    What is my golden Sebright bantam hen mixed with? Rest in peace, my sweet angel <3

    What is my golden Sebright bantam hen mixed with? Sia, my 2 year old Sebright tragically passed away due to a freak accident, that was completely my fault and 100% preventable on July 1, 2024. I wanted to give a tribute to her earlier, but it hurt too much writing about her. She was always so...

    Mixed breed identification request

    We’re considering hatching out some of our eggs and want to try and figure out what our rooster actually is before we start choosing what eggs to hatch out. The problem is we got him from an acquaintance who we no longer have contact with and had no idea who his mom could be. His dad is a Silver...

    Hi! I’m new here!

    I just wanted to introduce myself. I’ve been finding answers to my chicken questions here that others have asked for a few years now but never joined to ask my own questions or to be able to answer others. So I thought it was about time! Lol. I’m a mother of two and an avid chicken lover for...

    TSC bantam assortment

    I’ll post them in separate replies. Hatched 3/1, purchased from TSC from the bantam assortment bin. All have feathered yellow legs. I have no idea what breed or if they’re hens or roos. Chick 1

    Found what I’m pretty sure is young pullet, trying to figure out breed

    My brother and his friend found this young bird in the street (did not appear to be injured or limping, it ran from them very quickly) and asked me to identify if it was a hawk or chicken. I’m positive it is not a hawk and is a chicken (or at least some domestic poultry as it was fairly calm in...

    Black Spots with Poofy Cheeks

    I was wondering if y'all could help me identify one of my chickens, she's different from all of our others. As you can see she has a light color with black spots and little Poofy Cheeks. Thank you ahead of time for the help. ❤️

    Leghorn cross????

    This one was found and given to me to raise along with my two Ameraucana Chicks I hatched. I was told it’s a rescue but its always been super friendly and loves attention. Initially I thought it was a white Leghorn with dirt specks on its feathers but now the brown color appears to be parts of...

    Leg band on cock

    I banded my six hens and one cockerel Sept 12th at 20 weeks old. On all the birds, I used the 3/4" diameter (B) of the Aluminum leg bands for chickens from Pinnon Hatch. They are all Partridge Plymouth Rocks, too give an idea of sizing. The bands on the hens are doing well, but I'm concerned...

    Help! What breed and gender are these chickens?

    hello! we are new to raising chickens. We have had much trouble trying to get eggs because we are confusing the genders of our chickens; whether we bought them from non-truthful people or hatched them ourselves - still no luck. These two (black and black/white) we hatched ourselves, thought they...

    Sold as a black leghorn, but clearly isn’t!

    This pullet (named Craig) was bought at TSC as a black leghorn. She’s about 15-17 weeks old. Single comb, very small, black legs with 4 toes, feathered legs and partially feathered feet. Relatively lean build. Any ideas? Pretty timid so hard to get pics of. Thanks!

    Can someone help Identify our hen?

    Is my chicken a Welsummer?

    When I got her as a pullet last spring Nellie was identified as a Welsummer. But I’m having my doubts. First, her eggs are white (not brown). Second, she doesn’t quite have the same colors/patterns of pics I see online (I think she’s better-looking than those I see online, too ;)). I was hoping...

    Chicken Identification

    I need help figuring out what in the world this thing is. I had originally assumed him to be a Wheaten Ameracauna, but he doesn't have any tuft/beard and his feather pattern isn't right. It's possible he's a mutt, we got him at an auction, but I wanted to see if maybe his breed just wasn't in...
