    Thanks! Shoot. The buff brama is named Millie! The d'uccle is named Peckster (my son named her) she is a funny little thing! So the biggest one is an EE? Will her comb get bigger? I have an EE with a small pea comb. Thanks!

    New Flock members! Breed/sex questions

    Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

    Thank you, Oldhenlikesdogs. We don't have a rooster, (not allowed) so I shouldn't have anything to worry about then!

    Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

    Thank you! Is there a way that you can tell? We got all of them the same day. Though I believe the Feed Mill had both the sex link and the BR prior to the Friday we picked them up. But they all looked to be the same and small size! The EE was the new "shipment" that day if I remember correctly...

    Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

    True, it doesn't matter, I just like know, I'm a bit OCD like that! ;) I posted photos of the red hen, Buttercup. I guess it could be her laying already too.

    Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

    Awesome. Thanks for all the info. I was under the impression that BR only lay about 3x a week. We have only had two eggs but they have been every other day so far.

    Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

    Or am I completely wrong on who is laying? They are 18.5 weeks. The girl on the right is my EE. They girl in back I was told is a sex link standard brown layer (she was yellow as a baby chick). I was expecting light brown eggs from the sex link. Obviously I'm new to all of this.

    Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

    Hi all! So this weekend one of my girls laid her first two eggs! I have 3 pullets and I'm fairly sure which girl is producing already. I was told at the feed store she was cuckoo Marans, but her yellowish/grey legs leads me to believe otherwise. Now I'm not sure becuaused based in the egg color...

    Looking to re-home a rooster in southeastern Wisconsin

    Hi all, I am looking to re-home my nearly 9 week old Brown Leghorn Rooster. He isn't overly aggressive as he has been handled by me and my two children pretty regularly. I would love to keep him, but he is starting to practice his crow, and my village doesn't allow roosters.

    Why dont people want pet roosters?

    Legally we can't have one; village ordinance. Otherwise I would keep ours.
