    Pullets or cockerels?

    Help! I have three (I hope) ladies around 2 months old that I'm questioning. The seller said the white one is a leghorn, but she is enormous and has grown much faster than the other two- her legs are quite large. Super docile and sweet in temperament. She has the reddest and largest waddle/comb...

    Help sexing my 6 week old chickens please

    I have 10 Easter Eggers, 1 barred rock, and 3 jersey giants. This is my first and probably last go at raising chicks. It has been a labor of love but I don’t think I can do this again. I tried to take some good shots of them to see if anyone can help me pick out what sex they are! Thanks so much!

    What do you guys think about new hampshire chickens? When I first started researching about chickens (to get ones myself) I've never heard of them. After the research I did for my blog, these girls are amazing! I put them second on my list. Great learning experience! Still happy with my choice...

    Silkie jersey giant cross hen or roo?

    Blue is my three-week-old Jersey Giant silkie cross. The mother is a purebred almost 10 lb Jersey Giant. The father is most likely my white purebred silkie rooster. Trying to figure out if blue is a potential rooster or hen. I already have two small roosters and a giant silkie rooster may not...

    Gosh dang is this a rooster?

    Well, I have 3 Jersey Giants. One male, and SUPPOSEDLY 2 hens. They are over a year old. I noticed the one hen had saddle feathers, it still sounds like a hen, and has NO spurs unlike the obvious male. The comb is small and pink. It NEVER crows, fights, or mounts anyone. It happily follows the...

    Jersey Giant?? Help me identify

    Hi all! About a year and a half ago I found a rooster on the side of the road, I live in Hawaii so it is extremely common but he seemed different. He was a sad little thing scratching the asphalt looking for food, I pulled over and he let me pick him up and that was that. Took him home to my...

    Sweetest Rooster, blue jersey giant w chocolate highlights- NE Massachusets

    "Teacup" is a gentle giant that I can no longer keep. He's just over one year old. Despite his size, weirdly, he always defers to other roosters. Hand raised, completely non-aggressive, yet very protective of the flock from predators. Size makes him pretty "hawkproof". Littleton MA, but...

    Hi!

    Another newbie here I live in Washington state. I have my first flock of (hopefully) 7 hens that were hatched around mid April. (Funny enough, I took the dive into raising chickens cause I was experiencing some empty nest syndrome) They're all still freeloaders. One Jersey Giant, three...

These chicks weren't planned, and as a result, I'm having some issues with them. They aren't mixing well with my very young chicks. They're also creating lot of dust, which is...
