    Breed of this chick?

    Anyone know what breed this chick is? I suspect it’s a little cockerel (all of my last hatch are looking like cockerels!!). He is 5 weeks old.

    Pekin Rouen mix

    I thought my Rouen/runner male fertilized my Rouen females eggs but I’m pretty sure it was my Pekin. They are pretty cool. Thought I’d share :)

    Is Dick a BCM?

    This guy is 14 weeks old and hatched from a BCM egg (or at least a very dark egg that I was told was a bcm egg). He has no copper on on him. Does it come in later or is he just a Black Marans? He is quite large with feathered feet and gorgeous. I’m trying to figure out which cockerels to keep...

    Are these ‘streamers’?

    These 2 Silkies are 9 weeks old and are very camera shy! Are these cockerels do you think?

    It’s the year of the Rooster at my house, apparently. Could you please confirm my suspicions on the cochins? They are 6 weeks.

    I have learned that I cannot sex EE and Ameraucana, so Im back for help. 1 is a pullet and 2 is a cockerel is my suspicion.

    Gender guess - 10 week old

    Hi! I’ve posted this chicken before and the consensus was pullet. I have a nagging feeling he may just be a late bloomer. Hatched as Ameraucana. Labeled #1. Pretty sure #2 is a pullet— she an EE. I’d love to hear your more educated guesses! They are 10 weeks old.

    Ducklings

    I wanted to share a couple of pics of the babies my Rouen/Pekin girl hatched. The father is either a Pekin or Rouen/Runner. Five have hatched, one more has pipped and another is a slowpoke (with a safety hole so fingers crossed !).

    Broody drama.

    I’ve had had 4 hens go broody at different times this spring. The first one hatched her two adopted silkie eggs at the beginning of May. The next two hatched 6 chicks around Mid-May. They all co-parented and all was well. Then my 4th broody has been sitting on eggs for 2 weeks. One of the...

    Ameraucana help

    Hi again. So I’ve posted this one before and it was a suspected pullet but I keep seeing behaviours that make me think not! Lots of chest bumping a couple for sure cockerels. I’m not seeing much waddle growth but the comb is pinker than the others. Last pic is another that i’m curious about...

    How much do you sell goslings for?

    Hi everyone. I need to sell two of my Pilgrim females and am unsure if I’m crazy on my pricing. They’re 8 weeks old (is this still considered gosling?) and very healthy. I’m in Ontario, Canada and was going to ask $75 for both of them. Does that seem reasonable? I know little goslings are a bit...

    No clue with silkies

    This Silkie is almost 6 weeks. I’ve heard they’re harder to sex, I have no clue what to look for. Any thoughts or should Injust wait for the cock-a-doodle-do?p

    Does yellow dot always mean cockerel?

    I've tried searching the forums for help with this, but I just can't seem to get it. I had two chicks hatch, one was Black Sex Link rooster over Cochin female and the second was the same rooster over a Cream Crested Legbar (busy boy). Both chicks are black with a yellow dot. Would these be sex...

    EE or OE Pullet?

    I bought some mixed eggs and this one is either EE (Cochin/Ameraucana) or OE (BCM/Ameraucana). I’m really hoping she’s a pullet?

    Gender guess please - Updated!

    Hello wise ones. Looking for advice on a few chicks. They are just shy of 6 weeks. #1 has a small comb but seems a touch aggressive. Could 2 be a BCM? Sex? I’m quite sure 3 is a cockerel BCM. I know the pic of the EE with the arrow isn’t great, but flagged it anyway. Any guesses are...

    Ameraucana?

    I bought a mixed bunch of eggs that included BBS Ameraucana, Olive eggers and an EE cochin/ameraucana mix. I’m pretty sure this chick hatched from a blue egg (there were brown and olive as well). I’ve read the traits, it’s legs are black but then kind of speckled bear the foot. Any thoughts on...

    Changing mean girl's behaviour

    A little background: I have a flock of 11 one year old chickens and 10 one year old ducks. They have separate coops and they tolerate each other. We have a big pond, they all free range but are able to keep their distance. I recently hatched 5 goslings and they are now 6 weeks old. They also...

    Broody duck doesn’t get it

    I have a broody rouen. I had moved a couple of her nests into her coop, but kept setting up outside. She finally started going into the chicken coop and has a nest in there. The problem is that she sits on the nest from 8am-1:30pm (like clockwork) and then leaves. She sleeps in her own coop. Is...

    Crushed egg under broody - day 20

    I have a hen sitting on 8 Silkie eggs, day 20 as of about 4pm est. I just checked on her and one has hatched (she looks so confused about where the chirping is coming from) but one egg is pretty crushed. The membrane is still mostly intact and the chick is alive. I checked and there are still...

    Duck stashing eggs

    Hi! I have a duck that I believe is broody. She runs out of the coop in the morning and goes into the bush to lay her egg. I have found her nest and added a few more eggs. I did try leaving a stash of eggs in the coop to try to encourage her to stay in there where she is safe, but she’s very...
