    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    The BR is a favorite. Very friendly. When I come outside I say “chickie babies” and all their heads pop up and look for me. The BR is the first to approach and will eat out of my hand too!

    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    Yeah I have 2.5 acres, but my dogs wouldn’t be kind to them. Also we have Eagles and Hawks. I’m trying my best to keep them safe. They seem happy. I change up the interior of run every couple weeks to give them something new to investigate. I will probably rehome the Wyandotte as it’s already...

    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    So then I have 2 roosters and 7 hens. Is that ratio ok, or should I look at giving one of the roos away? The barred rock would have to stay since he is my husbands favorite. However, I guess its name will go from Agnes to Arnold! :D Right now they all seem to do well together except for the...

    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    So incase anyone is still following this feed, my barred rock and speckled sussex were definitely cockerels. My wyandotte turned out to be a pullet! They are 17 weeks now. I was iffy on my other barred rock, because "she" was getting longer tail feathers and had a more developed comb and...

    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    I’m asking around. They look like they will be beautiful birds. But 3 on 5 wouldn’t be fair to my girls. So now I’m paranoid staring at the rest! From the pics do the rest appear to be pullets?

    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    I’m so sad! :( At what point do I need to remove them? So I’m assuming pullets combs turn red much later?

    7 week old chicks...help sexing please!!

    So, as many posts I have read, these were all bought as pullets. I have 2 of each, speckled Sussex, Colombian Wyandotte, Plymouth barred rock and gold star. I’m pretty certain one of speckled Sussex is a roo. I’m concerned about one of the Wyandotte and barred rock. I’m new to chickens and these...

    Hello, I’m new to chickens. We live on a small farm in Lithia, FL. We have horses, pigs, dogs, a donkey, a cat and 8 new chickies! Loving watching them grow and I love learning new things! I’m just learning I think I have 3 Roos in my 8 “pullets” I was sold, so figuring out what to do now...

    Help, Pullet or Cockerel?

    Makes total sense. Honestly I don’t want any roosters, even though they are beautiful! I’d rather my hens just be happy! Is that wrong? 😁

    Help, Pullet or Cockerel?

    So frustrating! I just don’t know where to go from here. Keep them or get rid of them? They are all together.
