Oh No! If that's the case then I have 3 roo's. I have 1 other that caught up in about a week but still not as long. I figured it was just a Lil older. I do have 1 that looks a Lil rooish with a shorter tail and seems really red in face and under neck. But the more I read and look at pics I am...
Yes I have one that has long tail feathers an the other 3 have more of a puff ball. They are about 14 weeks give or take a week? If u click on me I think it will go to my profile an the thread is "my beautiful buff Brahmas"
He is so pretty! Thanks for the pic and the info, I never would've figured that out just by reading when people explain that "its pointed feathers by the tail" I was thinking "good grief they are covered in feathers" LOL. So I guess I will stick it out for a couple more weeks and they will be...
Yes! Taking a shot in the dark with 4 of them was a very brave move on my behalf. But they were so awesome with their feathered feet, and they truly are gentle giants! I did get 4 white leghorns though because I was making sure i would get eggs one way or another! But what would I do with 4...
I hear people saying check for saddle feathers but I dont know what they look like! But here are some face shots because I thought one had a really red face but then a couple days later they all turned red LOL, the combs are small so they all look the same to me but i am new so i have no clue...
My buff brahmas have grown so fast but still have no idea their sex. I have 4 of them and only one has a very long tail and the other 3 more of puff ball like tail feathers. The one with the long tail has feathered faster and has always been a bit heftier, maybe it is a lil older and the others...
I just went outside 20 minutes ago and did that to all 8 of my chickens after watching it on YouTube! How funny that u mention it, although I don't think it's accurate cuz only 1 out of 4 of my hens made her tail fan out, and my other 4 that aren't sexed just wanted me to put them right side up...
I am a first timer so everything is a guessing game to me! Don't worry....I have kept them very warm and fed and watered. I have 4 white leghorn (pullets) I hope, and 4 buff Brahmas that were pulled.from a straight run bin on the hopes of getting 3 hens and a roo (I know...wishfully thinking)...
I have a 80 pound boxer mix and he is 2, I don't know if I just got lucky but he loves them an is very protective over them! I just let him see an smell them an acted like it wasn't a big deal, if u seem panicky about the dog being around them the dog seems to be more aggressive to figure out...
My husband and I decided to move with our 4 kids to the country over a year ago. I knew I had the land and free will to do with it what I wanted ;-) So we finally got some chicks. I have been researching but it seems there is a lot to learn. While our 8 chicks (4 white leghorn pullets) (4 buff...
