I have one 19 Week old Barred Rock, which I think is Rooster as it has arching tail feathers, but still has small comb, shouldn't roos at this age have a larger comb? Please see images.
I also have two 16 week old Barred Rocks, to which I have no clue whether they are male or female, I have...
Hi guys!
I have a blue australorp... he/she has always been bigger than the rest. Even my other roos.
It hasn't crowed or anything yet but my other roos have.
I figure it is a roo because the tail feathers have got longer.
Thanks!
My cousin recently give me five Easter egger and I'm new to the whole chicken thing. I've tried reading up one how to tell a hen from a roo, but in all honesty I'm more confused then ever. Can some one please share their opinion about what sex my chickens are? Any other tips would also...
so i was sold this young one at 3 weeks of age definitely looked pullet, now everyone is telling me she's a roo?
I'm not sure, wings don't look right and i dont see saddle feathers? Age is about 11 weeks.
This is Hermoine. I traded one of my baby roos for this one when she was about 8 weeks old. I was told she was a hen. She is now approximately 20 weeks old and to me she is looking more like a roo. What do you think? I have never had a cochin before so I'm not too familiar. I do have a cochin...

I just recently bought a silkie pullet yesterday but I’m not sure if she really is a pullet or if it might be cockerel. I’m also wondering around what age she might be?
Hi, we have two Barred Rock chicks, approximately 5 1/2 weeks old, and we are afraid we've been "roo-ed" again :( The one on the right has a much bigger comb and visible wattle than the other one. We have never had this breed before. Would love to hear opinions of the experts. TIA!
These are the two Pekin girls we got to replace our previous girl who turned out to be a boy.
They're around 17 weeks old now. The lavender one, Tiny Tornado, was very sick when she came. She had a respiratory disease which the vet treated with antibiotics. Then, as she got better, her comb and...

Hi! I have an about 11week old Golden Laced Polish chick, sold as a pullet. I thought hen for a while and this week I am pretty sure she is a he. Please let me know what you think. I live in the city and cannot have anyone crowing. Thank you!!
Hello!
I am a new chicken mom and kind of worried that one of my three Rhode Island Reds is a rooster. I’m honestly not even 100% sure that she is a Rhode Island Red because when we first got her nobody knew. She was cream colored with brown wings. Very different looking from the others (that’s...
Hey, so I am new to the mottled java breed and unsure if this is a roo or hen. I was told when "she" was a chick that she was a hen but I know that there is always that 50% chance they are wrong. The mottled java was raised with an Egyptian Fayoumi rooster who is defiantly a roo. They are the...
I have what i thought was(and still hope is) a hen. But today i got a very loud sound coming out of it. While it did not sound like a regular rooster crowing it was just very loud but sounded low and kind of gutteral like a peacock. Im new to this so im hopeing someone can tell me a bit about...
