Hi all, looking for some opinions on my chicks once again haha. I received an order of Light Sussex chicks 4 weeks ago and now that they’re feathering in I’m seeing some worrying colourations :/ It’s important to me that these will breed true as they’re replacing my existing purebred flock which...
Well it's that time of year again, I hatched some breeds I'm less familiar with so I wanted to get some second opinions! Thanks in advance!

I recently hatched a mix of eggs from a local breeder and this chick has me a little confused, the known breeds and crosses are:
F2 Legbar x Silver Penciled Plymouth Rock
F1 Legbar x SP Rock cross rooster
There are other chicks with very clear headspots that I know are roosters due to the...
Hi all, I was looking for some second opinions since it's always been super helpful in the past, this group was hatched on April 26 roughly and all but one are Ameraucana x Barred Rock so theoretically they should be easy to sex but I still have my doubts 😅 their dad was a late bloomer which...
Hi everyone, hoping to get some opinions on the bunch of roughly 10-12 week olds I picked up a couple weeks ago. Fairly certain I got a 50/50 split but I know with this mix it's a guessing game, so let's have some fun :)

Hi all! Just as a bit of context I’ve noticed my big 4 year old EE rooster having an odd sounding crow for a while now (a big inhale at the end) but with no other issues I didn’t think anything of it, then yesterday while he was being handled to get treated for some lice which I’ve done a couple...
He’s 4 years old now. All I really know about him is that he came from an Ameraucana roo and hatched from a brown egg, possibly Orpington or barred rock? So I’m curious what other people think :) also would love to know what his colouring is, or if he’d pass on his colour/blue egg gene. Thanks!
Hello all! Hoping to get some opinions on the 11 week/2.5 month old chickens we hatched this past May. :) They came from a "barnyard mix" from an Ameraucana or EE roo with a mix of barred rock/orpington/EE/naked neck hens. Feel free to point out their proper colours too. Thanks!
