    Cannot ID the breeds of my new chickens

    Oh, I don't mind at all that he's not aggressive. I prefer it. I had two other roosters who were raised from chicks (a Barred Rock and possibly a Rhode Island Red) and still attacked me every time I walked into the run. I had to get rid of them both. My girls are in a secure run, so I'm not...

    Cannot ID the breeds of my new chickens

    Yes, she IS very skittish. I think she may have been laying, though, because I've been getting some very small eggs, which were cream-colored, in my daily collection (I thought they were the eggs that my younger chickens were laying, since they've just started), and once I found one on the...

    Cannot ID the breeds of my new chickens

    I would like some help in identifying breeds of two chickens I recently acquired. They've been running around our neighborhood for months, so I finally caught them and put them in with my girls.

    Can anyone identify this chick?

    I noticed that. I wasn't sure, though, because some of the photos shown in the search had feathered feet, and some didn't. I've only ever had ISA Browns and Golden Comets (and just recently, a Barred Rock), so anything else is new to me. Plus, a lot of these breeds look alike to me, so... I...

    Can anyone identify this chick?

    Hoover's Hatchery ID was one of the first places I tried. Then I tried another site where you could upload a pic, but the breed it suggested didn't look anything like her. I was thinking I'd just check out the color of her comb when it starts to develop. I'm guessing if it's not black, I can...

    Hey, peeps! :D

    I first got chickens about three years ago...by complete accident. An ISA Brown and her white Naked Neck rooster showed up in my yard one day and started decimating my plants. After about two weeks of this, I asked around, and no one claimed them, so I caught them and put them in an improvised...

    Can anyone identify this chick?

    I bought this female chick at a Tractor Supply. She was the last chick in a brooder that said Orpington, but the employee told me that she was a Mystic Onyx. As a young chick, she was completely black from beak to toes, but within the last week or so, her color has begun changing, so I'm not...
