Our other silkie (pictured) was much smaller and very timid (bottom of pecking order) so we assumed she was a...

    Are they getting close to POL?

    hello! We are so anxiously awaiting our first egg from someone, anyone in the coop! I am hoping we are getting close. Several of the girls seem much more relaxed and willing to be handled, but that could also be because the last of the roosters are now gone and the coop is quiet. Do any of...
