So, I have a neighbor who refuses to keep their dog contained. They know their dog gets out and likes to attack animals because it is trapped in a garage while owners are at work. We have witnessed several attacks and have called animal control who actually came out today. The dog has attacked...
Looking for homes for my handsome guys - the Dominique was from TSC and the Salmon fav/mixed I hatched on Sept 10th. They had a Salmon fav dad, not sure what the hens were, could have been salmons also but could be mixed, they were just a barnyard mix.
I prefer to keep the darker one but could...
A couple of days ago I posted pics of 6 chicks asking or help in sexting them. The pics weren't very good, so I started over and got better pictures of the 6. They are 11 & 12 weeks old. There were 2 Lavender Americaunas which were the younger, and 4 Lavender Orpingtons. They were all...
Hello,
I posted this already And didn't get many responses but please let me know what you think. I need to make a decision on keeping or not. Is this a cockeral or pullet. It is almost 7 weeks old I did take pics to compare to my female Rhode island red.
Thanks missy
I ended up with WAY too many cockerals for the amount of hens I actually got out of my “started pullets” order. But I have most of the boys scheduled to be butchered. There is one really sweet submissive cockeral that I’d hate to butcher bc he is so sweet, but I have a Australorp that has...
Hello!
I have 3 hens who I got just before they began laying this summer. They were my first chickens, and now I'm obsessed.
I now also have 3 Sapphire Gem baby chicks I got from Bomgaars, straight run bin.
I read every single forum post and comment about Sapphire Gems beforehand to try and...
[Pic 1: Left is an 11 week old cockeral, middle/right are 15 week old pullets

I love my Bielefelders, my pullets are gorgeous and friendly and my cockerel and rooster are absolute eye-candy that can also get the job done. I am seriously stumped as to why this breed isn't...
I'm on the fence. This is a Lavender Orphington that hatched on March 3rd.
I've went back in forth, it's comb was always on the medium size. It matched my pullets up until maybe the last week or so. It's comb turned pinker than it has been and it's tail kinda sits up a little higher now. It's...
Hello!
I hatched my first chick just under three weeks ago and we can't have a cockeral in our flock due to living in a residential area. The people I've asked haven't any idea how to sex a chick so I was wondering if anybody else can help. The chick is a purebred glw and turns three weeks old...
we hatched out a chick from a black australorp hen and a rhode island red rooster. currently it's 4 weeks old and integrated into the flock. it is black with a green shine on it's feathers, and gold speckles on it's chest.
it got huge quick, quicker than i remember chicks growing. i may be able...
I raised this handsome guy since he was 1 day old. I thought ‘he’ was a ‘she’ but unfortunately ‘Beatrice’ is now ‘Billy’. Billy need a new loving home because I cannot have a rooster in my neighborhood. He hasn’t started crowing yet but he’s a handsome and well mannered guy. I’m in southern...
Hello! Back again in my usual forum section :barnie
I've got a Favorelle x ISA brown cockerel who hatched April 4th.
He was the biggest chick, and definitely most fluffy.
Sadly that was short lived as he's now the smallest chick. He's bullied by his other cockeral and pullet flockmates...
i have 2 bantam cochin roosters I need to find a home for. Bought 6 straight run Cochins and 4 turned up Roos. They’re about 10 weeks old,very friendly. I will meet near Columbus Ohio. I’m in Zanesfield. Both for $10, if you’re interested I will post pics. One is white and brown and one is black...
We have a stunning Silver Barred Rooster who is just over three months old. He has resemblance to his Legbar mother, and she lays the most beautiful large blue eggs. I've always loved her for her reliable egg laying. His father is a Birchen Hmong (black skinned) from Fibro Farms and he's a...
Three weeks ago I purchased 40, day old chicks (several breeds and all pullets) from a poultry hatchery. My question is this... Is one of the Silver Laced Wyandottes a cockeral instead of a pullet? I think maybe so. She/he is bigger than the rest, has red comb and pinkish wattles (although very...
When do polish roos start to show signs of a comb? Mine are still way too young to sex (3 weeks) but I'd like to know when to start looking for it. Thank you!
