About 6 weeks old. Was told the chick on the left came from a sebright mom and serama dad.
Boy or girl?
The blue chick I think was an old English. We’re assuming rooster with a comb like that…?
Could anyone give me tips on sexing seramas also? What about mixed breeds like these?
Curious if others have seen their chickens develop feathers of a different color? Our Hershey girl is about a year old and has basically all brown feathers until these new cool looking grey-white feathers. She is a year old.

We have 5 hens between 17 months-2 years old. 4 mixes and one Asian Black. We normally get 2-3 eggs daily. In the spring sometimes we would get 4 eggs daily, but never 5.
We’ve come to the conclusion that our Goldie (now known as The Golden Child) just doesn’t pull her...
I’ve read to put a plastic bottle filled with salt water in your waterer to keep it from freezing. We did this to the plastic 5 gallon hanging waterer. The water freezes in the shallow area where they drink from so we have to keep going outside and breaking it up. Now we’re using the same trick...
We bought a small coop from tractor supply with the intentions of building our own down the road. Basically if we enjoyed having chickens, then we would build them a more permanent one.
Eight months of chicken keeping and we were ready to build the coop of our chickens’ dreams.

I just wanted to share my success (so far) with washable nesting pads. I’ve been using them for 4 months now. I bought them on amazon- a pack of 6 was $27. Very easy to clean with a spray hose and we have yet to have a broken egg! I honestly didn’t think it would be enough “cushion.”

Hello everyone!
We were told Betty was a female Easter Egger. Is she?
Also, we’ve had her 2 months and the past few weeks she has started pecking us. A LOT! No other chicken has ever done this like she is. I mean pecking our legs, our face if we’re holding her, it’s crazy! Guess that’s why...
We’re hoping she’s a girl so we can keep her, but can anyone tell us for sure? I’m not sure how old she is, but was told she was a Bantam Easter Egger.
