    Pullet or Cockerel?

    It's undoubtedly a boy because he just crowed! 😅 I started treating him differently after the advise from this post. I haven't sit down in the run and let him jump on me at all. No more holding or petting him aside from one time but it was fully on my terms. I searched the forums here and read...

    I'll definitely be researching roosters and how to raise them properly. I've got children who will need to go into the run daily, so we can't have an aggressive rooster. Thank you for the information!

    What breed is this brown and white chick?

    Thanks! I saw Isa Brown was one of the chicken breeds possibly sold at the TSC where my husband and kids bought them.

    Thank you! I'll look up the red sex-link. My Google questions keep leading me here, so I figured I better join because I'm going to need some help. 😅

    What breed is this brown and white chick?

    She's around 6 weeks old. Can someone identify the breed? I'm new to this chicken stuff, and my husband didn't pay attention to the breeds when he bought them. 🤦🏼‍♀️
