Are you saying get those kind?

What?

Should I get rid of one of the roosters or? We are looking to have egg layers and down the road, meat. Will these two roosters fight once they get bigger over the hens?

So how do I go about getting more hens? Like breed wise, is there a specific type that can't be bred with mine? It sounds like a stupid question but I don't know if that's a thing.

That makes sense. We was thinking the same thing since two was bigger than the others. That helps alot. Thank you.

Oh...ok. Yea it doesn't say online the timeframe of when you can sex by feathers.

I did get them when they was 5 days old and she was an older lady with a small farm, so I highly doubt she just read something on the internet. The only reason I believe two are cockerels was because they have a comb and waddles. The other 2 only have a comb. However I just did my own "research"...

Sorry it took so long to reply. Yes they came from a private source. She did not specify what the breed was. However they all looked to be of the Red variety. She sexted them by looking at the wings. She said even double small feathers means female, and uneven single small feathers mean male...

Thanks. And yes let me round them up real quick and put them in the tub I used when they was smaller, so I can get a nice picture.

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I am very new to chickens. As a child I helped my grandparents with theirs. I got my first chickens about 5 weeks ago. (2) How many chickens do you have right now? I currently have 4 chicks. (3) What breeds do you have? I do not...

Hello everyone. I recently purchased 4 chicks off a lady, and she never told me what breed/hybrid that they are. I have looked at pictures of different types and I'm almost certain that they could be one of two types. How do I determine which one they actually are? Either Golden Comets, or...
