    Is this a rooster or just a black barred rock?

    My chicks are about 1 month old now. I have been noticing that my one chick is almost fully black, yet it is supposed to be a barred rock. I have had them before, and never had a fully black barred rock. Thanks for any input!

    Is this a black chicken egg?

    I found this in my egg box today, I was wondering if it is a chicken egg or a Cayuga egg. My Cayugas are 8-9 months old but have not layed yet, and I thought this would be big for a first egg. Thanks for any advice!
