    Are these silkie male streamers?

    Are these male streamers on our 13 week old silkie? They’re not really longer than the other feathers but I’m nervous 😬 I figured I could get ahead of the game and arrange a home for him before he crows bc my neighbors will NOT be pleased (plus we’re not allowed roosters where we live) if he...

    Update -- sexing "production reds"?

    Hi everyone, we posted here about a month ago asking about sexes of our chickens that were labeled as production reds from TSC. They're about 1.5-2 months old now and would like your opinions again. One is obviously a starlight green egger (below), which we believe is a pullet. Can anyone help...

    Pullet or cockerel?

    Good morning! I recently started my own little flock. I wish I had done better about which breeds I got but I only remember a few. It's always fun to think you'll remember something and then realize that you don't! At any rate I do know that I have two Rhode Island reds, two amerucanas, to cream...

    A Craigslist Mystery - Blue Sapphires? Sussex?

    I bought three pullets from a local--a classic Craigslist deal that listed them as pullet hens. The seller said they're two blue sapphire Plymouth rocks and one silver laced sussex. They're around 6 weeks old. When comparing them to photos online, I'm not so sure. What do y'all think? One of the...

    Barred Rock Cockerel or Pullet?

    My 2 Barred Rocks are about 8-10 weeks old and they look quite different. The first 4 pictures are Francis and the last 4 pictures are of Jet. I’m thinking Francis is a cockerel but the coloring is the same as Jet, so that’s really throwing me off. What do you think? Thank you!

    Is this a female?

    Hi. Does this look like a girl? Seems a bit larger than the others and sometimes I see the tail feathers pointing a bit downward…although my girls do that sometimes too. ‘She’ is about 7 weeks old now. Thank you!

    3 cockerels in NE FL- Middleburg outside of Jax

    3 jerk cockerels- they’re actually great roosters, but hate me. They do a great job protecting their girls and finding tasty treats for them. I just have too many and am combining all my hens into 2 runs with only 2 roos. Jethro is an Ayam Cemani- this is a rare fibromelanistic breed (the rarest...
