    Silkie...Extra toe?

    I just noticed one of my chicks has an extra toe, the lady I got hatching eggs from said there is some silkie crossed hens in her flock. All the eggs I got were unknown barnyardmixes and this chick can out of a bluer egg. Can I assume this chick came from one of the silkie cross hens or is this...

    What breed are my lovely ladies?

    I think they're black sex-links, but was told they're barnyard mixes. The one that's mostly black does have some orange colour under her head. The chick pics are just to show what the one looked like as a chick, the other two in the first three photos I got when they were already all feathered...

    SL Wyandotte over Soeckled Sussex… Any guesses on colors? Who’s into color genetics?!

    Hi everyone! This is just for fun, but I’d love to hear what you think of these lil chicks and how they’ll turn out. Rooster is SL Wyandotte. Hen is Speckled Sussex and maybe a Saphire Gem? I know it was two hen’s eggs, but I can’t for the life of me figure out the second hen. Anywho, my...

    New to broody hens and silkie mixes

    My Plymouth Rock hen named Jelly (the one in my profile picture actually) has decided to sit on a couple of my barnyard mix’s eggs. Jelly unfortunately has scoliosis, so I will not be allowing her to hatch out her own eggs, just because I don’t want the deformity to be passed down. I am just...

    Breed? Gender?

    I was given this chicken and I am unsure of the breed and sex. Believe it's a sex link. I'm leaning rooster by the tail and spurs. About 14 weeks old. I was told its a pullet. I posted photos for reference. No noise yet.

    Happy Healthy Hatching!

    Stuck at work currently, wanted to share my three newest arrivals (since, ya know, I can’t be at home snuggling them). Bertha and Nugget hatched yesterday around lunch and Dale hatched early this morning. Will use this thread as my photo dump for these little ones as they grow up. Bertha...

    Genetics and Egg Color?

    I was wondering if a mix breed pullet's eggs are determined by the genetics of her mother or her father, or if it is random. For example, I have some chicks that are a mix of a Buckeye (Father) and a Black Copper Maran (Mother) so I was wondering if the hens would lay light brown eggs like a...

    First Ever Hatch Along! - Maran Mixes

    My first chick started pipping last night around 8:30pm, at about 7am this morning I heard the peeping of the first baby! This is my first hatch, quite a compulsive decision. We had to cull our rooster after he tried attacking me, but I didn't want to miss trying for some olive eggers! I was...

    Weird tail feathers on 12 week olds: cockerel or pullet?

    I have two BYM chicks that are 12 weeks old and based on their combs and wattles, I've been thinking they're pullets. But the tail feathers are really tripping me up and making me question that. I'm probably going to have to rehome them and I'd just like to know one way or the other before I do...

    Curiosity

    So, we hatched some barnyard mix chickens. I am trying to determine sex of the chicks. They are about 2 1/2 weeks old. At one week old, I tested the feather sexing to determine that 2 could be roosters. Now, looking at these combs.. I'm thinking I could have two more roosters... (3rd image to...
