    Is my barred rock rooster a hen?

    Okay, looking through our registration options, we only have 2 choices: "dual purpose" or "market". These are the "per county" shows, not the larger shows, so perhaps that's why the smaller categories choices. Our county leader suggested the silver laced in market, the australop in market and...

    Whoops, ignore the attachment- that's Fern. She has the wrong comb for a silver laced.

    Is my barred rock rooster a hen?

    He looks great! Ironically the same judge then tried to sell me some of his birds for hundreds of dollars 🙄 My daughter is only 10 so we pick her "show bird" on who is the most willing to cooperate and to be carried around. This year, she thinks she is up for entering 2-3 birds and is going...

    Is my barred rock rooster a hen?

    Her sister is very dark. So weird! Here is Daisy the sister, jealousy raging as I sat with our rabbits instead of her 😆 Do you think my daughter will have a successful show with FB or are the feathers too white? Last show, the judge (who didn't realize he needs to dial it down when judging...

    Is my barred rock rooster a hen?

    We have the beautiful and lovely temperamented "FB", short for Favorite Bird, who earned that nickname at just days old. He's very affectionate and enjoys sitting in your lap for cuddles. Considering how light he is compared to his sister and with input from this group, we determined FB is a...

    Selling silver laced wyandotte rooster - price?

    I have always let my birds sit on me. I personally think it gets them comfortable being handled (my daughter shows them in 4H so very necessary). The poop is the worst part - I have started wearing an oversized shirt when I'm sitting and bonding with them!

    Nobody on the local sites are posting prices - that's the issue. Everybody just says, message me to discuss price.

    Selling silver laced wyandotte rooster - price?

    I need to sell a 4.5 week old silver laced wyandotte chick that I feel confident is a rooster. He is pecking the other chick I feel confident is a rooster.

    Barred rocks amd silver laced wyandottes

    The barred rock legs have been giving me pause, too. He/she is quite the mystery! Has absolutely no interest in chest bumping the ones I feel stronger are male and does enjoy a cuddle. Although the last 2 barred rock chicks I had were totally different colors and both female.

    Barred rocks amd silver laced wyandottes

    Hello, I have 6 straight run silver laced wyandottes, 4 weeks old. I feel confident 2 of them are little roosters as their tail feathers are much smaller (took ages just to get to this stage), their combs sit higher, they have always been much lighter in color and 1 of them in particular is...

    What to do with one pullet? 😟

    We have 2 laying hens in an Omlet coop and run (designed for 3 large hens) and two 20 week old pullets hatched together who were about to be moved into an ajoining Omlet coop on their own. One of the laying hens, Lilac, is large and in charge, has no problem pecking the pullets (she did damage...
