    Chicken genetics???

    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...

    What on Earth is this bird?!

    We have a joke in the household now that our chicken breeder sold us a pigeon. So we tried picking up another Silkie to join our flock, and although this bird has some Silkie, I have no idea what else she could be? The breeder's "Silkie" laying chickens hardly looked Silkie themselves. Hopefully...

    What breed are my chickens?

    I just adopted 2 pullets and 1 cockerel from this lady on Craigslist. She advertised them as 4 month old silkies, when I saw them they were obviously not silkies. They do look like a mix of things but I’m really not sure. I’m assuming they’re all from the same hatch... This is my first time...

    What breeds are these chicks?

    So before anyone asks, I’m not really sure on their ages. I got them a month or two ago (I think) and lost track of when I originally bought them. I thought I had bought black sex links and golden laced Wyandottes, but I’m not exactly sure. I’m not really sure about these silver and black chicks...

    Chick help

    Got this chick with 11 different chicks from Rural King. They’re all about 4-5 weeks old. This ones about half the size of every other chick but feathering out around the same rate. Has pale/grey clean legs and rounder in the back with small tail feathers just coming in.
