This is Bam Bam. BB was hatched a week before Easter and is just a little bantam mix. BB is staying no matter what gender. We are just curious as first time chicken owners. So hen or roo? Thank you!
I bought these chicks a few weeks ago and should be about the same age(around 6 weeks). I noticed some of the chicks are already getting quite red combs. Are those the boys? I know some might be too young to tell but appreciate any guesses to what they might be. Does anyone know what breeds...
First time chicken keeper here. We have 6 hens from our local farm store, 4 standard/big girls (Cochin, Faverolle, Orpington, Easter Egger) and 2 littles (Bantam Cochin who ended up being frizzled, silkie) - all 5 weeks old.
I'm worried that the bantam cochin is a rooster, which could leave...
Hi yall. attached are photos of 4.5 week old bobtail cochin bantam chicks. i’ve never raised this breed before and was wondering if any of you guys could help me figure out their sex! they’re almost fully feathered and i’ve started to see a little comb+waddle development. any ideas are appreciated!
The women we got the eggs from just confirmed that this chick is probably a fibro easter egger mix (a breed we didn’t know she had so we were confused about the chickens black comb) anyway this chick is six weeks old and I can’t see any redness of the comb because of it’s comb being all black. I...
Any idea on breeds or gender? Thanks

Hello peeps!
It’s still too early to know for sure, but take your guesses! Little boys or girls?
5 week old frizzle bantam cochins from the Rural King mystery bantam bin.

This is the 1st time I have chickens and I've been watching and searching online to learn if this is a hen or a rooster.
The flock is 4 months old. This chicken started to doodle a few times a day but started later in age than what online says so I was thinking maybe it's a hormone imbalance hen...
Hi there! First time posting.
He is looking rough I know.
I have no experience with chickens or turkeys but here's my story. I went to Cal ranch and saw a bird at the bottom of the cage getting stepped on and look like he was going to die. I asked if they could take him out and separate him...
Hey all, chicken newbie here. I have two chicks that hatched at my daughters school, they were born april 2nd (we got to watch our mystery chick hatch) and are now 8 weeks. One I'm pretty confident is a black star/sex link pullet, the other is ???? Sassy.
Sass started all yellow/white, and a...
Hi all,
I’d love a second opinion on one of my chicks. I ordered a batch of pullets hatched on April 15, but my Black Australorp is looking very suspicious at just over 5 weeks old.
He/she has:
A noticeably larger, redder comb than the others
Wattles starting to develop already
Slower...
I have two silkies. One black and one white. I originally swore the black was a male based off of the stance it had always had but I’m not so sure. This white one is much smaller but the hair is different. It also has a much deeper cluck lol. My poor black one has pretty bad cross beak, but has...
After losing my previous flock to a hawk around three years ago I finally was able to get new chicks and a new coop. They’re supposed to be a Dominque and a Rhode Island Red and I hope they’re both girls or that only one is a boy as I only need one rooster
I got them around a week or so ago at...
Hello! We are new to having backyard chickens and very unsure about this particular chicken! It is a Sapphire Gem- around 10-11 weeks old! Unsure if it is a hen or roo? I tried to add multiple photos from multiple angles! Thank you so much in advance!
This little lady(hopefully) is my favorite of the bunch. She is 4 almost 5 weeks old. I am starting to fear that she might be a he just because the comb. What do you think?
Please ignore our under construction coop space.
Hello chicken people!
It’s too early to tell for sure, but take your guesses! Is my six week old porcelain duccle a hen or a roo?
