    4 month old Mystic Onyx mix, Hen or Roo???

    I got this bird as an egg from a local lady, she says the dad was a Mystic Onyx (with a bright red comb??) and not sure about the mom but she has some black sex link hens. 4 month old now, crows every morning but is a gentle giant. I can’t keep it if it keeps crowing :( Hen or Roo???

    Help! Big nosed Ameracauna chicks. Hen or rooster?

    Hey there! I got some new Splash Ameracauna chicks the other day and I'm having a hard time telling if they are male or female. They are approximately 4 weeks old. Their beaks and nostrils look abnormally large to me but maybe that's just the breed. What do you guys think? Chick 1 Chick 2

    Almost 13 week old Ameraucana- hen or roo?

    I’d love to know what you all think. This chicken isn’t acting differently than the others in our 6 chicken flock - like the others, she’s very mellow - but (s)he’s a lot larger than the others. We have two Ameraucanas but they’re dramatically different sizes (the other is much smaller). Also...

    Hen or Roo Guesses? 😅

    Hey! 🙂 Back with everyone’s fav game, hen or roo! Haha. I got these EE’s and a surprise EE/Silkie cross, they are 7-8 weeks. Thinking the silver EE is a roo, the one dark EE is a roo and the other dark EE is a hen. Not sure about the white silkie cross (Slim Shady is their name 🤣). Thanks in...

    Gender Guess on Buff Brahma Bantam

    This one is about 6 weeks old. Buff Brahma Bantam. Any ideas on sex? I have one already that is for sure a pullet. This one just has a darker comb and wattles coming in. Thanks in advance :)

    2 silver laced 9wk wyandottes that have combs but very different from each other, roo?

    These two are stumping me. I've read conflicting sexing info regarding hackle feather shape, wattles and combs and I'm questioning if they are both roos because of this or just one of them or neither. One has rounder hackle feathers and a flat comb area with a wattle and they are very pink...

    We were given a bunch of mixed breed chickens so we have no ideas on breed but we’re having a hard time sexing them so any help would be greatly appreciated! They’re around 3 months old

    Thorin confuses me...

    This is Thorin, the 18 week old EE. Thorin confuses me. S/he has never crowed or danced, but also is much more standoffish than his hatch mates that are hens... He is not colored like any of the other EEs i have either, hen or roo.... So.... Cockerel or pullet?

    Whelp. I asked before but 90% sure I got a Roo. Pics.

    Attaching a pic at the end of my Ameraucana lavender hen, but the splash pretty sure turned out to be a roo. The pea comb is getting darker, and my kids found him mounting a hen today — 14 weeks old. That splash is a roo, huh 😞 I can’t have roosters where I live. Such a beautiful bird too! Am...

    Hen or Roo? 5+ Month Old Cochin Bantam

    Hi! I purchased this chicken today as a hen. I’m not expert, and of course, I’m one that can’t have a Roo because I’m in the city limits. I was told she was a Porcelain Cochin Bantam around 5-5.5 months old. What do you guys think?

    Easter Eggers, pullets or late bloomers?

    I’ve got two suspicious looking 15 week old birds here and I’d love to hear your thoughts. These birds were raised by a hen, I am not sure what breeds they are mixed with. I got them at 12 weeks and they are now nearly 16 weeks. There has been no fighting or crowing but they are both at the...

    (2) almost 12w old Whiting True Blues. Roos?

    First 3 pictures are Chicken #1, last 3 pictures are chicken #2. They will be 12 weeks on Saturday. I picked them out SR, out of the 4 I picked out these two look and act a bit differently. The other two have much more obvious rounded tail feathers and a single comb. These two have 3 rows on...

    12 week old Silkies. Hen or Roo?

    I have 3 silkie chickens that are so different! First pic is Bluey, I’m 99% sure this is a hen. She has no comb, no streamers, and just seems like a hen. Picture #2 is Coconut. I’m 100% sure he is a Roo. HUGE comb and has streamers. And he has been crowing for maybe 3-4 weeks now. Super cute...

    Help Me ID My 6 Week Olds

    Howdy! First time chicken lady here, I’ve got a small flock of 5 that are 6 weeks old I believe. I know for sure one is a roo (not pictured) but I’m wondering about my other 4. I also need some breed help with numbers 1 & 4, number 1 is supposedly a Olive Egger and number 4 is supposed to be a...

    A Game of Hen or Roo? - 9 Week Old Silkies

    So, I still consider myself a new chicken mom even though we've had 4 hens for a year now. They were super easy, laid back gals and still are. However.... when we added 4 silkies to our flock... I started having ALL the questions. One of those questions is the same as every other silkie...

    Meet the flock + need your help on roo watch!

    Hello all, new chicken mama Cassie here. I ordered 11 pullets from MMH that are now almost a month old, so of course I am now playing the paranoid “pullet or cockerel??” game. I thought I’d introduce the ladies and see if any of you experienced eagle-eyes notice something I hadn’t, especially if...

    Barred Rock Roo’s?

    Pretty sure I know the answer but always good to get another’s opinion. They’re almost 5 weeks old but have pretty prominent bright combs and wattles already coming in. One seems to be getting more tail feathers like my buff orpington ladies. One cockerel we can handle but two I’m sure will lead...
