We got some “Assorted Colour Layers” from Peavey Mart (TSC) and these two are really making me question if I should be referring to the group as “the ladies”. They are 6 weeks old. Potential breeds are: ,Cream Legbar, Easter Egger, Midnight Majesty Marans, Olive Egger, Prairie Bluebell Egger...
Hi, I have an 8 month old chicken which is a Wyandotte X Frizzle. He/she looks like a Rooster to me but has never crowed. Is it possible to have a rooster that doesn’t crow? Or do you think this is a hen. Have also not seen it in the nesting box but I could miss that but I have seen it jumping...
These were sold to me as sapphire olive eggers, born April 12th 2021...they’re small and look more like OEGBs... can anyone confirm or tell me what they are?
Hi, this is my first post here. I am a first time chicken owner with a flock of 5 hens and a rooster.... or so we thought.
A bit of backstory: my dads friend is a HUUUGE chicken fanatic- she has over 200 chickens and countless more turkeys. She was so kind enough to lend me some for the summer...
I recently purchased six Blue Maran chicks from Tractor Supply. One of the things their associate did tell me was just because they were sexed does not mean a rooster doesn't sneak in once in a while.
During my nightly "poopy butt inspection" one chick triggered my what's out of place here...
Hey guys! I could use your help! I got these chicks from a small local hatchery as straight run. They are just about 5.5 weeks old. First chick is an Olive Egger the picture makes it look more red than it actually is but my guess would be roo. The gray chick is an Ameraucana again the photos...

I thought that if people posted pictures of their chickens that need to be sexed in this thread then there wouldn't be so many gender threads floating around. So if you are uncertain of the gender of one of your chickens then please post them here!
A couple notes:
-Most day-old chicks cannot...
So I ordered 10 easter eggers, got 11. They tote a 90% accuracy rate, so not a fail on their part if Peaches is a 'he'. The first photos are of Peaches. The next photos are of Dolly, whom I'm nervous to say is maybe a roo as well... Let me know what you think! I may have to start looking for a...
Hi! I have two super sweet 2 month old silkie chicks (both with frizzled genes). I know it is probably way to early to tell, but can anyone take a stab at their gender? Also, I can't decide if they are actually frizzled or not..I'm pretty certain my black one is, but I am new to silkies. Can...
Can you help me sex our mottled pekin. She/he is 13 weeks old. Hopefully I have managed to capture enough for someone to help. She isn't a fab of posing! Thanks in advance.

I'm Kierran, and I actually don't own any chickens. If this isn't the right place for this please let me know, and I'm really sorry!
I'm actually a producer on a podcast called Weird Work. We talk to people who have little known jobs, hear about their daily life, how they got into thier...
