    Pullet or Cockerel?

    The pictures I posted earlier were talking yesterday. Here are additional pictures I just took tonight. I think his comb and waddles are even more red than they were last night? His wings also look different than my other chicks. The others have more rows of feathers. I read this is not a...

    Pullet or Cockerel?

    Yes it has a straight comb. I was also thinking it is a SLW however the comb is not right for the breed. I have had suspicions that it is a cockerel even before it’s comb and waddles stated to turn red by its behavior. He is also very squirmy and won’t calm down when I hold him. I would like to...

    Pullet or Cockerel?

    It was in the mixed pullet bin at my local feed store and they did not know the breed. I am guessing silver laced Wyandotte also, but the comb is not right for the breed so that kind threw me off.

    Chest and neck feather picking

    Thank you this is very helpful! I have some starter since I have chicks too so I will add some to their food. Do you think I should mix it with the layer crumbles or just switch them entirely to grower or starter? They have a dish of oysters shells. I have thoroughly checked for parasites and...

    Chest and neck feather picking

    Can anyone tell me some reasons why chickens pick there own feathers out of their neck and chest? I have a 2 year old red sex link that has been doing this for the last 6 month. Recently she even had new feathers coming in but picked them out too. She is not broody and never has been. I don’t...

    What is this chick?

    These are my two that are supposed to be Ameraucanas. The first 3 are pumpkin. I do not see signs of a beard or muffs maybe she will just be clean faced? Or tuffs which would rule out Araucana I think? The 4 -7 is freckles I see signed of a beard and muffs and she has greenish legs. 8-11 photos...

    What is this chick?

    I’m not sure yet? They are only a week old. The sign on the cage said they were Araucanas but the worker at the feed store said they were Ameraucanas. I only paid $4.25 for each of them so I guessed they are more than like not pure bred and are Easter Eggers, but I really don’t know? I will...
