    Silkie thread!

    So one of my 6-7 month old silkies finally laid their first egg. I have a rooster/cockeral in there that is 4-5 months and just started crowing today. I cracked open the egg and it looks fertile but I would think he would be too young to mate with her. So my question is... is it fertile? I...

    Silver Penciled Barred Rock. Pullet or Cockeral?

    I'm no expert but what I noticed was my boys were growing a lot darker (black feathers around chest and wings) and that's why I questioned it. From my novice perspective, I would say girl from the chest alone.

    Plymouth Rock thread!

    Hi, I was wondering if you guys could help me. I bought these silver pencil barred rock from a guy who hatched some eggs. I got them when they were 4-5 weeks old and he said they were pullets. They are now 9-10 weeks old and I have a feeling they are cockerals. I'm new to chickens so I'm...

    Silver Penciled Barred Rock. Pullet or Cockeral?

    So I got these from a guy who swore they were females. They were 4-5 weeks old when I got them and now they are about 9-10 weeks old. They are looking like cockerals to me due to the coloring. I have been looking at pictures of random silver penciled barred rock and the pullets should have a...

    Breeder said they were silkie/silkie mix? Any guess

    I just looked it up and they do look like pekins/cochins! Guess I just got to wait and see. They're actually growing slower than my full breed silkies.

    Breeder said they were silkie/silkie mix? Any guess

    So I bought these from a breeder who said that one of these was a silkie and other was a silkie mix. I'm new to the whole chicken thing so I'm extremely gullible. After some research, I'm thinking more and more that they are not silkies. They both have feathered legs but have light skin and 4...
