Hi all! Hatched my first two babies ever and they were labeled as Isabelle Orpingtons. Very cute yellow fluffy chicks, however I’m noticing one has yellow feet and the other kind of greenish/ bluish/yellow ? If they are the same breed shouldn’t they have the same color feet? Do they change as...
Hi there! Purchased this little cutie back in September as a speckled Sussex, I have one other that is 7 months old. As I’m watching this little one develop she’s looking a bit different from my other girl, coloring and feather pattern. I came across a pic of a jubilee and I see more resemblance...
First batch of BCM babies. 3 weeks old, all purchased as pullets. They all seem
Very similar at this point, I just noticed they have different colored feet and combs. Some black and pink. Probably too soon to tell. I was told to check wings and if short and long most likely a pullet, I see short...
Checking again on gender of my Welsummers. The general consensus was that one of the three was a Roo due to a larger comb early on, now they are about 10-11 weeks and they all look the same to me. Anything screaming Roo to you guys?? The single pics of are the one in question. I posted a pic...
I shared last month on here how I brought home a very distraught, co-dependent little chicken that was chirping in distress and so I had to bring him home. All his bin mates were purchased and he was left behind. He was a scruffy little fellow about 4-6 weeks. He didn’t look like any of the...
Hi y’all. 👋🏼 Just received my first shipment of baby chicks via mail! They all arrived safe and sound and adorable!! Anybody familiar with Partridge Olive Eggers? If so would love to see pics. I ordered Olive eggers, BCM’s, Super Blue Eggers and Partridge Olive Eggers. Soooo excited to watch...
Hi there. Checking back in about my little speckled Sussex Snickers. Hoping she’s a pullet although there was more leaning towards Roo. Any thoughts or predictions? Thank you so much for any input!
This sweet chick was sold as a black Australorp, I purchased two at the same time and one is clearly blacker, this one seems to be grey? Or is this what black Australorps look like around 4 weeks? New to Australorp chicks♥️🐥 I hope she’s a she?!
Hi there, I picked up this sad little fella at the local feed store yesterday. Had not intended on purchasing chicks however while checking out I couldn’t ignore the distressed chirping from the back of the store. Apparently someone had just bought all the chicks in the bin and left this one...
I have two speckled Sussex chicks. One is significantly lighter than the other. Does anyone know if this determines their coloring as they get older? Or indicate sex? They’re only like 2 1/2- 3 weeks old. I’m just curious if anyone is familiar with this breed and knows anything about coloring...
I have three Welsummers I posted yesterday about them and now have recent pics to show the difference, not only in color(one seems slightly darker in color) and one definitely seems to have a more prominent pinker comb already. However I do not see black on any of their chests which I’ve heard...
I’m confused. After some research I’m noticing brown leghorn and Welsummers look almost identical. I purchased three Welsummers last month for the dark brown eggs and now I’m questioning whether they’re brown leghorns or in fact Welsummers 😬🤞🏼 Any distinct differences that I can look for...
Hi guys anybody able to help identify the gender of my Wyandotte’s? They’re about 8 weeks old now. Any signs I can look for? None of them really stand apart from each other. All pretty similar. Thanks for your help in advance!
Hi! I am a proud chicken mama of about 30 chickens here in Northern California. Between the heat waves and the terrible air quality due to wildfires it’s been a rough few weeks. I have six-6 year old hens, seven-5 month olds, and 17 more ranging in age between 2 and & weeks. Love my chickens...
