    Pullet vs Cockerel

    My gut/pics are telling me cockerel but for the sake of my family loving this one I’m hoping it’s a she! No other barreds to compare in our flock. 4-5 weeks with one of my 5-6 week buffys and an australorp 4-5 weeks. Waddles developing, comb VERY pale pink 3-4 weeks old

    Cream Legbar cross chicks (Maran X and Barred Plymouth Rock X), sexing and colour genetics?

    So I've recently been sucked into the black hole of what is chicken colouring genetics. And after days of research... I'm still a bit confused I've discovered how wonderfully complex and interesting this area is! And would like some advice, thoughts, opinions or maybe some links to information...

    Do Barred Plymouth Rock roosters have blue tail feathers?

    I am deciding which breed rooster to add to my flock and saw a beautiful photo online of a BPR roo that had some blue tail feathers. Is that common or did someone cross BPR with another breed to achieve that? thanks!

    Could this be a mix?

    I purchased this as a barred Plymouth Rock at my local supply store in May. But as I’m looking at her, her legs are not completely yellow but have a grey/green line down the front. Is she a true BPR or is she a mix?

    Barred Plymouth Rock Chicks

    Are these two week old chicks boys or girls? We honestly don’t have a clue, though their behaviour has been very bold.

    Chickies get their first treat!

    Gave the 2 week olds a tasty treat today. HOLY COW they got excited over meal worms! My dog LOVES these birds. He gets upset when they're not with him and are in the brooder. He has to check on them ;) Best decision ever, to start a backyard flock. After snack time, everyone got to preening and...

    Introduction

    I'm new, so per the registration instructions, here are my answers: (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? We just bought a coop and were readying to buy chickens (we wanted heritage breeds and are finding most hatcheries are marketing as heritage but they aren't really...

    Barred Plymouth Rock - Henni aka Henrietta. She's a very sweet and gentle girl that will fly up and land on my shoulder to get some quality one on one time without having to compete for it. She's at the bottom of the pecking order.

    Choking Hen! Help!

    Hi all, I just had a massive scare. My 1.5 year old Barred Plymouth Rock hen, Tilly, just started choking. I was bringing them in from their pen and I left her in the coop to go bring in two of her sisters. I come back and she has her beak wide open, trying to gasp. I pick her up and stick my...

    The Flower Flock

    I thought it would be interesting to keep progress pictures of my chicks, since A.) I'm obsessed with everything they do, and B.) I'm curious about how my Easter Eggers will change. :D I bought the first four flower girls 4 weeks ago, and the second group 2 weeks ago. Excuse the double...

    Egg Laying Issues

    I got 3 one year old laying hens (1 RIR, 1 barred rock, 1 isa brown) at the end of June from someone rehoming them. They were all laying one egg a day consistently right away for about two weeks. Then all of a sudden the barred rock and isa brown stopped laying completely. I didn't know if it...

    Chicken Show Help!

    Hi all! I wasn't sure what what category to put this thread in so I just put it in this one. I'm interested in entering one or two of my hens in a poultry show. They are both very beautiful and have the right temperaments for it, I think. They are a Buff Brahma and a Lavender Orpington. I have...
