    What is the best breed to get for showing?

    I agree with BorderKelpie and shelleyd2008 My only sugestion might be to pick a bantam breed or an easy to handle large fowl breed. Bantams are defenetly popular with the Juniors in my area. Good luck choosing a breed/variety, it's hard to pick just one

    How do you stop your chickens getting stolen at a show?

    (this forum looks old, I hope it's ok to still post in it...) I would be a little concerned about people stealing birds. Last week at one of our local fair shows, a week long show, some one stole one of my friends birds (a white silkie male.) They are just getting started in poultry and...

    Langshan Chicks..blue or splash?

    He looks like he'll turn out to be a light blue with minimal lacing, just a guess. I've been working on my own strain of Blue Wyandotte Bantams and this year I got a variety of blue coloring, ranging from light with hardly any lacing to dark, and a few of them right on the money. The parent's to...

    What are the mostly white and black colored ones? I haven't seen chicks in that down color before. My best guess might be columbian, maybe mottled, or... perhaps silver sebrights?

    Three wks old, girlies or roos?? pls help

    It may be to soon to tell. it's hard to tell from the pictures too, my best guess would be all female. If you had top veiw shots of each chicks combs that might make it easier to tell. As a general rule, as chicks get older, (about the age your chicks are now, or older) males combs will start...

    White Leghorn Cross Gender????

    Well, at first glance I would say female just by the shape and feathering, the comb on the one in the back might sugest a male. If you could post another picture of them closer up, it should be easier to determin.
