    Help!! Barred Rock Gender???????

    We got a chicken 3 months ago and it started crowing when it was 1.5 months. And now it crows every day. But we read some articles saying the barred rock will crow to show her dominance especially when there is no rooster. We also get three more hens and they get beat up by her sometimes and one...

    Whittlers Way Farm Hello from Crab Orchard KY

    We have been raising Chickens for 10 years and have about 20 chickens that are full-blooded barn yards. There is a stronger base of Rhode Island Reds but probably about 6 other breeds because my wife liked beautiful chickens and sent me all over KY buying different ones for looks and we ended up...

    Pure Barred Rocks or australorp cross?

    I got some 5 month old pullets and they are starting to look a little interesting. Came from a breeder that sold them as pure rocks although the breeder also has several flocks and I got an australorp x barrad rock chick for free when i got the pullets. I don’t have any barred rocks so I can’t...

    Worried this Barred Rock is a Cockerel

    I'm worried this one is a Cockerel. The only reason that's a problem is I live in the city. I live at the edge by a a very large park, but I can't have roosters. It looks like they may have sickle feathers. They are about 4 and 1/2 weeks old. Anyone have any thoughts?

    Chick ID? Easter eggers and more ?

    So from previous posts I’ve come to realize TSC isn’t the most reliable for gendering and breeding right, but as the chicks are getting older I bought what I thought were 7 Easter egger pullets and I’m thinking there’s some mix ins for breeds which is fine it’s just interesting to watch them...

    White Leghorn laying soft shell eggs and has very swollen vent.

    I need help :( over the last two or so days I’ve noticed my White Leghorns wings have been drooping and she keeps falling asleep in the middle of the day, and just overall doesn’t look great. I’ve been finding one egg nearly everyday that doesn’t have a hard shell… I’d say for probably the last...

    Black sex link barred rock? What sex?

    I was so sure that this bird was a barred rock pullet until it grew some wing feathers. COMPLETELY BLACK! No stripes, nothing. I narrowed down all the possible breeds from what the breeder had to two. Barred Rock, and Black Australorp, but at a few days old it had the white bum, bib, wing tips...

    When are pullets combs supposed to get their color?

    I have three 11 week old pullets. 1 black Australorp and 2 barred rocks. They have pretty short combs and they aren’t really red but more on the light pink side. They also look kind of dry. This is my first time having chickens so I just want to make sure they are alright.

    Broody hen! How can I stop her?

Then we noticed that in the back or the coop there was a nest. Dixie made the nest and was sleeping in it. Now she is staying in...

    Are all three cockerels?

    I have 5wk old chickens and I think these three are cockerels. Am I right? Am I wrong? They seem to like each other at least. Sorry for the little fluff butt in there lol there is a barred rock, golden laced Wyandotte and I’m not for sure the breed of the white one.

    Two Barred Rock chicks (I think!) sexing help!

    Hi! I am new to chicken raising and I recently purchased 8 chicks from TSC. I have had them 5 weeks. I have two straight run barred rocks, and they couldn’t look more different. One is very dark with minimal bars, and already has a pretty significant comb and wattle compared to all other chicks...
