I hatched out 5 chicks in December and I think these three are 2 pulles and one roo. I think Bubba is my roo.
This is Chanel, she's 7 weeks. She has a Barred Rock mama and a white EE daddy.
This is Pearl, 7 weeks 1 day. Same mama and daddy I think.
Pearl and Bubba, also 7 weeks 1...
I had 8 eggs in the incubator and due to a bulb blowing I ended up with temps at 72 for an unknown length of time. Two eggs have hatched, the smaller ones, one about 38 hours ago and another about 26 hours ago. One egg might be rocking a little but I'm not sure. The others looked good when...
I got this EE and of course we were told he's an Americauna pullet but when I posted his pics in August the consensus was roo. The first pic is from August 17 and I don't know his age then but I guessed about 8-10 weeks. The second set of pics is from today. No crowing, no squatting, no eggs...
I found this egg today in our baby coop. The big girls can get in there too though. My son saw our Comet in the baby coop today and both she and her bff were roosting in the baby coop which is weird. As far as I know my Comet isn't laying but her comb and wattles are much bigger and more red...
I just got this little Turken two weeks ago. She's very chill and eats and drinks fine. She's social but does seem a little sleepy. Of course it's very hot here so they're all a little sleepy. She has these sores on her neck, comb and eyes. I don't know if she's being pecked or getting sun...
When I bought this sweet girl I was told she was a Polish. She has black skin, five toes and feathered feet though. I've been thinking she might be a Polish/Silkie mix. I'm also really hoping she's a girl. What do you all think?

I got several "pullets" recently, almost laying age was what I was told. I've had them 2 weeks and they are supposed to be Barred Rocks. One for sure is not, she has tufts of feathers at her cheeks, but I think our Rainbow may be a boy. Thank you so much for your help.
From the side...
Hi there. I'm new here and new to chickens. I got five hens about 2 weeks ago and I was told they were all Barred Rocks. One is plain white so definitely not a Barred Rock and she seems to small to be a Plymouth Rock. Now I'm worried I might have some boys too. I also got two more, younger...
Hi, I'm Shelly. I'm brand new to owning chickens and to the site. I've lurked a little and figured I should join. We just got our first chickens last Thursday. We got four Barred Rocks and on White Leghorn. I'm interested in an Ameraucana too. I can't believe how much fun we're having and...
