5 months old. I haven’t heard him crow once, there’s another roo the same age as him and he’s definitely obvious about it. Everyone thought when he was younger he was definitely a roo…help! Thanks.

This guys is about 5 months old. From what I can tell he’s a booted bantam but never knew for sure. Thoughts?

Yes, same bird. And I know…

I have 9 birds total. I believe 3 are pullets and the others are Roos. I got them from someone who hatched them and it appears to be a very roo-heavy hatch. I knew I was taking a risk but didn’t think I’d get so many Roos.

This crew is about 8 weeks old now. Majority are Roos I believe. Can you help identify? There is some crowing but I haven’t caught who it is yet. There are 9 total. I can only really identify 2 females.

Thought so. Any idea on breed? Specifically the light grey?

I have posted before with these guys but buying them straight run from someone who wasn't sure the breed (they thought EE, OE, Orpington). The photos I am attaching I think are all Roos based off their comb and wattle size/color. Thoughts?

Update! 3.5-4 weeks old now. There are a couple w bigger combs and in general they are big. A couple are tiny like bantams 🤷‍♀️

It can eat and drink but only by dragging itself to the food and water. I will take pics when I get home from work. Thank you!

I'm sure there are a few roos in there but I'm not sure which yet. When I was picking out the ones I wanted I tried to pick ones that looked female but who knows haha.

I bought these from a local farm. They thought they had an idea of what kind of chickens they have but I’m not sure he actually knew. Some he thought were: Orpington Olive Egger Easter Egger Thanks!

Hi I just received some 2-3 week old chick from a local farm. They didn’t know what to do with the chick with splay leg. I’m hoping it’s not too late and she can still have a good quality life. I was going to do the straw splint?

Hi - one of my hens has been lethargic for the past 2-3 days. I thought maybe she was egg bound but now I think it’s something else. See photo attached. She’s about 4yrs old, one of my OGs. Everyone else in the flock is fine. She’s walking funny like hunched over almost. Her feet are reddish -...

Here she is at about 6.5 weeks. Still doesn’t have black skin!

Thanks all for the responses! Here’s an updated photo from today.
