One of my muscovy hens is hatching a big community nest, and I know for certain there is at least 1 "not muscovy" in the bunch as it has a striped face. The rest are all chocolate with the exception of 1 other so far who appears to be pied. My biggest question is what to look for to identify any...
White Leghorn hen crossed with a barred cross rooster from a meat project. The hen decided to move in from across the street. Apparently my food tastes better?😅 I'm not looking for a 100% guarantee on sex, I would like educated guesses from people that use the method though. And if they are kind...
Update! So my trip went nowhere near according to plan (lol of course not) so I still have all my girls. Thank you @ChickenCanoe for your response! I'm trading one hen to a friend for a CCL hen, but all the rest of the girls will just stay. I'll put my small comb ladies under the CCL roo for...
We leave in the morning. I just caught a few of each to take, and am keeping a few of each. But I'll be back after we get back and maybe I can get solo pics of the hens I kept to decide which girls go in with the cream legbar roo and which girls go in with the crele rooster. If I can find one at...

Hello Virginia chicken peeps, my friend lives in Arlington and is looking for calico cochin bantams(chicks, hatching eggs, or adult birds), cream legbar hatching eggs, and broilers. She knows she'll probably need to go through a hatchery for the broilers, but wants to stay as local as possible...
Thank you all for the warm welcome. 🙂 I will probably head over to the social forum to do some searching*coughcough*shopping*coughcough* later tonight. 😁

Anywho, she is looking for calico cochin...
