hello, I have 3 buff orpingtons (potentially mixed) and a random little chick I’d like help with sexing. Orps 2 & 3 are 13 weeks old, chicks 1 & 4 are a couple of weeks younger.
I’m thinking my only girl is 2? What are everyone else’s thoughts?
Hi all, I have babies to move on and would like help with sexing. I am mostly puzzled by my 15wk old Easter eggers. “White” and “Grey” look very red and also have what seem to be spiky roo heads, but no crowing, no saddle feathers from what I can see.
Orpingtons 2 & 3 are definitely 10wks, they...
Hello, my little grey bird is 8 weeks old and I was thinking pullet but her comb makes me suspicious. The two white ones are 12 weeks old and Easter eggers. Am I right in thinking they are both boys and I can cull them? Or should I wait a little longer?
I have 2 buff Orpington chicks, 8 weeks old, that I got as day olds. They are the third pair I have gotten from the same breeder - 3 of the previous turned out to be cockerels and one died before 2 weeks of age. But with all three “attempts”, the chicks have grown really slowly, look really...
I’ve posted about these guys before but now that they’re getting bigger I’d like some updated opinions. I thought the colourful one was a pullet but now I’m thinking absolutely a rooster 😂 grey one I’m hoping pullet, and I’m unsure about the white one. Thoughts?
I’m wanting to move on some pullets and somebody is really interested in this one… I just wanted some agreement that it IS actually a pullet, because I’m just not convinced! She is about 9 weeks old and is an amauracana cross. I’d hate to sell her only for them to end up with a rooster.
Wanting some back up before I move them on, am I right in thinking the first 3 are cockerels? And the 4th is a pullet?
Also, any idea what breed mix the 5th is? She has fluffy cheeks and a rose comb and is quite large.
Hello friends,
I posted about a week ago with my araucana crosses. As time goes on I’m suspicious that the whole batch are boys. I’ve also got a bonus little Australorp who I know is a boy… but who I am in complete denial over. Can someone just tell me there’s no chance he’s a girl so that I can...
Hello! I posted yesterday with some 5 weekers, today I have some 7-8 weekers and they all have me stumped! Only one I’d take a guess at is 4 being a pullet? Number 6 did not want her photo taken so I don’t have a nicer photo of her. They are Araucana crosses
These babies are all around 5 weeks old. I’m fairly certain 1 and 2 are boys but would like to double check before I say goodbye to them. 3 I *think* might also be a boy, thoughts? The rest I’m hopeful are girls. Only one I’d be suspicious of is 5 as he/she has a rose comb so hard to tell! Let...
This little duckling was brought into my work (vet clinic) after being found wandering. Any ideas what breed, sex, age it is? I’ve got a flock of chooks but don’t know anything about ducks!
