I received this chicken from a friend's son who hatched in class. I believe it to be a barred rock, but not too sure. Originally everyone said pullet, but that was at 4 weeks. Here the chick is now at 3 months. Any thoughts?
Thank you. At what age do you know for sure it is a roo? I believe we have 2 and I realize that's not a good thing with only 3 hens. So I'm wondering when do I need to rehome? Will they start fighting around a certain age? Is there a chance it could be a hen or is it pretty clear this is a rooster?
Here is another one I have. Same age. (Almost 4 weeks) much taller. Feathers on black legs and super duper sweet. No clue what this one is. Any help is appreciated
It is not. I have 2 others I am unsure on breed. I will post pictures. They look different from this one. They were hatched at school and a friends son gave them to us. I'll get pics uploaded this afternoon.
Hi! We have 3 chicks that are 3 weeks old. We got them from a friend whose son hatched in class. We would like to get a couple more. Our local feed store has some that are 2 weeks. Is it possible to safely integrate them together with the week difference??
Thank you! One thing I have noticed is that their wings are changing colors. 2 seem to be getting stripes. Is that normal? I thought if they were barred they would show stripes right away?
