Hello!
I am wondering if this chickie is a Petunia or a Petey and what breed they might be. I thought EE at first, but now I think Russian Orloff. Or mixed?! "Petunia" was a little chipmunk chick as a baby and is now about 14 weeks old. I figure I should know in the next few weeks, but I can't...
Hello! I'm new to BYC. I thought I would share some pictures of my four hybrid chicks that are about 5.5 weeks old, so you can enjoy guessing their genders and breeds with me. Parents are all pure breeds, and chicks are hybrids.
Chick 1:
Breed: Blue Andalusian and Ameraucana (only chick I know...
My two surprise chicks have arrived. They’re about 4 weeks now. I have some ideas on breed but would love some supportive confirmation. I have NO clue about the genders as I have never owned these breeds.
I think my first chick is a Columbian Wyandotte. I owned some Silver Wyandottes before and...
Hi! I'm here to introduce myself! At the same time, all those 90s kids recognize the phrase "who's that Pokemon?" While I introduced myself, I though I might play at identifying breeds and genders. Some I know, ;) some I don't:confused: but watch out! I'll try to trick you!
Now back to...
Hi everyone! Yes need help once again. I have 6, 11 week old chickens, 2 seem to be confirmed roosters. I’m not opposed to keeping one as we live in a country neighborhood, but I’m trying to determine exactly how many are roosters, and there is one more who seems “iffy”. From my extremely...
I got 2 brahma chicken. The shop owner said they are female but I'm not so sure about it. So can you guys help me determine the chicken gender? Thank you😄.
Hello Chicken Gurus!
I was wanting to check to see if anybody knew what breeds my chickens are. Also I’m thinking they are roosters but want to confirm. They are both about eight weeks old.
Almost 16 weeks old. Was bound and determined it was a pullet but it's been honking after the rooster crows and I think it's growing some skinny feathers near its tail.. sooo safe to assume it's a Cockerel?
This is our “house chicken” Batman. Her siblings were gotten by a predator one night and she/he is the only one to survive. Since then she/he has become a member of the family choosing to live inside with us and refuses to sleep anywhere but in our bed or with the children. She and the dog share...
Hello friends,
I have 4 Lakeshore Eggers and have read what little info is out there about them. Most articles say they are sexable at birth but I’ve read conflicting info that says it’s difficult to tell because of their mixed breed. All were supposed to be ladies, but I have one (for now) in...
I was given 4 baby chicks and since I am new to raising chickens can you please help me? I don’t know what breed or sex. They are 10 weeks old. I know I have a Silkie but not sure of gender. The other white chicken, I believe is a pullet and possibly Leghorn or Cornish Rock. I suspect my other...
I've bought them early March before the pandemic outbreak, the breeder misplaced the breeds, and I think he misplaced the genders too. I'm supposed to have a couple, one female Khaki Campbell and a male mallard; instead I got a possible male Khaki Campbell and a possible male Rouen. They bought...
I’ve have an 8 week old white Silkie and silver laced polish. What do you all think on the gender? The Silkie is the dominant one out of the bunch and started crowing a couple days ago. My brother said that his dominant hens crow in the mornings too. The Polish is very calm and not aggressive...
This bird has always been one of my friendlier birds. It usually runs out to greet me and jumps on my lap if I sit down. It's other hatch mate started crowing about 3 weeks ago and has a peacomb. Both have tuft cheeks.
Bird is 12 weeks old and pretty quiet.
No rust colour on its body but a...
First off Nellie was supposed to be a *Wellsumer* hen. Nellie is NOT a Welsummer chicken at all.
And now, it’s starting to look like Nellie May be a Roo and not a Hen as those saddle feathers seem to be parting and dripping down the sides and the comb is turning red when my other chicks are all...
Hi Everyone,
I am brand new to raising chickens, brand new to this site, and this is my first post so please be gentle.
I incubated a mixed bunch of eggs and they hatched on March 22nd, so they are now 9 weeks old. The only information I was given about the eggs was that any five toed chicks...
