I'm no expert but the second pictures looks like a rooster and also the one in the front in the first picture. The one in the back looks like the same chicken in the second picture.
Got so excited when I got my orders of 21 chick yesterday. Setup their brooder an everything, but it gives me grief to tell everyone that i found one dead when I checked on them this morning . Hope that it is the only one( crossing my fingers )First time for me just went and buried her. I...

Want to make one for my chickens in the future but afraid they won't know what to do when the times comes.
