    What gender are my silkies?

    Hey guys! It's been a couple months and unfortunately both are now crowing, and are starting to look like cockerels. Thanks for giving me your advice! I really appreciate it and I know that sillkies are hard to sex so I don't blame anyone for thinking they were girls, I thought so myself 😊

    Hen or Rooster!?

    Hey! I've been around Buff Orpintons and Rhode Island Reds for a while now, and I agree that the Orpington is a roo and the RIR is a hen. Good luck with your chickens!

    Problems with a waterer - A real head scratcher

    I was having issues with my waters also, and it turned out they weren't level. Make sure that it is level and if it still doesn't help you probably should replace it.

    ROO OR NOT

    Legbars are auto sexing, it should be really easy to tell whether its a male or female just by the color. Some pictures would help

    What gender are my silkies?

    They only stand up straight if they are very attentive, and I thought they had a little bit of deeper voices but I don't think the voice matters... at least that what I've heard people say. If I spook them by accident they usually stand up real straight and look around but my Easter Egger does...

    What gender are my silkies?

    I hope so. I'm really hoping to have hens because I wanted to bread them to my friend's silkie rooster

    My cockerel killed me hen I think?

    When we had Buff Orpington roosters they are a generally docile breed but we had one rooster that was really mean from the beginning and attacked everyone. Not sure why some roosters turn out that way even when they were raised the same as other roos. I would cull yours if I were you. What breed...

    Male or female?

    You can see by the comb and wattles, but it is also sex-linked so you can tell by the color that it is a male. Males will hatch barred and females will have solid coloring.

    Please help me identify my chicks!

    It's pretty early to tell, and if they are Wyandottes, you can't tell by their color what gender they are. With chicks if you want to tell by color what gender they are you can only do that if the breed is auto-sexing

    The white one you were holding is for sure a cockerel, the other two I'm not sure

    What gender are my silkies?

    Hey! I bought four chicks from Kahoots about 4 months ago (16 weeks.) I got two Silkies, an Easter Egger, and a Lavender Orpington. I can tell that the Lavender Orpington is a rooster, he has red comb, pointy saddle feathers and he started crowing. The Easter Egger is also pretty clearly a hen...

    Rescue hen is starting to look like rooster??

    If he's not been aggressive to your hens and he's grown up with them it should be fine unless you are worried about crowing. When introducing your chicks try separating them in a different cage but have it in the coop so that they can get to know your chickens better. Even hens will fight other...
