These are the mums and dads. I bet they made some pretty babies

You might have seen a post earlier in October about my buff & buff banty sitting on eggs. My staggered hatch was successful and resulted in 13 live happy babies so far. I ended up with colors I was not expecting with the breeding, so I don't think I can count on sex linking as I assumed I...

True enough, I have 5 kids so I should understand this lol

I knew I had a broody hen, now it looks like I have 2 sharing the same eggs and "nest box" The others are laying continuously in that old horse feeder, so there have to be a good 15 eggs at different stages of incubation in there. How do Isolate/separate these two when they won't let me near...

I got 6 day olds after Easter from a local farmer. Every single one looks different. The big roo in the other pic, and the little gold one beside it were all from the same run.

The positive, they are ALL the same age. Just at ready to lay age. Great advice!

I have my 4 hens and 2 roos that I have raised from babies. I just acquired 6 additional healthy barred rock hens over a week ago to add to my flock. My setup is actually an old horse barn. I used the 2 largest doored stalls for each flock to stay separate, and the new ladies quarantined. I...

See, that is why I am confused. I had another Barred Rock arrive with the other that VERY quickly and obviously became a Rooster.

The 5 BYM are 12 - 15 wks Barred rock girl is 19 weeks

This is my first ever group of chickens. It's been a great learning experience thanks to the information on this forum! All are healthy and doing well thanks to what I have read here. As usual for a newbie, I need sexing help for my BYM birds. 1. Unsure of sex on this one. 2. Brown dude...
