    Help! 20 week old bantams. Breeds?

    I'm curious about what my two 20 week old bantam girls are. Any idea? 1) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/jamie_marie/2012/C74C8748-C8A0-4AEE-A165-5062434816DB-965-0000015D7CD9AD25.jpg 2) Thank you! :)

    So, what do we all do with our first eggs?

    our Japanese bantam just began laying. We have 3 tiny eggs so far. We decided to wait until we have a dozen, then make an omelete or scrambled eggs. :)

    Does Egglaying Become Easier?

    Thanks for the reply! About 3 minutes after I posted this thread I went out back and found her on the patio. I checked the nesting box and sure enough, another little egg! She's layed two eggs in three days, so I don't think she's eggbound, I just think she's confused about what the heck is...

    Does Egglaying Become Easier?

    Vivian, our Japanese Bantam is 20 weeks old and just produced her first egg two days ago. I can tell she's working on laying another one today and she seems so stressed out! She's pacing back and forth, in and out of the coop and nesting box, flying on top of the coop (something she never does)...

    Three Pullets?

    Thanks! I hope you're right! :) Only one guess?? I would love it if more of y'all would weigh in. Any breed or gender guesses?

    Three Pullets?

    Our babies are 7 weeks old now. We have 3 bantams and one standard from Ideal. We know that one of our bantams is definitely a cockerel. I'm hoping that the other 3 are pullets. Can anyone tell me if I'm right? Any breed guesses are welcome too! :) Our cockerel on the left, Mystery Chick #1...

    At what age can Bantams go outside?

    Our four bantam girls will be 6 weeks on Monday and have been in their coop for almost a week. BUT we live in Florida and our night temps are low 70s.

    Thanks everyone! I appreciate the help!

    Too Soon To Tell?

    Thanks! The other three don't have combs nearly as large, which makes me think that "she" is. We've also witnessed her silently crowing (??), Fluffing up her chest feathers, bumping chests a lot more than the others, and it seems that she always wants to be perched higher up than the others...

    Too Soon To Tell?

    We're brand new to chickens, but really feel like our favorite "girl" may be a roo. He/she is 5 weeks old. Is it too soon to tell? We're not sure about his/her breed.

    Breeds of my 3 week olds?

    I am totally new at this, as these are our very first chickens. From googling "peacomb" I'd say that I *think* that's what they both have, but I honestly don't know. As for their feet, here are some photos that I just took. Thanks for taking the time to look! 1) 2) 3) 4)

    Breeds of my 3 week olds?

    I have four bantams. Well, I am starting to think that one may not be a bantam afterall! Can you help me guess their breeds? They're almost 3.5 weeks. I bought them from a local feed store, they're from Ideal. 1) Katy. Golden Sebright? Also, when can I tell if she's a roo? I just have a...
