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
I know we get a bunch of these every day and I never thought I’d be one of them but I need some help identifying these new chicks. I went to the store to get some gate hinges and came out with three chicks, the girl working seemed like she was having trouble identifying them and they were the...
I was wondering if you all could help me identify these two 3 week old chicks.
Possibly welsummer for this one?
Not sure for this one. At the very top of her head there is a slight reddish/brownish tint to the feathers.
Shortly after purchasing our 8 chicks, I lost the little slip of paper in which I wrote down the specific breeds we purchased. Alas, I am unable to find this breed anywhere online using images. Thankfully I can easily tell what the other two breeds areI (we own 8 total).
Please help! (This one...
Help! This sweet babe is about two weeks old (?) and I bought her as an Asian Black pullet. Thoughts on that identification being true? Looks nothing like the other Asian Black pullet I bought.
Hi! I’m looking for help identifying my assorted bantams.
here’s my thoughts...
Chick #1 - 4 weeks old. Solid White Old English Game Bantam? Roo or Hen?
Chick #2 - 1 week old I believe. Mille Fleur D’Uccle?.... or at least I hope.... bc of the dots on wings and the super feathery feet...? We...
I’ve seen from other posts that it is possible for anconas to be completely white. Here is my question:
What is going on with this duckling? Totally yellow when hatched,? Now feathering out darker from the tail forward. Is this a mutation or normal color
Background information: parents are...
I bought three ducklings at TSC and no idea what they are. the mostly brown one I assume is probably a khaki Campbell, and the black and yellow is maybe a black swedish? but I'm not sure what the brown and yellow could be, are there brown swedish ducks? it's not of huge importance to know, I've...
