Hello! I hatched a bunch of barnyard mix chickens. The dad is polish. The mom could be several different things for each of them. I had someone sex them at 1 week old, and was told they are hens. Do you agree? Do these 7 week chicks look like hens? I've listed them ABCD so it's easier to explain...
I know they are young just about 4 weeks but the guessing game is fun so do t come at me! the two with the combs have not changed in two weeks and the one with the slightly pink color in the sides of the hasn’t changed much as well. All had tail feathers fast, and are wild little chickies i love...
I hatched these little guys 3 months back and they’re the sweetest. I did the feather test with them when they were tiny and always thought the orange chick may be a cockrel while the dark ones are pullets but I’d like to see what others might think.
Hello!
I'm hoping that someone can provide me with some insight.
Last summer, I ordered 8 Splash Ameraucana eggs and incubated them - 1 hatched and is still alive. That chicken is now 6 months old and I am having a difficult time determining it's gender.
My other roosters, who are relatively...
Hey guys,
I hatched 5 chooks, 4 are definitely looking like roosters but this one I’m not sure about!
It’s 8 weeks old and I believe an olive egger.
Please help!
Hi everyone, hope you are all well. I am very confused about my two 10 week old saxony ducks (I bought a dozen mixed duck eggs of a breeder near me and only got one kind of duck, I was meant to get Cayugas and Watervales as well). Out of the dozen eggs i bought only 3 hatched… then when I let...
I keep silkies and recently got this one. Have them indoors for quarantine. Was told it was a hen and looks very hen like to me but recently started making this noise while im preparing it breakfast(youtube link). Its 12 weeks old hatched on halloween. I think it might be a rooster and I already...
So I was 100% sure that from our 6 egg hatch we had 3 pullets and 3 cockrels however as they get bigger I'm no longer 100% sure about 1.
This 'fella' has a much smaller comb and wattles plus 'his' tail feathers are WAY different to the definite roos but their bodies are all the same size. The...
Hi all,
I have 6 purebred Wyandotte, we’re trying to figure out which are Pullets and which are Cockerels.
The going theory is photos 1,2,4 are Cockerals and the Other 3 are Pullets
Thanks everyone
16 weeks old. Was sold as straight run. I see no comb development yet and have heard no crowing but I suspect cockerel. I currently have too many cockerels and we are working to pare them down quickly.
Photos include the blue Prairie Bluebell Egger from TSC and same age Starlight Green Egger...
The chicken I know as Kitty Foreman looks more and more like Red Foreman to me, but what do I know?
Red feathers are everywhere, including several tail feathers, so I am on the edge of my seat waiting for the next unfurling! What do you think? Kitty or Red?
Per the pinned thread, I have...
Meet Pincess Peach (white and brown) and Princess Daisy. We bought these lovely ducks from tractor supply from a straight run bin. So the genders were a mystery as well as breed. Though due to the feather curling up on Princess Peach I think we may have a Prince Peach and a Princess Daisy.
What...
Hello everyone so I have two call duck they are 9 weeks and I’m not sure when there supposed to get their male colors so does anyone notice if these two are getting male features or when they would cause I don’t know if they are male or female
Hi! We have five 8-week old chickens with an Easter Egger rooster and either an olive egger, cream legbar, silkie, or buff orpington hen. First time chicken mom and unsure how to sex them. I have my guesses but thought I’d ask for some help. Thank you!
#1 - either olive egger or cream legbar...
I have 3 silkies that are 8 months and it's my first time owning them. I have 2 that I were told are bearded silkies and one top knot silkie. I can tell that one for sure is male as he will Crow, make sounds for food and has tried to mate the top knot hen.
The one I'm confused about is the...
Hi everyone. I have 2 wynadottes that are roughly 14 weeks old. I’m just trying to sex them and am new to this so thought I would get some other opinions. Any help would be appreciated. I think they may be crossbred aswell. Thank you.
I have a bunch of Chickens that are a mystery mixed breed. Some cross between Barred Rock and something else.
Five Different Chickens. I think most of hens, however, a few are attempting to fight my dominate Rooster and I've never seen hens do that.
None of the 21 week old ones are laying yet...
