    Broody old hen Vs New Roo

    How do you tell you chickens apart?

    Unfortunately there are few options amongst many chicks. Tags on the legs that have a place to write their names will help, However small and difficult to write/read. Cable ties come in many colors. Yet u could make a chart of what color's who.
