    Cockerel or hen?

    Both are Silver Laced Barnevelder x White Rock. Based on hackle feathers. They are 6 weeks old now.

    Help with breed identification. Who is mom?

    I have 10 new chicks. Rooster was silver double laced barnevelder. I have two silver double laced barnevelder hens, two rir, two White rocks, and a Barred Rock. Who is mom? The yellows in particular.

    Can anyone identify which, if any, are pure silver double laced barnevelder?

    Roo is pure Silver double Laced Barnevelder. Two hens were also pure Barnie. Two hens RIR, two White Plymouth Rocks, and one Barred Rock. Three eggs looked like Barnie eggs, the rest were larger and lighter..except what think was the speckled RIR. Can anyone tell? Thank you!

    Color genetic experts please.

    I'm just curious...first time incubating here. I have a Silver Double Laced Barnie rooster. Two SDLB hens, two RIR, two Plymouth Rock Hens, and a Barred Rock. Where am I getting yellow and silver down from? Thank you!

    Day 14

    I'm on day 14 with my home grown eggs and first attempt at incubating. I started with 27 and now have 17. One or two continue to be questionable because of dark shells. I can see veins still...so I'll continue to monitor. The rest appear to be very lively and everything looks on target...

    Buff duck not laying.

    I've tried to look this up, but just wanted some expert answers. My ducks will both be one in April. Drake is Pekin, hen is Buff. She had been laying consistently almost daily until about six weeks ago. She stopped and started nesting. A few weeks later I put some chicken eggs under her...

    Breed?

    I was told this pair were Dixie Rainbow when I got them at TSC. Quite certain that's not the case. Any ideas? His earlobes in person are blue...hers as well.

    New chicks coming Saturday, and an incubator started up.

    I put a few eggs under my broody duck recently; she's a Buff. Since she isn't laying and appears determined, I thought I'd try it with some chicken eggs. So far, she rolled two out and is sticking right to her nest with the rest and appears ready to finish this out. I'm hoping for the best...

    Who has Dixie Rainbows?

    I got two tiny Dixie Rainbows last weekend at TSC when they were marked down to 50 cents. Anybody else have them? Information is very scarce! Thanks!

    New chicken person. Is she broody?

    So, I have a White Rock who is about 25 weeks. She's been laying a little over a month. Yesterday, she stayed in the nesting box much of the day. Today it's been all day? Will she come out to drink and eat? It's 90 today! Picture just cause she's cute.

    New female Buff

    I have two 18 week old Pekins. They began fighting over me every time I came near them....so I'm thinking it was sexualized behavior...I am their new object of affection. So, I came across this cute little female Buff Sunday and brought her home. My one male is going to a new home to keep a...

    Male ducks fighting!

    I have two ducks I got this year, they must be close to 20 weeks now. Both have drake feathers, so are apparently males. In the last few weeks they have had behavioral changes that I think may be sexual maturity issues. They were terrified of me previouly...which hurt my feelings...because...

    Starting layers

    Ok, I have five possible layers...2 RIR, 2 Plymouth Rock, and one Barred Rock. These are my first eggs, one a day since Monday from the left. Same chicken? Huge difference in them!

    Confused!

    I bought two chicks from a local hobby farm. I was told one was a French Black Copper Marans....which appears true. But why does my supposed Barnevelder not have markings I typically see.? BTW, I am new to all of this. First picture was vivid colors...so not true color. Thank you all!!

    Sexing again.

    I have a three week old French Black Copper Marans and a tad older Barnevelder. Please tell me they both aren't roosters
