cockeral

We bought 15 female “Lakeside Eggers” from Meyer Hatchery. Lakeside Eggers are a hybrid that lay blue eggs. They are 12 weeks old now, and I am noticing cockerel-like behaivior in the one in the photos posted below. Plus spur buds starting to show on his legs. Do you all agree this one...

Hi everyone! We have a roo that is in search of his forever home. We have too many roosters. He is a little shy of 3 months old. He is an Ameraucana (hen) and lavender Orpington (rooster) mix and is beautiful! His tail is the iridescent green/blue! Location: Richmond/Fredericksburg area, VA

I got these two (along with two others) at the end of July. They came out of the "pullets" bin at the farm store. Attila the Hen (with the tiny comb) has always been at least a few days further along in her development than Jabba the Hen. However, all of a sudden, Jabba's comb and waddle are...

I have a cockerel that is 22 weeks old along with 7 pullets that are 22 weeks. I also have 5 pullets. They were all raised from chicks and are one intergrated flock. The problem I’m having is the cockeral has been getting aggressive with my 14 yr old grandaughter. When she goes into the run to...

Hello, I am having cockerel/pullet concerns about two of my chicks. One of my Black Australorps (#1) is bigger than the other (#2) and has pinker wattles and comb. My Easter Egger(#3) which has crossbeak, seems to have the three row comb. They are 7 weeks 2 days in these photos. I have my...

Polish X Silkie cross 12 weeks old Was pretty sure was a pullet, now not so sure.

Hello! We have some really cute cockerals. We have the following: Pic: 1 Black Tailed White Japanese Cockeral Pic: 2. Red silkie cockeral Pic: 3. And 4 Barnyard mix cockeral Mom full bred Asian dad? I think that his dad is a Ameraucana/ Wyandotte. $10 each except for the Japanese bantam $12...

Hi everyone! I got my latest batch of chicks from the Racine Farm & Fleet. Turns out that two of my pullets are cockerels. I have a Brahma Roo (who, minus the spurs, seems to be fully mature--he tried mating with my three year old Easter Egger) and an Easter Egger cockerel (who is still sweet...

I have raised a female and male together and they’re now 6.7 weeks old. I can’t find anything online suggesting why the male is crowing already, it says they normally do this from 4/5 months or sometimes later. I was wondering if anyone would know why this is happening so young? Thank you

Hi everyone, our 15 week old Starlight Green Egger’s comb and wattle areas have started growing and turning bright red. We thought it was a pullet when we got her but now I’m second guessing it. What do y’all think? Thanks!

We recently got a silkie rooster to add to our flock. The lady who we got him from didn't know how old he was as she got him from someone else (she got him in a random assortment of chickens and didn't need any more roosters), but he seems to be about 1 year old to me. He is our only rooster and...

Hi there! I have these 3 8ish week old chicks that I'm not 100% sure of. What do you guys think, pullet or cockerel?

Gender guesses for this sweet baby? It’s the first and only chick I’ve ever hatched! Thrilled baby is 6 weeks old and doing great. Any guesses on cockerel or pullet? I had no problem determining my polish genders.. the silkies were very hard. Now that this cross is completely new to me, I...

Hi, I have 4 silkies all about 10 weeks old. I think #4 is a girl because her wattle and comb are under developed compared to the others. Any thoughts about the others, all boys? Thanks.

hello there guys, so the title says it all here in this case, last couple days now about four i noticed my rooster has had hard time pooping which he never does he was making straining sounds too while he does go and had runny diarrhea like poops but they looked normal other wise. I believe he...

Does anyone have any examples of the difference between a 4-5 week old maran pullet and cockerel? I have some marans and am having a hard time distinguishing the difference as their legs, combs, etc seem to be rather similar. I understand its probably too early to tell, but I'm just curious to...

Hi folks! I have 4 EE chicks that arrived mid February. I originally ordered three, but four showed up in the mail. I suspect that one is a rooster. None of them have outright distinct rooster/cockerel characteristics at the moment. But this one definitely displays the most rooster-like...

Hello everyone! New to the group and I was here looking for a little help. Feb 28th my chicks were shipped , I ordered from Cackle Hatchery. I ordered 3 Welsummer pullets, and 3 Barred rock pullets. They threw in a extra barred rock which turned out to be a cockerel. Now I’m questioning 2 of my...

Hi all, We’re really torn with this bird we originally thought it was a Pullet but now we’re convinced it’s a Cockeral can you help?
