    Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

    Thank you. I did update the pics on my post so hopes those pictures help. I am hoping she isn't a roo because we want to keep her & have 10 chickens, one of which is a big barred rock roo a week older. I put food and water in the coop just for her where she likes to hid. We ordered 7 sex links...

    Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

    Hello, I have what I think is an Aracauna that is about 9wks old. I'm trying to find out if she is a rooster or just at the bottom of the pecking order because she hides in the coop from the other chicks all around the same age except for 3 that are a wk older (one of those 3 is a roo & starting...

    Suppose to be a Golden comet or a Red Sex link but possibly neither???

    Thanks I noticed the rest all were similar. Here are the ones we got from my daughters 1st grade hatch. We were told #3 may be a he...but who knows we don't even know what they are really. So it's a waiting game I think. # 1 is all light yellow with white wings, black skin & furry legs/feet...

    Suppose to be a Golden comet or a Red Sex link but possibly neither???

    Thanks! I'm thinking I may already have a cockerel or two from the 3 chicks I got from my daughters class hatch of other breeds. Can I keep 2-3 Roos with 7 hens? I've never had a Rooster before but I would hate to have to get rid of any.

    Suppose to be a Golden comet or a Red Sex link but possibly neither???

    Ok so I now know the all yellow one with furry feet is definitely not like others and a possible cochin or something else. However, I had one more in the box that looks different so am now curious about that one as well. Its the same size as the rest but more yellow with a very distinct stripe...

    they also had rare Cochins delivered the same day as well so maybe it's that. Honestly, I can't really see its comb. There is a tiny little bit of one I think I see but it won't hold still to really look.

    Suppose to be a Golden comet or a Red Sex link but possibly neither???

    Hello, We got 7 chicks yesterday we ordered from our local family owned store that were just delivered from the hatchery that morning. We ordered 4 Golden Sex links and 3 Red sex links. However, one of the chicks seems to be lighter than the others and has furry legs. My daughter named "her"...

    4-5wk old Buff Orpington I think is a Rooster

    That's what I was thinking, good to know from others to help confirm. Thankfully I have someone who wants a buff rooster. I really like their breed, Sad to have one go but still have my 3 RI Reds, & 2 BO chicks left. Thanks again for opinions!

    4-5wk old Buff Orpington I think is a Rooster

    Hello, I got 3 Buff orpingtons a few wks ago and was told they were all suppose to be hens. I have included a photo below but I think one is a Rooster. I can't have a rooster where I live so am kinda bummed. I wanted to get feedback from here before I look for a new home for him. Little...

    Is Hex Netting the same thing as Chicken Wire?

    I had the same question. I was at Lowes today and they had Hex netting that said in the description on the label that it was Galvanized hardwire cloth.. It was 24inx50ft for only $8.27! The actual shelf where hardwire cloth was label as such was so much more expensive than this one labeled hex...
