I got 4 sexed Delaware’s and 2 of them are roosters. Your outcome seems better then mine. Maybe Delaware chicks are really hard to sex out.

Thanks!!!

So the guy on the bottom left is my roo. This is he best pic I have of him and it’s raining but this was like 6 months ago and he was def a teen because he is much larger now. You can’t see his back feather but they are long and normally stick up... dark with a pretty green “sheen”. He’s a...

Is that the term for “baby rooster”?

my neighbors and I purchased a number of chicks this spring and they are now just over four weeks old... Two of the Delaware chicks my neighbor is raising have much larger combs and some “cheek stuff” that the others do not. Does this mean she randomly picked two roosters from our group of...

Awesome!!! Good luck with the new flock!!

Thank you!! I have been reading a lot about the deep litter method and have started this already! We also begin construction on the new coop this weekend!! I'm going to use natural roosts and with the increased space inside and out I think it will help! I don't know what they fed previously but...

These is a better picture. Her tail doesn't look different to me but obviously you guys would know better. But the darker ones tail does. Could that one be a rooster? I don't know breed so maybe it just looks different to me because she is a different breed. Oi my book needs to come in the mail!

Definitely possible!

She looks similar to one of mine that someone said may be an Australop

I have no idea - a total newbie and no help to you. But she is beautiful so I want to know too!

Hi Becky! Me too
