Cool ill start looking for eggs. I have the nesting boxes prepped for them when they start. I have had them on layer feed for about 2 weeks now. I also have been mixing in oyster shells with their food forbthe same time. Theyare frre range from around noon until dark so i havent been guving them...
They brought them on on may 15th. They said they were 4 weeks old the. They were just starting to get feathers but were mostly covered with down. Im no expert so i can only guess lol. And oh yeah btw my friend in pic 5 gave me a clear indication that he was a roo this morning. Crowing his butt...
I wish i knew how old tbey were lol. That way i would know when to expect eggs! My kids showed up with a box full of chicks one day! So off to tractor supply i went to but an overboriced coop and supplies! Now i have to figure out a plan for a more permanant coop before winter.
The forth and fifth pics are actually 2 different birds. Sobyou think they are both roosters? Thanks alot for your help. I agree with your gender opinions. However i think one of the buffs is a pullet, that would be the one in the fifth picture. Im just judging by her tail feathers.
So im gonna post a few pics. I am new to raising chickens. My kids brought home 7 straight runs from a farm in ohio. I have my opinion on gender. Would like to compare with yours. Also any help on breed would be great as well lol
