Thank yall. I Did Start A Thread But Never Got A Final ANswer. The Mothers Were White Rock And Partridge Rock And The Father Is Partridge Rock. They Arent Pure Bred. Thank U Again. Im Going To Chech Wing Feathers Today If The Broody Mom Can Manage Not To Bite My Hand Off. But Some Have The Spot...
SO what does it mean when you all say sexlink? Can you get a sexlink from any breed of chicken? I am currently trying to decide if what we have are barred rock or sexlink
ANd there is one black chick that I saw with a spot on the head so I was thinking maybe that would be the one to end up with some barring? And I am going over there tomorrow to see if we can look at the wings and determine sex but the surrogate mother is soooo broody shes like a ninja chicken...
Yea I'm not sure but I am thinking that one of the whites have given us a brown chicken. We want to breed these same chickens again and I was trying to figure this all out so we know which ones to hatch from which hen lol. This has all been great info (a little confusing) but great nonetheless...
yes he's very pretty and that's why we kept him. So I guess he's really not true to breed standard. we knew he wasn't bc he came from tractor supply lol
so would the white rocks have possibly given me the black chicks and my partridge given me the brown ones? I know that my brown bird only had 2 eggs in there and my white rocker were the rest. So there is one white that has given me a brown chick. So do you think all the blacks are going to...
I'm not sure either. And I noticed that there are 3 black chicks and one of them has the spot on the head and the others do not. But I think I read somewhere that in order to get a partridge rock you have to mate with a barred rock in order to get the partridge so maybe the partridge girl that...
These chicks came from a Partridge rock rooster and partridge rock and white rock hens. These are not to breed standards my any means but wanted some help on these and to see what breeds they could be. I think the brown ones look like partridge rocks maybe but the black ones have me stumped...
Thanks. He doesn't mess with the other hen of his same breed. For some reason he doesn't like the white ones....I think I have a racist bird haha. But I really want to try and work with him but if he keeps hurting them then I will definitely rehome him. This is the first injury and the...
This is our 4 month old Partridge Plymouth Rock Rooster "Daddy". He can be a jerk most of the time!
This is our 4 month old hen Plymouth Parttridge Rock "Dorito" She's the smallest one we have!
This is our 4 month old Plymouth Partridge Rock Rooster "Daddy". We think he's a good looking guy even though he's a jerk most of the time! We are new to chickens and learning along the way!
I have 5 hens and one Roo. They are all almost 4 months old. We have a huge coop for them and an gigantic run. We let them out when we are out there with them since our neighbors don't like to put their dogs up and we have lots of coyotes out here too. They have plenty of room and I throw...
My Roo looks like this but not this bad. I think he has been molting and getting new feathers in as he is only 4 months old. I have 6 altogether but he is my only roo and the only one doing that. So I just assumed it was bc he has so many more feathers coming in over the other chickens
...He did it twice in one day and the second time he did it I grabbed him by the neck and pinned him to the ground. I didn't know what to do but he ****** me off lol. Then I came in a got to researching. We have a 4 yr old son and I don't want a mean rooster. We thought we had all hens but...
They actually stay pretty clean in the coop itself. We have pine shavings in there. We also have a huge 8ft run that we built onto the coop so they sat outside most of the time. We hose the ground out there too and keep the poop washed away. And they do walk in it sometimes which is...
