    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    Last time I posted was in 2018...all 5 girls from my original flock are gone now. We buy a few new chicks every other year. 2022 was an unlucky year in Chicklandia, we lost 6 that year (2 to hawks, 3 to illness/cancer, 1 was unexplained). My current flock of 7 is a mix of ages and breeds, I'm...

    2nd batch--pullet or cockerel? 6 week old ameraucanas and wyandotte

    Wyatt Chearp is back. My friend was so positive that it is a female that she brought it back to me because she knows we got kind of unlucky with our straight runs (4 probable males out of 7). I'm not going to try to rehome Wyatt again until he crows. Here is a pic of him (her?) from this morning

    2nd batch--pullet or cockerel? 6 week old ameraucanas and wyandotte

    Thanks RhodeRunner, we rehomed the wyandotte last week with a friend who has 12 hens about the same age. He wasn't accepted into the flock so she has him separated from the others and will try to integrate him slowly. He's friendly to her and her dog and I'm really hoping it works out for him :fl

    Oregon

    Hello! Newbie in Salem, Oregon. At the beginning of April, I bought 7 straight run chicks, plus 2 females, hoping to end up with 5 or 6 hens. 6 weeks later, we've determined 3 of the 7 straight runs are definitely male (on the fence about 2, only 2 out of the 7 are unquestionably female)...

    2nd batch--pullet or cockerel? 6 week old ameraucanas and wyandotte

    With these three, I think there's two males and one female. But I've never owned chickens before and my husband wants me to confirm with more knowledgeable people. The blue laced red wyandotte has a red comb and wattles. Of the two lavender ameraucanas, one has long hackle feathers that it...

    On top of that, the males were my favorites, of course :(

    Pullet or cockerel? Six week old bantam cochins

    Thanks...that's what I thought. I got an assortment of 7 straight run chicks (3 bantam cochins, a silkie, 2 lavender ameraucanas and 1 blue laced red wyandotte)...4 of them are male :hit

    Pullet or cockerel? Six week old bantam cochins

    I have 3 six-week old bantam cochins. I'm thinking at this point that the barred cochin is male, the white cochin is female, but I'm not sure about the partridge cochin. Any thoughts? #1 - Barred cochin, #2 - white cochin, #3 partridge cochin

    Hello from Salem, Oregon

    I'm a chicken newbie. A while back, my husband and I ordered 6 chicks from a popular online website (which I will not name), and all six did not survive the journey. I was devastated to say the least...I went out that day and bought 4 straight-run bantam cochin chicks from Wilco, and three...
