    Hen or rooster

    I’m super stressed , this one has crowed around 83o in the morning I have no idea how old or if it’s a hen or rooster, and I don’t like the idea I have to give pearl up. I live in the city where you can’t have roosters. Any ideas of age or hen or rooster? Thanks in advance!

    What breed is this? TSC label error? And gender?

    I bought these two chicks as “Cuckoo Marans” from TSC. 🧐 I’m guessing Sapphire Gems or something similar? Also, the combs are still super duper small but are those red waffles coming in strong trying to tell me something? Nearly 6 weeks old. Any guesses for gender and breed?

    Cockerel or Pullet Barred Rock

    I got this chicken from a swap advertised as a hen. It was born in early December. So far I haven’t heard any crowing, but her tail feathers are looking very full. I also think I see some tiny saddle feathers coming in (maybe like an inch long?). I was also told after the fact that barred rock...

    First time chicken owner. My chickens are 15 weeks old now. I’m pretty positive it’s a hen, however, this one has been fighting since I put it outside. There’s no comb development yet and no crowing. All my silkie Roos have combs and have crowed already. Thoughts?? Is she just trying to...

    13 week Black Copper Marian - Rooster?

    This is Barbara. We purchased her as a pullet when she was 3 weeks old. We started to have our doubts a couple weeks ago, and are wondering if she may be a rooster. Hoping some of you more experienced chicken keepers can share your opinions.

    Whiting True Blue Hen or Rooster?

    This chick is 6 weeks old. I’m wondering about the feathers along the neck. Does that determine if it’s a rooster? Or do hens sometimes have pointed feathers there? Very sweet bird. No other male behavior or crowing (yet?)

    Hi! New member and new chicken owner. My 2 Australorps will be 7 weeks tomorrow. We purchased them both from a local farm. Lucy (or Lou) has the beginnings of a red comb and a red waddle.

    Ruth or Rufus, That is the Question. RIR Hen or Rooster?

    My family and I are new to chickens and we were told that our Rhode Island Red was a hen, but we’re not so certain now. She/he is approximately 14 weeks old and hasn’t crowed or anything, but is bigger than our other hens and has a much larger comb/wattles. If you have a guess, we’d love to hear it!
