    Barred Rock/Ameraucana Cross

    I have a Barred Ameraucana Cross Rooster, (I'm making this post late at night and don't have a picture so I looked it up) -- which this image is from cackle hatchery and it's classifying this as a Black Sex Link. My two hens are Ameraucana purebreds and I wondered what I'd get if I crossed them...

    Bielefelder over RIR - sex links?

    I have a question abou sexlink chicks. I've been reading for a good hour now about sex-linked breeds and nowhere can I find something about breeding barred over non barred. My biels, are (what I would consider) barred. My RIR's are not. So would I get sexlinks? Or would that not work because...

    Need help identifying a chick!

    Hello everyone! So I bought 8 chicks a little over a month ago, and one of them, I was told, was a Black Jersey Giant. Right off the bat, it didn’t really look like one, and I was wondering if it was an Americauna. At this point, I’m truly not sure, but I definitely don’t think it’s a Jersey...

    Is this chicken a Pullet or cockerel?

    This chicken is a barred rock (I was told at the tack store) other people on here have said that it could be a cuckoo maran. I still don’t know. But that’s not my main question, is this lovely chicken a pullet or cockerel? She/he is seven weeks old!

    Help sexing these cuckoos

    Wondering if it’s safe to assume these cuckoo maran crosses (or maybe barred rock crosses) are pullets? I’ve gotten so many mixed opinions so far. 9 weeks old today. Don’t mind my other birds in the background. I got so many cockerels from my last hatch still working at finding them homes. 1. 2.

    The Florida

    This is a crossbreed project inspired by the Delaware breed. The Delaware were created from white sports that resulted from mating a Barred Rock rooster to a New Hampshire hen. I crossed my Barred Rock roo with Dixie Rainbow, which look similar to New Hampshire but instead of 5 to 6 pounds...

    Bantam Barred Cockerel Chick

    Based on a great post, I was able to determine that the bantam barred rock I just got is male (undefined head patch and light legs). I've always only had hens. We only have 1.25 acres, so I'm concerned about noise once he is grown. I have read that rock cockerels are pretty laid back. So...
