    welsummer Hen or Roo?

    Here is a pic of a Welsummer I have that acts a little like a Rooster. It looks like a Hen to me but is larger than my other welsummer and will even fight my dog, but does not fight my Polish Rooster. It doesn't crow, but I'm just not sure if its a Hen or Roo? Any thoughts, please advise?

    Hens pecking my shoe and leg

    Or it could be they are curious about my shoes and pecking is a way for them to explore.

    Hens pecking my shoe and leg

    I keep the feed bowl full so its definitely not that, but I think its more of a way they choose to communicate with me. My birds are only 7 months they just started laying last month.

    Hens pecking my shoe and leg

    Hi everyone, Every morning when I go out to feed my flock they are waiting anxiously, then I enter their yard area and they all run up to me and surround my feet. Sometimes they will actually peck my shoes. this morning they were all in my way so I took my hand and pushed a few out of my way...

    Rooster eating Lay mash

    That's a good one I will look for something similar. I think this 50 pound bag would be okay to feed my flock. Its only going hurt the rooster over a long period of time correct?

    Rooster eating Lay mash

    So this would require me to separate the rooster for a period of time to allow the hens to eat raw oyster shell?

    Cross Breeding Polish Roosters with My Hens?

    Thanks to everyone for the great response I now know they need to be separated from the hens or find one of them a new home. I really like having these roosters and wasn't planing on breeding chickens or having more than 6 in my yard. I have to make a dissension and contemplate my options...

    Hello from Jestin

    I am on the fence right now whether to separate my roosters or find them a new home. I believe they are legal here, I bought them no more than a half mile from here at the feed bin. These polish Roosters are really cool and my kids heart would break if I got rid of them.

    Cross Breeding Polish Roosters with My Hens?

    Hi Everyone, This is my fist post on BYC and my first time raising chickens. In January I bought 6 chicks at random from the local feed bin. I wanted to raise chickens for eggs alone and not to breed. I ended up with two long Island Red hens, one Sussex hen and one Ameraucana hen. I also ended...
