Hello!
Recently, over the last few weeks, a chicken has been visiting my backyard. I figured she was a free range chicken and went back to her coop at night. I ended up following her one night and found out she was living in a downed tree behind my fence. I started giving her food and water...
Hi,
Have what I think are 3 boys - grey, black and white and two girls - white and brown.
Have no idea on breeds, and would like to know if my assumptions on the genders are correct!
What I think is a rooster (the black one with white bits - doesn’t crow like the other two and is VERY calm so...
We rescued this chick a couple of weeks ago or something and I tried asking what breed or gender it was but everyone was saying that it was too early to tell. I don’t know if anyone will be able to tell now or not, but does anyone know what breed or gender this chicken is?
We think that he’s a...
Ginger, the chicken in front, was supposed to be a Black Star hen. She is much bigger than her peers and makes a loud honking noise that sounds more like a goose than a chicken. Your thoughts?
My mom and I recently took in a cute chicken that was going to be butchered this week and named her Zebra. She’s the sweetest chicken and I love her so much!
But there is debate on whether she’s a boy or girl. I think she’s a girl and my mom thinks she’s a boy.
What do you guys think?
Also...
Please help, we were recently given 11 ducks of various breeds, and are trying to figure out what breeds and ducks/drakes we have.
Can Black Swedish have black spots on their chest? Does green head automatically mean male? Are the two light ones Silver Appleyard?
I’ve had this boy for over two years now. I believed he was perhaps a Faverolle for the longest time but he doesn’t have the extra toe. What do you think he could be? A Faverolle or something else? His name is Crowe. He’s the sweetest thing. Never pecked or flogged us or my one year old. Never...
Hi this young lady came with a flock of 2 barred rocks, 2 light Sussex and a black rock today.
She is definitely a pullet about 16 weeks old but what breed ? She’s got 1or 2 black tail feathers but she is predominantly silvery white not pure white like the sussex’s. She has very white legs also...
The person I got her/him from only said bantam. They also said 6-8 weeks and no way it was a roo. They sent me a video before we got it with no comb at all but when it came home it had a pretty obvious comb. So I’m sure it’s a rooster but can y’all confirm?
what breed do you think this is? It...
I have a new flock, about 16 weeks old. I feel my one chicken is a rooster, can you all help me out please. Its my first flock i have ever had. There is a huge size difference from body weight, leg thickness and how they act.
We found this little guy (or gal) on the interstate, in the city... Any clue what breed, age, and sex it is? His back feathers are torn up, maybe he was used as a game cock?
Hi,
I have no idea what breed or gender my chicks are! They are 1-2 days old. Any insight into breed and gender for each would be great! I know it may not be possible to sex at this age but any insight on when it will be possible would be great!Thanks,
Beth
I recieved this chick along with 2 ducks(Cayuga and khaki Campbell) its attached to them since they were raised together and follows them everywhere. I do put it along with my other chickens and it'll go peeping along until its reunited with its buddies❤ does anyone know what breed of chick it...
my buff cochin and ss crossed chicks are a little over 7 weeks old now. they’re doing very well, and eating nicely. however, i’m confused as to what they are lol. chick number 1 appears to be a cockerel, while 2, 3, and 4 appear to be pullets. or so i thought. 3 and 4’s posture has me confused...
So a few weeks ago I posted here and was told this was a buff Cochin. I have two other best coaches, and the more this one develops, the more I realize it's not a buff Cochins. Lol
Could this be a Gold Neck D'Uccle?
Any other ideas?
Also, I'm guessing cockeral, yes?
Thanks in advance!
I am newer to chickens, and really new to chicken genetics. I am wondering about how much it matters the breed of rooster vs hen. ie I’ve seen Maran over Ee to or Americana, but not the other way around, does that matter? I have an EE cockerel (gamebird rooXcream legbar hen) so if I cross with...
