Last year I picked a chick out of the fry pan lot thinking I'd like a colorful roo. I didn't have any roosters. The chick turned out to be an EE pullet. She's now my favorite, but still want a roo. Happen to be in a couple towns over today and the farm store had a fry pan lot. I got seven...

I didn't really pay much attention because I assumed it would be a boy coming from the fry bin. Maybe the feed store mixed up some. Wasn't until the squating that really made me stop and think. Thanks for the replys. And I think Shea is an awesome name. Lol. I thank my aunt for picking it.

I bought a chick out of the fry pan bin thinking it was an ee boy. Several months later I'm not sure after he/she has been squating around me alot lately. Anyone have an idea on if I lucked out and got a hen instead?

Thanks! Just wasn't sure on the blue. He doesn't have a real strong white bib. Its slightly lighter but I'm not a duck expert obviously. :-)

Got these today in store. From whelp. Pretty sure the two blacks are Swedish. One may be crested. Wasn't sure on the blue/gray one. After taking away from his buddies he stood up finally. Thinking blue runner?

If you were in Iowa I'd take him! My roo turned out to be a hen...

Thanks everyone. I didn't think they were looking like roosters. One I knew was a hen early. The other looked more roo-ish. But she grew out of it. Out of 4 straight run chicks I got 3 hens. Not bad.

Quote: I hear crowing but wasn't sure who it came from. Must be my only lil buff rooster. They have some green/black in their tail. But not long like most roosters I have seen.

Quote: I guess I kind of lucked out in that case (straight run chicks)...although I really wanted one RIR rooster. lol

Okay...so I thought I had one of each when they were younger. One's comb turned red after only a couple months, while the other stayed pale yellow. They are now 5-6 months and I'm not so sure of what I have....help please!

Quote: The list was in the box with mine... But if you know what you ordered...how many of which ones you ordered....you should be able to narrow down which is the freebie. I didnt order any like my free one so I knew. lol

Quote: White leghorn. I ordered 3. And they put 4 in there. On the packing list they sent with the chicks it had the free rare chick listed = FREE. Then the 3 leghorns I orderd = $however much it was. Under that they listed 1 white leghorn pullet = FREE. So I actually got 2 free. The rare one...

Thanks. Always sad when a chick comes that didnt make it. I figured red cochin...but just didnt think they were rare...

Got my chicks today. One of my barred rocks died. But they threw in an extra leghorn. But my free "rare" chick I'm not sure of. Looks like a red cochin type...but do they give those as "rare"? Any help please?

I have a buff cochrin roo that I don't need. He's around 8 weeks and is friendly. Would trade for a RIR roo or New Hamp roo. Or maybe something else? I'm in SW Iowa, close to Omaha NE...MO and KS borders also. [email protected]

Thank you. Your reply made sense to this newbie!

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has crossed RIR with a white leghorn hen? Will the chicks be sex linked? Are there any crosses on Australorps that get six linked chicks? I have a few chicks, going to order some more. I'm thinking of keeping them mostly for laying but would also like to hatch...
