    Breed or gender ?- 11 weeks

    Wondering if anyone can identify these chickens. May be mixed bread. I love the whitish brownish one, and the brown/gray one looks like my Americaunas, but they don't have gray and they have feathers on their face. Thanks for your input!

    What could the predator be?

    A couple of weeks ago, something knocked one side of my a-frame coop and got a chicken. Since then I have re-evaluated my security and everything is secured with either a spring loaded latch or a carabiner. When I looked out this morning, I could tell their water had been knocked over during...

    Black Orpington - he or she?

    I have 4, 16 week old black Orpington. They are my favorite so far because they are not only gorgeous, but very docile birds. I have one that has developed comb and wattles much faster than the other girls, so I've been wondering about him/her. Yesterday, he/she got spooked and ran to the...

    I have a silkie who went broody a couple of weeks ago, so I got a few fertile eggs from a friend and she's been sitting on them for about a week and a half.

    Easter Egger - What Gender?

    I'm new to chickens, but have read through a lot of posts. Still trying to figure out what sex this chick is. I got him from someone who ordered 50 female chicks. We picked 4. It's my understanding that even sexed from the hatchery, there is a 10% error rate. This chick just seems bigger...
