    Delaware Genders

    Probably need a couple more photos, but it's likely 2 males Delewares based on their tails. The white birds are all pullets.

    Hampbar hen or roo? 3 weeks old

    I've never heard of it either. "The Hampbar is a rare, auto-sexing, dual-purpose chicken breed developed in Canada during the 1950s by crossing Rhodebar males with New Hampshire females. Known as Barred New Hampshires, they are hardy, active foragers, and reliable layers of brown eggs. They are...

    Any guesses on his breeding

    A Satin Silkie is correct, it's just a designer mix of a Silkie mixed with a Cochin.

    This is a Blue Australorp, right?

    Yes, that's a splash chick. Their catalog has a photo of a different splash colored chick as an example. Every chicken breed can be every color, it's their shape/outline and egg color as an adult that defines the breed. https://www.mthealthy.com/birds/splash-australorp

    9 week old Mottled silkie Roo or hen?

    Looks more like a male pose to me. Ask the breeder directly, they're usually eager to place extra males if you tell them you're interested.

    Lost my favorite chicken 😢

    If you don't have a photo, could you confirm if she had white earlobes, laid a white egg and if she had a single comb type?

    Tractor Supply Bantam Frizzle

    Or feel free to breed and keep them together without hatching the eggs. Double frizzles make for chickens that look naked and molting all the time, definitely kinder to avoid.

    2 month old barnyard mix

    I vote rooster

    Is this a pure RIR rooster?

    Sometimes it's easier to get roosters to accept each other if the 2nd one was raised as a chicken from a broody

    Would you call this EE or OE rooster

    His color is called "Crele"

    Found.Is this a Chicken?

    I see this thread is a bit older and many misidentified it. Looks like a Crele Old English Game Bantam pullet (possibly mixed).

    What breed do you think this pretty boy is? He's a game bird, but any specific breed?

    Agree, he's a Spangled OEGB. As far as quality, he should be bred with a hen who has a larger breast and more fanned tail to improve the next generation. I like his color 😊

    What breed of chicken are they?

    The rooster appears to be a Sexlink/Leghorn cross, the black hen with a poofy head is likely a Polish cross, the hen with black butt and whiteish front is an Easter Egger mix. More photos to predict the other mixes.

    2026 Chicken Wish List

    I'm getting more Mottled Japanese Bantams and Laced Cornish for 2026 I think. Might get more large Fowl Cochin and Faverolles as my girls are getting up there in age...hmm

    Recommendations for a Hatchery?

    I also had a good experience with Ideal Hatchery, but I always get at least like 10% sickly or deformed birds from Cackles. I think the bird aesthetic quality is much better from Cackles, but clearly some Cackles lines are too inbred or something and you'll lose like 30% of a specific variety...
