    What gender is my 5-week-old chick?

    This is my little Ameraucana/BCM chick that I hatched 5 and a half weeks ago. He's the only survivor out of 12 incubated eggs and my first ever chick! He's always been very timid and shy and had "female-shaped" wings after hatching. His comb was very pale until last week. I read something...

    Black Copper Marans...Cockerel or Pullet?

    I am new to chickens, and I recently received 2 Black Copper Marans as day old chicks. Around 5 weeks, I started to see a difference in one of my BCMs. S/he started to sprout a little pink comb and wattles, so I figured I must have a roo. Now at 9 weeks, I am back to think s/he might be a pullet...

    Help identifying 12 week BCM

    Of course she/he is my favorite. I'm new to chickens and have 3 BCM. This one is the only one with copper on its neck. No other copper on wings or tail. 12 weeks old. Hoping it's a hen so I can keep it. 😭 Any insights into sex?

    Do eggs change color over time?

    My Noir Marans hen just layed her first egg (yay)! I thought Noir Marans were supposed to lay dark chocolate brown eggs but this one is very light brown. Any chance her eggs will darken as she continues to lay or is this the color they'll be forever? Thanks!

    Which breed of rooster is this?

    I purchased black stars, black copper marans and midnight majesty marans from the feed store. One of them turned out to be a rooster. Could you please help identify what breed the rooster is? He is about 16 weeks old.

    I hatched out these two BCM chicks- do I have two cockerels here or one of each? They’re 3 weeks old. Can take more pictures. The one with the slightly bigger comb has some brown coming through on the wings.

    Hi from South Carolina and need help with rehoming cockerel

    Hi – I’m Cynthia, a newbie backyard chicken parent. Henny Penny showed up in July 2022 and stayed. We thought we’d like a few hens once we retired, but that little stray accelerated the process. As the name (which stuck) implies, we mistook Henny for a “she” but crowing and beautiful saddle &...
