barnevelder

This beautiful chick is definitely either head hen or a roo. She's an amazing snuggler but she is also aggressive. Essentially, when you pick her up you have a 50/50 shot on whether or not she chooses violence or love

Hi. I have a very large coop and run that is 100% shaded and has lots of ventilation and is very high with multiple perches at varying heights. I have 3 feeders and 3 waterers. The whole coop and run are 100% protected from predators and extremely spacious, it's a gigantic Kingdom for...

Hello all! This is Rachel from the Casper household! We are in the planning process preparing to become a chicken family next summer! My husband and I have two boys, ages 14 months and three years. The older one was able to catch a chicken properly at a year and a half all by himself! So I had...

First off, my mom is the one that wanted these. Not me. Doesn't mean I don't though!😍 6 double silver laced Barnevelder eggs went in the bator like 30 minutes ago.

My friend got a couple Barnevelders from me this spring (hatched April 13th factory sexed) and just sent me this photo (first one in the grass). She said the bird doesn't crow and usually runs away from her but we think they/them looks like a he/him with the big red comb and wattles. I...

Barnevelder eggs, Marans eggs and Welsummer eggs

Hey guys! Anybody have a barnevelder rooster that looked like mine? He is 11 weeks old now. I’m so curious to see what he’s going to look like and there aren’t many barnevelder rooster pictures online that look close to how he looks. Here’s some pictures taken within the last couple weeks or so...

My little barnevelder is 6 weeks on Thursday any guesses as to gender?

I have this barnevelder chick. Around 3 weeks old. Does anybody have any idea if it looks male or female? Is it too early to tell? It’s wings seemed to take longer to grow than my other chick breeds. And it’s legs are thicker. Don’t have another barnevelder to compare it to though so I really...

I couldn’t figure out what thread for put this in because nothing seemed to totally match. Anyhow we ordered 20 chicks in April, all 20 survived and we sold 12 of them leaving us with 8 beautiful friendly little hens. We had 4 barnevelders and 1 cockerel and 2 pullets would beat the living...

I have a few chicks to which I am unsure of gender. A barred rock, aracauna, blue or splash australorp, gold laced wyandotte, silver laced wyandotte and gold laced barnevelder. Please see below images. Pingu the Australorp Sybil the SLW Goldie the GLW Beatrice the Barred Rock...

Does anyone have any pictures of any Barnevelder Crosses? Any help and or pictures would be very much appreciated!! Thanks for the time!

This is my first time raising barnevelder chicks. They are from two genetic lines which also doesn’t help with sexing them against each other. I was sure they were both pullers from the speed they both were feathering up and the length of their wings at 10+ days. Wanted to see others opinions as...

Hey everyone! I recently purchased what are supposed to be 3 barnevelder pullets from a local hatchery. I can't have a rooster where I live, so I'm a little obsessive watching them for any ideas of what they might end up being, and looking through all the photos online, I'm starting to suspect...

Hi everyone, This is my first post so hello! Our previous hens were taken by a fox about 10 weeks ago. After that happened we decided to incubate and hatch our own chicks so that our 4 children could understand and enjoy the experience. Out of 8 eggs, 7 hatched 2 x Vorwerk 2 x Buff Orpington...

Hello! My Barnevelders are only a week apart, but they have distinct differences and personalities. The one on the right (in the photo with the girl holding one) has a lighter chest, bigger legs, and bigger pinkish comb. Could she be a cockerel? 4 1/2 weeks on right, 3 1/2 on left. All other...

We are trying to decide if our four week old barnevelder, who was labeled as blue double laced, may be just a classic barnevelder. She is darker than we expected at this point and we aren’t finding much out there to compare her to. Does anyone have photos of their blue double laced chicks around...

Hi all, I have two chicks that are supposed to be Barnevelder pullets. The first one pictured (ignore barred rock behind) looks pretty standard to me, you can see the double-lacing coming in. The second one, however, doesn't look the same at all. Not even sure whether it's a Barnie or not...
