    Roosters or Hens...Help!

    Aloha, What do you think about this last round of chicks? Boy or girl? Dad is a game mix. There are multiple purebreed moms. They are 10-11 weeks old. #1: white leghorn mom #2: white leghorn mom #3: no idea...maybe one of the white leghorns (this one is my absolute favorite!) #4: this...

    10 week old chicks--Boy or Girl?

    Hello, Could you all help us determine if these new chicks are keepers or not? Dad is a game mix and various moms: #1--I think this one was from our little bantam mom, maybe a Welsummer #2--we call this one's mom a black leghorn, but never have been sure about that. She's all black. #3--not...

    Yes, totally possible on the EE/Ameraucana (which is what they told me when I bought them) instead of a RIR. ahhhh all the roos......

    More Mixed Breed Chicks--Cockerel or Pullet Please?

    Mix Breed Chicks--10 weeks--any guesses??

    Thanks everyone! When will the roos start to crow? When do spurs develope? I guess that's the first "sure" way?

    Help this newly hatched chicken owner out!!

    Just to compare, your EE's look like what were called Ameraucana chicks when we bought them. They all lay pale blue eggs. All cuties!

    Our lovely boy--who the heck is he?

    Thanks, everybody. This is really helpful. He's regular sized, BTW. If anyone wants to take a look at his offspring and give some guesses on gender, I'd love it! Just posted some pics.

    Mix Breed Chicks--10 weeks--any guesses??

    Male or female...that is the question.... Here is round #1 of pics from my new batch of chicks, now 10 weeks. The male is a mix himself (BYC posters think he's a game/EE mix). I'm not sure on all of the chicks' moms, but... #1 is Ameraucana mom #2 is a Leghorn mom #3 is a Rhode Island Red mom...

    Our lovely boy--who the heck is he?

    Hi all! Can someone help me figure out what breed our lovely rooster is? We found him in the forest behind our house (here in Hawaii) and he jumped in our coop and has called it home. He's great and is now the father to many of our little chicks. We're thinking he's an Ameraucana...

    Broody hen has chicks! NOW WHAT?

    Thanks everybody! Little chicks are doing fine. I ended up moving the nest (very carefully!) out of the 5 gallon bucket and into a separate hen house. I knew the chicks couldn't eat or drink anything in the bucket with the hen, so now they are grabbing food out of little dishes and running...

    Broody hen has chicks! NOW WHAT?

    If you leave them in, how do the chicks get the right food? We feed new chicks the medicated chick feed. They're in a coop and don't free range.

    When to lift out new hatchlings ?

    I was told to not take them out until they are completely dry. That is only a few hours. I know you can leave them in for a while, but not longer than two days. My big problem with leaving them for very long at all was that they bumped and rolled by eggs in "lockdown" and drowned them (at...

    Broody hen has chicks! NOW WHAT?

    I just checked my little Bantam hen today, as it's day 21 and low and behold there was one little chick nice and dry under her and another hatching as I looked! So exciting! AND HILARIOUS as none of the eggs seem to be hers...the two little peeps were solid black and came out of dark brown...
