    6 wk old chick gender help (Marans, Silkie, Frizzle Cochin)

    Now that "Agnes" is about 7 mo old, I'm curious to see what you guys think about gender. "She" has not crowed or even thought about getting in a nesting box. So I suppose it could still go either way... and I'm obviously the last person to guess a gender, LOL.

    Yep, #2 started crowing two days after #1 left. And the bottom of the feet are a much lighter color. Maybe peach?? I'm kinda color blind, lol

    Another update... I think my Marans may actually be Black Australorps, lol. #1 roo became quite sexually agressive and killed one of my hens. He has been rehomed. #2, that I naively tgought/hoped was a Pullet, has now started to crow, lol. The bantam Cochin is definitely a roo. BUT I still...

    Well, Marans #1 is definitely a roo... Crowing for several weeks and has started to be quite "rapey"... Marans #2 I believe is a pullet because "she" hasn't done any of this at this point. Her saddle feathers are actually more rounded than the roo in person and the roo has a MUCH larger and...

    6 wk old chick gender help (Marans, Silkie, Frizzle Cochin)

    Marans #1 and the Frizzle Cochin #3 are my favorites and have the BEST personalities, so I really hope one of them is a pullet and I don't have to choose between them :/ The comb on Marans #2 is quite a bit more red than #1, so I'm still hopeful... Unfortunately, I only have enough room for 1 roo.

    6 wk old chick gender help (Marans, Silkie, Frizzle Cochin)

    I unexpectedly took in ailing day old chicks after TCS got a shipment in with very few survivors due to the cold weather. These are my first chickens and given the circumstances I had no idea what I was getting. Of my survivors I believe I have a Bantam Frizzle Cochin, a Bantam Silkie, and...

    Please help identify duckling breed

    My oldest son found this little cutie in the middle of a busy road with no other ducks in sight. He diverted traffic and searched the area for any sign of mama or others. He scooped it up and brought it home. Any idea what we have here? Could be wild, but I've heard of a few people selling duck...
