Oh Boy is this going to be a long thread start. Anyways I need help IDing Males in the breeds that was listed in the Title. All but the Rhodes were Hatchery purchased. In males of these breeds we purchased 1 Buff Brahma (BB) and 1 Ancona (A). The Rhode Island Reds (RIR) were home breed and...
I looked at the hatchery again. These are the only pure white breeds they have
White Rock
White Leghorn
Frost White Legbar
White Maran
If this helps with the shank color for Identifcation. @minihorse927
So these are a couple of 5 week old chicks that I got that I do not know the breed of. I have some thoughts on what the breeds could possibly be because of where we got the chicks from
I think this could be a White Leghorn, a Frost White Legbar, or a White Rock. She was very calm though when we...
So, I have more birds of a breed from this confusing breed duo. Well.. They are actually from my family member's flock. Not mine. They also have a Roo from this breed. I was curious because they said that if I wanted to breed their birds that I could. If they are Ameraucana I might be more...
So... We are questioning a Black Australorp at about 18 weeks and need to know for certain by end of week. This is One Australorp.
Here are some photos.
Name: Snow White
Breed: White Leghorn
Age: 5 months
Info: Skittish, Honestly very White considering that she is a Free Range bird, named by my younger sister.
Name: Trump
Breed: Buff Orpington
Age: 1 year and 3 months
Info: Head Rooster, Very Protective of His Females, Has a show record...
Orpingtons tend to be broody. I looked this up and Orpingtons are the 3rd Broodiest birds followed by Brahmas. and Lead by Silkies and Cochins
. One of the ways to break a Broody is moving her in daylight. We have one Buff that seems to almost always be broody. Let's just say that hen will get...
I have a Large custom Coop. We use Corn Cob bedding because it is easy to sweep up. (still a lot of work though considering the size.) We use that bedding in the cages at our Fair as well. Crushed Corn cobs.
This Australorp again was in my original post asking about genders. Again not completely answered. This one took about 2 months to feather out and is still growing out its tail. It also has huge shanks compared to the others of its breed in my flock. The reason for me asking is because we are...
My question on the 1st thread never got completely answered. So I have more pics of my 3 Brahmas. I also put down some numbers so you and I know the difference. Again about 3 1/2 months old (Could be younger about 3 months not completely certain)
Bird 1
Bird 2
Bird 3 (It...
It, unfortunately for you, is a quite cockerel. I have Roosters of the Buff Orpington Breed and the combs and Tail feather match theirs in shape and size back when they were Cockerals. Another thing I can tell you is that it is quiet a good looking Roo. Kinda looks like a younger version of my...

Here is a site you might find interesting. If you followed all of the conditions for your area, they really don't have a fight and are just trying to get money out of you for no reason. Where I live we...
We only have this one chicken. I know it is either an Ameraucana or an Easter Egger. But that is about it. If you need more photos I can go catch her again to take more.
Okay, so my family was trying to figure out if we still had any male Brahmas and if some of our Australorps are male. The Brahmas were orders 3 male, and 7 female and a cat ate 3 of them while young babies and we think a hawk got 2 of them while the 5 (We had some that didn't make it at the...
