Too soon to tell cockerel vs pullet? I got a group of six chicks from Alchemist Farms. 2 are sexed pullets, 1 I’m pretty sure a pullet and then these three are through me off. #1 and #3 are the moss eggers. I think #3 might be a pullet and #1 a cockerel. #1 is smaller than #3 and it’s comb and...

First photo is most definitely a rooster and more than likely keeping him because of the beautiful grey coming in. Now the second/third photo I’m confused on gender. Looks like a hen to me but someone mentioned rooster. Any thoughts?

So I got two brahams from a local breeder and was told both are pullets. However fast forward a month; I think my gold laced Brahma is a rooster! I swear I see saddle feathers coming in. Thoughts?

Hello, My flock has been going through fowl pox for the past month. One in particular has it really bad around her eyes. One eye is completely shut and the other is slightly swollen with both having the scabs. Any advice in applying any topical treatment? I’ve been letting everyone run it’s...

Got this little one 2 weeks ago from a neighbor but they don’t know what gender. Hoping she’s a pullet, but I’m terrible at telling if they are Roos or hens 😂 Any guesses or am I gonna have to wait till she/he is older?

Hello! I recently picked up a cream crested polish pullet who is about 9 weeks old. She is super friendly and submissive towards people. However I noticed she seems to wobble when she walks. I did do a wellness check when I picked her up and she seemed very healthy. She’s eating, drinking and...

I’m having trouble deciding whether these guys are Roos or hens. I thought I had it down but I was wrong with some of my other chickens. These are the three light Brahmans. They are about 8ish weeks. Finding out I have a lot more roosters then I bargained for. Also the first two are really...
