    Gender of chicks please

    Hi, I'd say that you have a pullet in pictures 8-12... There's even a chance that pics 13-16 are of a pullet, but those red combs and wattles are worrying indeed. I have a Cochin pullet that looked like this at five weeks of age, she's a very fine hen now...

    Sex these two mixed chicks

    Hi. Can you tell me if these two mixed chicks are cockerels or pullets? The bigger one, with spots on the chest is around six weeks old and kinda looks like a pullet to me, even though in its first three weeks of life it looked like a cockerel. I think it's a mix between light brahma X silver...

    Birchen Marans Thread

    It seems that the rooster is half silver- half black copper.

    Birchen Marans Thread

    Hello, Not sure if this 11 months rooster of mine is a Birchen Marans or maybe a cross? Perhaps some of you are much more knowledgeable on the subject. The color is not silvery, is more yellowish and it's I think not widespread enough. What do you think? Is this a Marans or something...

    New chicken owner not sure the breed

    Hi. I'm thinking blue Australorp or maybe even blue Orpington (since they are kinda fluffy). But they're very small, it's very hard to tell a breed at this stage. In a month or so things might get clearer, but event then it will be hard to tell. In a couple of months, when their feet will have a...

    Any idea what these two roosters are?

    Hi, These two roosters are 11 months old. Got them from someone not very knowledgeable on chicken breeds. Do you have any idea about what breed they might be? Especially the black one. The black one looks like a Marans, but it has this silvery-yellow leakage and the one with white I suspect is a...

    Might this be Birichen Marans?

    This is how it looks two weeks later. It hatched around May 5-th.

    Might this be Birichen Marans?

    I don't think this particular bird has any Cochin blood. From the start it was very different compared to the other Cochins I have. More precocious, tall, scrawny, flighty, alpha personality. At first I thought it was some kind of hybrid between Australorp and some black sex link (like Moravia...

    Might this be Birichen Marans?

    Yeah, it's not even four months old and the gray color started to show only in the last three weeks, it was all black till then. We'll see.

    Might this be Birichen Marans?

    The soles are whitish, definitely not yellow.

    Might this be Birichen Marans?

    Hi, I have this cockerel. It's about 16-17 weeks old. Pretty tall, compared to the other cochin cockerels with which it hatched alongside. I was wondering if it might be a Birchen Marans. I got it from someone who was not knowledgeable, so I have no background whatsoever on its breed, origin...

    Cochin and Wyandote Cross

    Thank you. Very interesting. And does the comb look like an incipient walnut or a rose? Or is it too undeveloped and the picture too unclear to determine? Until this fella, all my chicken were either with pea comb or with single comb, so I didn't have the chance to see other examples. I've...

    Cochin and Wyandote Cross

    Hi, I have this 11 weeks rooster. I'm thinking it's a silver laced / white columbian mix between a Cochin and a Wyandotte. I have other various mixes between different colors of cochins and that's why I suspect it's partially a cochin. Or maybe Brahma and Wyandotte. I'm not sure what kind of...

    What sort of standard Cochin is this

    Hi, I have this 10 weeks cockerel and I suspect it is a mix between different colors of Cochins. It has very unusual coloring and I was curious if any of you know which kinds of Cochin mix would give these particular colors. The yellow on the chest is very brownish, no red component in it, thus...

    Standard Cochin Pullet or Cockerel?

    Hi. I'm updating with some new pics from today. I'm almost sure it's a pullet now. She also acts like one now, always avoiding the aggressive cockerels. I'm having another purebreed black brahma pullet and EIGHT cockerels and the two pullets kinda self-isolated from the cockerels. All are about...

    Standard Cochin Pullet or Cockerel?

    Hi, I got some gold laced/buff/partridge mix standard Cochin chicks. The're five weeks now. One is obviously a cockerel, but I'm not sure about the more feathered one. Do you think it's a pullet? I suspect it's also a cockerel that just happens to be more feathered at this age.

    Australorps breed Thread

    Hi, Should Australorp hens have "hairy" faces? Like my hen from the first and second pictures (the other black hen from the second picture is a black egglaying hybrid, NOT an Australorp)? Also, the hen is very big. Almost as big as a Brahma. P.S. The rooster is an Australorp X Brahma cross.

    Hello

    Below are some pictures of part of my flock. What do you think? In the last picture, the smaller hen is actually a black egglaying hybrid, not an Australorp. The larger hen is an Australorp. Is the hybrid rooster larger than an average Australorp rooster?
