    Hen or rooster?

    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...

    Is my Mottled Java a hen or roo?

    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...

    Hen or roo

    hello, this is amara. We bought it as a hen and are now feeling not so sure. Any guesses? I think our amara turned into an amaROO.

Also, for like 3 weeks or so she has been missing a bunch of feathers. Her entire underside looks naked and under her wings. About a week ago she was in a...

    Hen or Roo?

    OK ladies and gents, is this a hen or a roo? Please forgive the awkward way I'm holding it, lol. This poor little thing is the runt, 12 days old. Let's just say I had a very bad first incubating experience, only two survivors.... it's only half the size of the other one that was born 12 hours...

    Cuckoo silkie

    so I am looking at buying this cuckoo but have heard about the spot. I was told a bright white spot means it’s a boy and faded smaller spot means girl. Is this a boy? I already have a cuckoo roo so I wouldn’t be able to keep the little guy if it were.

    Crowing hen?

    I’ve raised 2 Buff Orpingtons, who live with my 3 hens. They’re 6 months old now. One is definitely a rooster: big red comb and wattle, crowing, longer straighter tail feathers. The other looks like a hen, but I’ve witnessed her crowing. Not clucking or being proud of an egg: convincing...

    This is my four month old bantam Cochin. I assume it is a rooster, but thought I'd clarify with the nice people on BYC:)
