What do people do with boy chicks?
hi everyone! I was thinking about one day hatching out some eggs and I was thinking what would happen if I hatched more cockerels than pullets. Of course everyone wants more pullets but the reality is that you get half of each. People say that they keep their chickens in a 1:10 ratio of roosters...- Lili Smith

Sex my 8 week old silkie/bluebell chick
I do know that the white one is a boy but I was asking about the red because they both have it even though they are different breeds so I was wondering if it was something that only boy chickens get- Lili Smith

Sex my 8 week old silkie/bluebell chick
Yes my silkie is my only rooster but the white chick was bought from someone else so I am not fully sure of his breeding. Seeing as both my grey chick and my white chick have developed the red pattern on them and they are completely different breeds does that show that they are both boys?- Lili Smith

Sex my 8 week old silkie/bluebell chick
My silkie rooster does have a walnut comb and he is white. My other two chicks are cream legbar crosses and both have different amounts of comb growth and colour to my silkie/bluebell chick. Does the red coming through on its wings and back mean cockerel? My cockerel chick has the same red...- Lili Smith

Sex my 8 week old silkie/bluebell chick
It took me a long time to be sure that it is a silkie/bluebell cross because a lot of my chickens lay very similar eggs. I posted a couple of weeks ago and I had 5 responses, 1 said cockerel and 4 said pullet. I wonder what has changed - could it be the photos or maybe my description? Here are...- Lili Smith

Sex my 8 week old silkie/bluebell chick
i have been told by some people that they think this chick is a hen but she acts more like a cockerel. She fights with my cockerel chick and is very brave when exploring. She is one week younger than my other two chicks but weighs more than the other two did when they were the same age - this...- Lili Smith
