Update!!
Just wanted to update you and let you all know that my girls are now almost 13 weeks old and Ivy is definitely a SHE
Thank you all who replied and calmed me down a bit about this. I was so stressed out!
Ohhh, thank you so much everyone- now I can breathe a bit! I was so scared. The way her tail curves, the redness of her comb and waddle so early, and she is so slow growing compared to my other 3- who are so clearly females. Thank you all so so much!!

Absolutely! Our coop is in the shade, and it’s only been in the 80’s here. No extreme weather, it’s been absolutely perfect for theirs first week (and we bring them back in the afternoon.
Hello everybody! My name is Margo and I just got my very first flock of four chickens, named Darcy, Primrose, Rue and Ivy (salmon Favorelle, buff Orpington, Ameraucana, and silver laced Wyandotte) ! I LOVE them so much and I could really use the support of all you experienced chicken “parents”...
