    2 broodies hatched out chicks and are fighting - now what???

    How did it go in tge6end? My 2 families are 8 weeks old now, and one of the mummas still tries to attack the other one if she gets near, so her babies are really timid. They are ok out in the garden because they can keep away, but taking down the barrier in the run still isn't possible.

    Help sexing 8 week old chicks needed

    Hi everyone. I have 2 legbars and 2 Polish. All 8 weeks old. I know the silvery grey legbar is make, because his colours at hatching were very definite, the brownish one was less clear 'she' is smaller, thinner legs, smaller comb and so far no wattkes, but worried may just be a slower developer...

    Pullets or roosters?

    Sorry, the 2 pics are of 2 of the polish chicks (the 3rd is identical to the black one, and with a different mum) it's so hard getting pictures when they don't keep still! Will try and get some more later.

    Pullets or roosters?

    Hi everyone I have 5 new chicks hatched to my 2 broody chickens. 3 are Pokish, 2 cream legbar. I know one of the legbars is definitely male, he had a very bright spot.
