5 week old Bantam Cochin- supposed to be a girl, but the slow feathering and pink wattle/comb base is telling me roo. Is there still a chance for a pullet? Thanks!
I got her from feed store last week- they get their chicks from Privett Hatchery. She's about 1 1/2 week old, but still all fuzz. My RIR chick is double her size and has the feathers already (same age). Is this just a slow developer? Is there anything I can do? Thanks!
I replaced my roos with new babies. There was a bin of mixed chicks at Ace that came from Privette Hatchery. I thought it was some type of Maran b/c of the feathered feet, but Ace said they didn't order black marans. What breed is she? I'm just hoping for dark brown eggs. .
Chickens are now 3 months old- I heard crowing today but not sure from which one. Breeder thought these were girls bc they were small at 10 weeks old. Last post here BYC thought white OE was a girl at 9 wks. Everyone said BCM was a roo. BCM has huge red comb but breeder said her hens had big...
I posted before and everyone agreed (including myself) that my Cookie was a roo at 9 wks old b/c of large comb and wattle. Well now she is about 11 weeks old, and still has large comb but it's more on the yellow side. She also doesn't have any Red/copper patches on her wings, just a few on chest...
I posted pics on this Olive Egger before and they said it was a pullet based on small comb. I wanna believe she's a girl, but I see roo features too, so I'm totally confused. He was the biggest (though now I learned OE are usually bigger), very slow to feather, he fights with the other roo and...
My first time to raise chickens and I ended up with 3 roos out of 4. I'm trying it again, supposedly this little Barred Rock is a girl. I got her from my local Ace Hardware store and they are sexed from Privett Hatchery. She's about 2 weeks old. What do u think?
I thought it was still too early to say. I thought she was a pullet all along b/c her comb stayed yellow for awhile, but now it's pink. BCM is 9 weeks old. Is it a roo? I can't keep roosters. Thank u! [/IMG][/IMG]
I have a 2 month old Olive Egger (the white one). I'm pretty sure it's a roo, but why doesn't it have a comb? It was the biggest chick, slow to feather, and the boss of the group. He has the neck feathers too. He does the chest bump fight with my Isbar (gray one with orange chest) Is she a roo...
I'm a new chicken mama. I have 4 babies- about 2 months old now. I'm in a HOA so I can't have too many. I can't wait to see eggs this fall! I have a Olive Egger (which I'm suspecting is a roo and can't keep), an Americauna, BCM, and Isbar (which is also acting like a roo ) I hope to learn all I...
