    A Rooster Love Story

    It's the same story as everyone else's, I guess: my favorite blue cuddly chick turned out to be a rooster. And, like all the others before him, he was the very best of all roosters until one day he just wasn't. I can't even tell how many times he's flogged me by now - I have a scar from a...

    Two-year-old Lavender Orpington Rooster - Tualatin, OR

    I will be keeping him until I find the right situation for him. I don't breed chickens.

    I may get desperate at some point and drive 42 hours! :)

    Two-year-old Lavender Orpington Rooster - Tualatin, OR

    I have 10 hens and a two-year-old rooster named Bluebarb, whom I've had since he was born. However I work at a school with acreage and can't let my chooks out to free range after hours as I'm afraid Barb is going to run across a straggler child. He's a good boy, loves to be cuddled once you pick...

    18-Week-Old BLM Wyandotte I am so confused

    She's a Wilco chick so her parent could be ANYBODY. :)

    18-Week-Old BLM Wyandotte I am so confused

    I will! She's really so fussy -- I live on the 20 acres of the school I work at. Yesterday I picked her up and she screamed so insanely that I got a call from a coworker asking if an animal were attacking my chickens. :rolleyes:

    18-Week-Old BLM Wyandotte I am so confused

    Yes, that might explain it. Her tail has always been unlike my other hens, which added another level to my confusion. Just happy she seems to be a girl - hopefully I will soon have an egg from the grumpy weirdo. :)

    Can someone explain the black in her tail? These are from end of August:

    18-Week-Old BLM Wyandotte I am so confused

    She IS a Wilco chicken so lord only knows. She is also a loner and hates being picked up - she screams like her head is on the chopping block when I just want to give her a smooch!

    18-Week-Old BLM Wyandotte I am so confused

    I DID read that which led me to remain optimistic. Hoorah for girls! I love my rooster, he is a sweet bub, but I only have 6 hens and couldn't keep another rooster - it was heartbreaking to think of Opal being a boy!

    18-Week-Old BLM Wyandotte I am so confused

    I'm so happy you guys think she's a girl. All the other times I've posted, everyone thought it was a cockerel! Just goes to show.

    Black in the tail feather means cockerel, no? But no saddle feathers? And light pink comb/waddles that came in early but never got bigger? OY.

    11-Week-Old Wilco Chicks Sexing

    Hi everyone - I've been raising a flock of 6 bubs I picked up at Wilco back in May. They are 11 weeks old now and a few of them I'm just not 100% sure of -- especially the Wyandottes. I was hoping you guys might be able to help me out! 1. This wyandotte has been strange from the beginning...

    Opal Fancytail? Any Wyandotte experts? 8 Weeks Old

    Thanks, mamajos! I've definitely read that thread before in my investigations. Fingers crossed I'll get lucky like the poster did!

    Opal Fancytail? Any Wyandotte experts? 8 Weeks Old

    Hi friends! I've been keeping an eye on one particular chick in my flock - an 8-week-old SLR Wyandotte. I was convinced it was a boy (and so were a few people on these boards) but now I think the lacing is rather female. But s/he has slightly curved tail feathers? Plus some friends on Reddit...
