    Dark Cornish? Roo or hen?

    I picked up 3 chicks from TSC back in March. They were supposed to be Dark Cornish. They were all 3 black when I got them, now one has started getting speckles, is it a roo? Also, the speckled one has yellow legs, while the other two have dark gray legs. And one more question, are DC's any good...

    Could it be blackhead disease?

    My sick 5 month old roo is still doing poorly, upon doing some more research, I'm wondering if he could have blackhead disease? We live out in an area where there are tons of wild turkeys...this is a Silver spangled Spitz, he had a really white top knot, and now his head is all dark and greasy...

    What's the deal??

    Do you think this is a roo?

    This is about a 2 month old Spangled Russian Orloff, I got 2, they were supposed to be pullets, but this one is quite a bit larger, his hackle feathers look roo to me, he has big legs/thighs and just carries himself like a roo. If he is a roo, anybody have experience with these guys? the last...

    Silver spangled Spitz.

    Looking at older threads on here about SSS's I noticed in all the pics the chicks didn't have the little mohawk like my chicks do, these 2 are about a month or so old, and both have pretty pronounced top knots. They are supposed to be pullets, do you think they are? Also, I got 2 spangled...

    Bad roo, what to do...

    I've had chickens for about 5 months now. Back in Feb. I bought 4 pullets (I thought) well as luck would have it, one turned out to be a rooster ;-( not only a rooster, but a game rooster!
