Haha, good eye! The Sussex is definitely a cockerel! Out of 9 straight run, we got 8 cockerels 🤪 Thinking the blue laced red Wyandotte is male too (or at least seems to be the census)🤦🏼♀️
Can anyone tell me what sex my two 13 week Buff Orpingtons are? Very early on I thought one was for sure a cockerel and one was a possibly a pullet, that might have just been wishful hoping. Now I’m thinking they’re both cockerels.
My family and I got day old chicks from a local hatchery back in August. We paid for what was supposed to be a Cream Legbar pullet chick, and we’re told it was a KNOWN pullet because they’re auto-sexing. Well, Patty started looking suspicious right out of the gate with large, bright comb &...

We hatched this little guy two days ago and noticed he couldn’t walk. I have tried bracing the legs but it doesn’t seem to be making any improvement. We started with the hair tie straw brace which kept sliding off. So then I tried using koban on the legs & bandaids on the feet because I noticed...
Hello,
We bought a few chicks from TSC last week, all were supposed to be barred rock. We got home & discovered one was definitely not a barred rock. When we went back to ask what other breed was in the same pen and were told silver laced Wyandotte (but they didn’t really seem very confident)...
