    Are these really both Ameracauna’s?

    Pretty sure that 3 of the 4 straight run chicks I currently have are cockerels and hubby said I should go get more pullets and I’m not an idiot. I got in the car and left. 💁🏼‍♀️ The minimum at TSC is 4 so I got two RIR and two Ameracauna’s. They had two lighter/gray in the bin and the rest were...

    I think something is wrong!

    I'm afraid my favorite little chickie is sick. She's always been a loner so it's not abnormal for her to be off to herself. we call her Dummy cause she seems super clueless a lot of the time. Tonight, my husband took the chicks out for their free range time and he said she did her usual thing...

    Suggestions for litter/bedding/floor

    My girls (and at least one boy who will be finding a new home) have been in the coop for a few weeks now. I used the leftover bag of shavings from the brooder but am looking for something different when I change it. We have two heights of roosts and right now, all six of them roost together on...

    Cockerel or Pullet? What day you?

    Almost 8 weeks. I keep going back and forth on doing the dna testing. If I can just hold out a few more weeks. 😂 These are from Tractor Supply so project silkies. The more I watch then, the more I think the dark one is a roo. Those little tail feathers seem to be rounding in. Anyone look at...

    Breed and Gender…again

    I’m back now that this baby is a bit older. It’s a bantam and has been a LOT smaller than everyone else and is finally starting to catch up,, although still smallest of my bantams. (2 silkies and 1 black Cochin). Purchased at Atwoods. Last replies thought for sure a Colombian breed. And...

    RIR…pullet?

    I bought this as a pullet. She’s 4 1/2 weeks old and her comb is starting to get bigger and pinker all of the sudden. Just hoping for some confirmation that Jolene is, indeed, looking like the pullet she is supposed to be.

    Silkie question: Satin or no?

    I have two, almost 4 week old silkies. They are both getting feathers that look more feathery than floofy. Is this an indication that they are satins? This is my splash girl. She was all white and it’s so fun to see her color coming out. Also, she’s straight run but I’m just speaking both of my...

    Is s/he a frizzle?

    I’m 85% certain this baby is a roo. 😭 Comb is arched and starting to look more pink and it’s still very fluffy at 3 weeks. It’s an Atwoods straight run bantam and I think a black Cochin. As a new chicken mama, I’m not sure if the feathers come in looking kinda curled at the ends or if it’s a...

    Anyone wanna play a game of “What chicken is this?”

    First time chicken mama here. I’ve got two pullets, but also succumbed to the tiny bantam straight run babies and am wondering what and who they are. I got them on 3/30 so I’m just assuming they were born earlier that week. Which puts them between 2 and 3 weeks. I know two are silkies. Extra...
