    Cockerel?

    10 weeks old. I'm thinking cockerel but I have another that has a bigger, redder comb. I know they can be tricky. Also I suck at photos. I blame the phone.

    Hi all, Ever since my rooster Randy died 6 weeks ago the bullying in my flock (6 hens - 3 adults, 3 3-month olds) has been out of control. There are 2 main bullies but honestly they’ve all been bad to eachother except the smallest 2. I’ve done all kinds of arrangements - separating them...

    I attained these Black Australorps on April 18th, 2024. They were a few days old. I've had/have this breed previously, but only hens. I've noticed some drastic changes in this new group, and am curious if I've got a few cockerels among the four pictured here. They developed combs and waddles...

    Deathlayer mix cockerel, mixed with what?

    I hatched ebay eggs about 9-10 weeks ago. I recently sold most of them, I kept two. I believed both of these to be pullets. I was wrong. I have one of each.

    6 week old Easter egger pecking / attack older chicks / hens

    Cockerel or Pullet? 6wk BLR Wyandotte.

    Hey there! I have a 6 week old Blue Laced Red Wyandotte chick. First time raising this breed. Does it look like a cockerel or pullet? It stands upright a lot and herds other chicks. Its neck feathers are still coming in. Any chance it could be a female?
