My chicks finished hatching a day ago and this little chonker is definitely a polish mix (my rooster is a Silver Laced Polish) but I have no idea who their mama is! They hatched out of a jumbo light brown egg, and have a single comb! No extra toes/feathered legs. My Austra White is the most...
I saw allot of people having trouble identifying their ducklings so I am making these to help, more will slowly be added as I go through them feel free to ask about other breeds or tag the charts with the breed of ducklings are on them to help others, feel free to add info and make suggestions I...
I received a game hen from my neighbor who moved and could not take the hen with him to his new house due to HOA, I’m not sure what breed she is and all he told me was that it was a brown game hen. I googled it and could not find anything on that, but I could it be a Kelso, Albany, or even a...

I know I have 2 Hens and 4 Roosters. Can someone specifically identify my new beauties? Breed and color patterns? Is there anything special I need to do with them or are they just typical backyard chicken maintenance? I have them in the same pen as my Rhode Island Reds. I have 5 Hens and 2 Roos...
Hi, All!
I have some roosters that I've quarantined over the past weekend on account of needing to decide whether to sell for breed, or butcher. They're pretty birds, but they're lousy hen-keepers! They peck the hens away from the feed and essentially bogart any food they come across. I have...
Hi all, first time we’ve ordered instead of buying whatever TSC has in store. I wanted a few choice breeds but also some adventure in some. So can you help me ID them. I’ve provided multiple poses to help. Of course I know the 2 I chose (4th photo) but not sure about the grab bag ones/(assorted...
We just got two adorable little additions to our flock and we are not sure what they are. I just can't wait to see what they turn out to be! Anyone have any idea what they are? The one with the dark beak has black fluff under it's yellow fluff and the underside of it's beak is half black and...

In April I had bought what I thought were two white leghorns at TSC but this last week one started laying eggs and it for sure laid a brown egg because I witnessed it happen and it's the only one laying in my flock of six. They are about 18 or 19 weeks old, tell me what you think they might be...
I just recived some chicks from My Pet Chicken.
My sister wanted some "mystery chicks" so I got 2 random females from a Rare Breed assortment.
I need help figuring out what chicks these are!!
This is quoted from My Pet Chicken site
"Your assortment is likely to be drawn from the following...
I need help figuring out what in the world this thing is. I had originally assumed him to be a Wheaten Ameracauna, but he doesn't have any tuft/beard and his feather pattern isn't right. It's possible he's a mutt, we got him at an auction, but I wanted to see if maybe his breed just wasn't in...
Hi so I have these Polish chickens and have just read that it's easier to tell the sex based on the head fluff shape before they get their feathers. So I'm going to share some one day old images in the hope that some one with some experience might spot some clues. Pullets or Cochins? There are 4...
I stepped outside in the front porch and found this little guy slithering around. I can tell it’s not venomous or bad but I just wanted to know what type of snake it is?
Does it pose a threat to my chickens? I have 3 very small hens (one is about the size of a pigeon). I got a few pics of him...
Can someone one identify what color this chicken's feathers would be classified as? He/She is either an Easter Egger or Olive Egger, but I have never seen a color pattern quite like it.
Hi all,
Long-time reader, first time poster here. A colleague dropped off these four chicks indicating they were silkies. I only see that trait in their furry feet. Speaking of which 4 not 5 toes on these.
I'm told there were picked up from TSC about 6 weeks ago. I see TSC has mixed silkie...
My neighbors chicken “disappeared” a few weeks ago. She reappeared a few days ago with twelve chicks. My husband and I have been taking about getting chickens but nowhere near us is able to sell. (California Poultry ban. We are outside the quarantine zone. But everywhere that would sell can’t)...
I need help identifying these chickens.
The darker brownish red one I got as a "sex-link" from my local Atwoods, and the 3 brighter redish orange chickens I got from a friend.
I just want to know what breed they are.
