    When does a rooster start to crow?

    I have a Dominicker rooster that has yet to crow. We bought him in April and it looks like he’s full grown, being that he is only slightly smaller than my older girls, but he hasn’t crowed at all yet? Is it still too early? He had the feathering of a male bird. I’ll attach a photo that was...

    Could my hen be a rooster?

    I have a Dominicker named Blueberry Michelle and recently I’ve noticed that her tail feathers have a curl or sickle shape to them. My mom says that some hens can have tail feathers like that and we hope she’s not a rooster cause we planned on only having chickens for eggs not breeding. If she is...

    Broken leg? Injury healed crooked.

    So this curious girl went through the fence with our speckled Sussex and got hurt. The Sussex looked like she was in bad shape so I isolated and took care of the wounds. She’s fine now. This girl only looked like she had a tiny nick on her leg and scrape on her back. Those both healed quick and...

    New and need help identifying sexes and breeds

    Hi all! I recently purchased seven chicks and its probably still a bit early to confirm sexes and breeds for sure but I'd appreciate any help you could provide on this! I know at least two chicks are not the breed we thought we bought, I now suspect they are Olive Eggers. The others I think...

    When do combs turn pink/red? Dominique

    I have two 4 week old dominiques. They were sold to me as female, and all the signs have pointed to them being female (shadowing on legs and feet, getting feathers quickly, uniform spot on head). I have noticed that one of them has a comb that is slightly bigger and getting more red than her...

    Need someone who can read barred head spots like tea leaves- Cream Legbar x Dominque chicks

    I thought, after a couple of hatches of Dominique chicks and then some Dominique crosses, I would be able to read head spots by now. However, these littles have me stumped. They're one day old from a Cream Legbar rooster over a Dominique hen. They all look the same & don't look very "spotty" to...

    Dominique pullet or cockerel

    Hello all! I have a couple of 4-week old Dominique chicks. I got them from a local feed store that told me they were all sexed to be pullets. I noticed some differences between my two Dominiques from the beginning and they are becoming even more pronounced. I was hoping to gain some insight...

    Chicken Eye Problem? I think an injury?

    Hi all! The first two pictures are her right eye on day one and day two. The last picture is her other eye ( I snapped a picture when she was sleeping ). I have been researching and keep coming back to an injury, but both of her eyes have problems which leads me to think it's an other issue...

    Egg bound cull, bruising??

    Hey y'all! Had a real bad egg bind today, she was too far gone by the time I got to her and hadn't been acting peculiar the previous day. I ended up having to cull her after working with her all day. When I plucked her she had bruising between her legs underneath her vent. When I cleaned her it...

    Dominique hens

    I have 2 ten week old Dominique hens and I was wondering how can you tell them apart from barred rocks? I also have 4 ten week old barred rocks. They all look the same to me I’m just waiting for the tails to grow out more.
