    Our local feed store has been a nightmare. Having sold us 4 cockerels and 8 pullets. Nothing is a gurantee but they also had no idea on what breeds they were selling. Far back closest to the wall I was drawn to a chick who looked different than the rest. I asked what breed and they had no idea...

    10 week old Pullets or Cockerel??

    My chicks are now 10 weeks old.... 4 I am pretty sure are cockerels. The other 8 are pullets. 2 "roo" in the morning. My family and I love them dearly. We could not eat them or sell them. Currently adding finishing touches to our main coop. All of our chickens are in their now and come out...

    10 week old Pullets or Cockerel??

    Is there anything anyone suggests to do? We love them dearly. My brother and sister are in love with them as well. (8 and 9 years old) Can they not all be together? Should I go out and by a separate coop?

    10 week old Pullets or Cockerel??

    Thank you.. I guess I will just have to see if they start rooing.... 4 roosters with 8 hens is bad!

    10 week old Pullets or Cockerel??

    Our 12 chickens are now 10 weeks old.. 2 we know are cockerels and have started rooing in the morning. We are unsure about our Barred Rocks. Here is a few pictures and one of our Americana Roo's. Hoping they all can stay together. My family and I are outside with them for at least an hour or so...
