    Good Laced Polish Cockerel?

    I’ve been raising a bunch of chicks for my mom, and I told her I would keep any boys since she’s terrified of them, lol. This Gold Laced Polish (bearded) is throwing me off. Some days I’m certain it’s a Cockerel, other days I think it’s just wishful thinking, hoping it’s a Pullet for my mom’s...

    Swelling Above Pullet’s Eye

    My sweet Kiwi appears to have an abscess over her eye. I was watching her and her sister Muffin all day today (thinking they may be turning cockerel on me) and I noticed later on that Kiwi has some sort of swelling that was not there earlier. It’s soft, almost pimple like. She hated me holding...

    Pyncheon?

    Last February I posted about Flappy (here). It was suggested that she was a Pyncheon. Today as I was watching the flock I decided to do some sleuthing as to what color eggs she would lay, when I saw that in the Pyncheon description it stated that they come in Mille Fleur and breeders are working...

    Silkie Sexing hatched 03/19

    I’ve had my suspicions about sweet Sesame for a while. I know it’s probably a bit too early, but that comb and those wattles... If he’s a he, I totally intend on keeping him. Anyway, I present Sesame for your viewing pleasure:

    Cocci I’m Vaccinated 2 week olds

    I lost a 2 week old chick yesterday. When watching the remaining 16 chicks in the brooder I noted what looked like a blood soaked shaving. Today I saw lots of bloody stools in the brooder. I believe we have Cocci, though they were vaccinated. Should I treat with Corid?

    Sapphire Oliver Eggers...?

    Two weeks ago I received my order of Hatchery Choice Rares from Hoover’s. These three blues I feel like are Hoover’s Sapphire Olive Eggers, given the options of what they could be. Dark Blue does not have a yellow spot on the top of her head like Light or Medium. Dark Blue has more of a dark...

    Buff and Light Brahma Gender

    Bought these chicks as a straight run at Rural King in March, the person helping me was all like “oh you can tell them sex by their combs .” I internally rolled my eyes and let her go about picking 4 “pullets”. Anyway, I have my strong suspicions. Tangy was feeling shy, but she’s also a buff...

    ~10+ Week Old Chicks

    I have 3 chicks with a sneaking suspicion they’re oops boys. The Wyandotte’s presented with pink wattles by 6 weeks, and are rather standoffish. The Easter Egger does not have any wattles, the comb only *just* started showing color. S/he was/is massive in size compared to the other chicks and...

    Little Mystery Chick

    At Rural King today eyeing the chicks, ended up getting a few when I saw this little one mixed in with the Barred Rocks and Delawares. I couldn’t just leave it, so it’s home with me and dubbed “Bacon”. But what is s/he?! Single comb, legs look like they may color, brown face, barred...

    More TSC. Banties

    I purchase 7 assorted banties from TSC and i’ve been googling and staring at so many chick images my eyes are crossing. I’m guessing the light ones may be a Black Tail White Japanese and a Buff Cochin Bantam. The other two (of which I have 5) are all feather shanked. No beard, but very auburn...

    I know that Silkies are notoriously hard to figure out gender, but this one is making me feel like he’ll be easy .

    Cockerel starting to charge children

    I have a Spitzhauben cockerel (hatched in March), who has recently taken to charging. First it was me, I quickly turned around and stomped at him a few yards. He did it again to my husband last night, who chased him around the backyard yelling at him. But today, when my 3 1/2 year old son was...

    TS Assorted Bantam

    Hi everyone! I picked up 6 assorted bantams from TS this morning. I'm sure of two of the breeds I purchased, but this little one has me confused. I assume a Cochin of some variety, but not doing well with surprises, I can't wait until they feather out :rolleyes:. TIA
