    Growth on beak??

    How many Roos per hens?

    Yea that was my concern too for my girls. I’m hoping because the Polish brews are smaller and seem to be pretty docile right now that there won’t be too much fighting but definitely will have a plan in place in the event that happens. Thank you for your input.

    I can try. Tail feathers didn’t appear much different from the girls but will see I feel I can get a body shot!

    Hen or Roo?

    Hi everyone! I am in need of some help identifying if one of my Orpingtons is a roo. I grew up in the country with chickens but I am only familiar with bantams. Recently acquired six chicks back in April. My girls are all sweet as sugar. One stands out from the rest being more curious and...
