I received these 3 in a mixed box from Cackle. Any ideas on breeds? I am thinking cinnamon queen for 3 and leghorn for 1, but 2 has me confused. Thanks!
With they way they act, I was thinking all of them were roos. They all strut around like they own the place. What do you see that makes you say roo though? If I am going to keep hatching eggs, I was wondering what I should be looking for.
I have four 7 week old chicks that I can't figure out if they are pullets or cockerels. I don't see any pointy hackle feathers but I am not sure when they would show up. Two of the grey ones have some light brown feathers coming in on their wings and the reddish one has some green feathers in...
Definitely get at least 2 so they have a playmate. Both from the same place if possible so they have a friend that they already know. If you don't have plans to breed, 2 wethers would work best -cheaper and no hormones to deal with. And enjoy! They are a lot of fun.
