Hey everyone!
Got my shipment of chicks in. I did have 2 pass away before they got to the store but I also got a mystery chick inside. I’m assuming it’s an Easter Egger chick. What do you’ll think. (Excuse the nails)
Thanks!!!
Have six total mystery chicks — can anyone help me identify their breeds? I have zero info on who they might be!!
Thank you!!!
Some helpful hints:
Chick no. 1 is primarily dove grey
Chick no. 2 is yellow and ginger
Chick no. 3 is a red-brown chipmunk pattern (with pink legs?)
Chick no. 4 is...
Is my 4-week old baby a Welsummer or a Light Brown Leghorn? I believe I have narrowed it down to those two. She was chipmunk as a baby. I do not have another of these breeds for comparison. I know I should wait for her earlobes, but I am antsy!
Thank you!!

I see this is a fairly common question, but I've got a picture and anyone with more experience is welcome to school me! I'm leaning toward Brahma because of the big eyebrows, but I'm not sure if that's a pea-comb or not? Also the coloring seems lighter than I see on most...
I've been raising...
These are my ladies honey bun and rice cake :) they were given to me by my uncle who couldn’t care for them and they were given to him from someone who couldn’t keep chickens on their property, I have NO idea what they are as Im just a beginner chicken keeper so idk about breeds and such, anyone...
This is my rooster Captain Milo, I hatched him and 5 other chicks from eggs which was given to me. He is about 6th months old, a very gentle boy and so handsome! Thing is I have no idea what breed he is. The other 5 chickens I have already identified, but not him. The farm which I got the eggs...
I am new to true blues! They are simaler to easter eggers/americaunas, etc. in the sense that they come in many colors and variations. I purchased them from McMurray hatchery. I narrowed down my mystery chick down to one of these three....Can you help me? Which 2 are true blues and which one is...
These round, white eggs appeared on my window a couple days ago. At least, I am assuming they are eggs. :confused: Does anyone know what they are from or what they will hatch into? They are very tiny (each less than a millimetre), and there are 47 of them. Here is the best picture I could get of...
I’ve had this boy for over two years now. I believed he was perhaps a Faverolle for the longest time but he doesn’t have the extra toe. What do you think he could be? A Faverolle or something else? His name is Crowe. He’s the sweetest thing. Never pecked or flogged us or my one year old. Never...
Hello everyone,

I have the Zip wing bands on my seven birds and think I'll add adjustable leg bands for an easier ID; those wing bands are pretty hard to read on a fully feathered bird. Additionally, I'm stamping the year into my leg band for an easier time aging.
I'm thinking of using toe punches or different...
We got 4 ducks from TS and they don't know breeds I would love help if anyone know.
1 is brown colored with darker brown feet tail and a mohawk I'm kind of stumbled by this one.
1 black and yellow with white butt (my guess was black Swedish).
2 yellow with pink feet and beaks (my guess was pekin).
Received the brown egg layer bundle from McMurray and need help identifying the breeds. They are 5 weeks on Tuesday. Three of the chicks don't match any others, so I'm wondering if I got a few different exotics plus the brown egg layers. These pics are the three that aren't like any others.

Hi friends, so today marks 13 weeks of our 6 chicken flock. We have 2 of each breed: Olive Egger, Black Laced Red Wyandotte and Blue Plymouth Rock. Chico, BPR roo has been crowing since about 6-7 weeks. We have one neighbor who is not too happy and complained, all the other neighbors think he’s...
We have 5 little ducklings. The yellow one is a pekin, we hatched her ourselves. According to the person we got them from, the other yellow and 2 darks are anconas. She said the odd duck out was supposed to be a ancona, but she thinks may be a silver appleyard. Anyone more familiar with these...
i Have 4 chickens that I brought as eggs from ebay. I now have 4 different looking chicks and I would love to know what breeds they are to properly take care off them.
any help grateful
Hello eveyone :) i purchased three bantam chicks a while ago and i am having a hard time sexing and identifying them. The seller said the were “yard bantam crosses”
Im hoping they are all pullets. They are about 5 or 6 weeks old i believe.
There is one that seems to be a barred bantam, one that...
My bird is almost 12 weeks old. Black with a blue green sheen to its feathers. Black legs. No real tail growth. Quiet and keeps to itself.
What is it?
And please tell me it's a pullet? I'm practically running a bachelor pad right now 🙄
Hi! I’m pretty new to raising chicks. I got a few from tractor supply about two weeks back. I know what some are but then there’s these one which I’m not 100% about. Especially the one with the crazy feathers going everywhere
