    Which is which

    These are my welsh harlequin ducklings. I was told they are male and female. At this age I can't tell which is which. Any help is appreciated.

    What am I?

    This is Eleanor, a cute little bantam hen that I've had for a couple of years. I was told Silver leghorn bantam, but she doesn't have the white earlobes. I'm assuming that she's a cross. She lays pretty little cream/light peach colored eggs. Very broody....LOL Any ideas would be...

    Do I need grit?

    My girls have a large dirt run. In addition, they are occasionally let out to free range in the wooded area behind our house. Do I still need to provide grit for them?

    Silver Leghorn bantam?

    Hi there! I just got this sweet little gal from a coworker who says that it's a Silver Leghorn bantam. However, she looks more brown to me. Is it possible she's a cross? She lays beautiful creamy pale peach eggs. It's not all that important to me, I'm just curious. Any ideas would be...

    Hello! Greetings from Aberdeen, Washington.

    A little about me: (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? We had chickens when I was growing up, And I loved them. Now that I'm grown and have a family of my own, I had been wanting to have them again, but my husband was reluctant. He finally caved, and we now have a...
