    Getting any roo vibes from this flock?

    All are supposed to be pullets, and a few are a day or two older than the others. I’m suspicious of a couple of the lavender orpingtons so I’m wondering what others think. Orpingtons are about 7 weeks, Diamond Duchesses are about 6 weeks. Purchased at Family Farm & Home. All very sweet and sociable.

    Lavender Orpington: Did I get a cockerel?

    I got my Lavender Orpington chicks on Feb 28th from my local family feed store. They're supposed to be sexed and all hens but I'm wondering if this one is actually a cockerel? Between the attitude, with this one willing to post up* with the other 4 week old cockerels, the comb is much more...

    new/old chicken owner intro

    Hello BYC, thought I'd finally drop in and say "hello". 1. Yes, I'm new to raising chickens (got our first flock members in March of 2022), but old to raising chickens since my family & I did when I was a kid like 20 years ago. 2. We (husband & I) have 20 chickens right now. 2 roosters & 18...

    Lavender Orpington rooster crosses

    Hi all, I ended up with 4 roosters from the Lavender Orpington bin at TSC and one of them is just such a sweet boy I'm thinking of keeping him. I have a mixed flock and I'm curious if anyone has any experience with crossing a LO rooster with any of the following: - white cochin - black cochin...

    Is my "Luna" actually a "Leonard"?

    Went to a swap at the end of March and picked up several chicks that were supposed to be sexed as pullets. They were very young at that point and I am a first time chicken momma so I didn't know one way or another. I had another chicken momma there who was selling vent sex them for me since she...

    6.5 week old Lavender Orpington- hen or roo???

    This is Penelope Featherington and my kids are super worried about her giant tail! This is our first time with chicks and our other two are a blue sexlink and a black australorp so we don't have other orpingtons to compare to side by side. What do you guys think? Too early to tell? Hen? Roo?

    Chonky Boy (?) the Lavender Orpington Chick

    Hello! I have 4 2-week-old Lavender Orpington chicks in the brooder. These are hatchery chicks (Hoover's, I believe) we found at a local farm store in the straight run bin. One had splayed legs, and one had a severe pasty butt. So by no means do I expect that these babies are to breeder...

    So these two are about 2 weeks old. I know it is still super early, but wanted to get some feedback. I have ordered a roo just in case both of these are pullets and the roo chick is set to come the first week in April. So here is my observation qt. Between these two, their wing development is...

    Hi all, What do you think?? He or she?? There are 2 Lavender Orpingtons, 1 Black Copper maran, and 1 Buff Orpington. They are all the same age, approximately 2 weeks old. The Lavender Orpingtons are pullets, according to my grandma. What do you think about the other two?

    What will I get?

    Didn’t know where to put this, so I’m just guessing on this side of BYC, but I have a Lavender Orpington hen, and a Easter Egger roo that looks like a Wheaten Ameraucana, with like, a lavender laced chest and stuff, I’d send a pic if I could only get one 🤣. And obviously they mated, and she’s...

    HELP!!! Is this a rooster!?!?!

    I bought bin chicks that were supposed to be guaranteed female but after some research I believe I may have picked a rooster. I am not allowed to have a rooster in my area so I am trying to figure it out quickly and get it a new home if needed. I’ve had it for 12 weeks.

    Pullet or Cockerel? Lavender Orpington Edition

    This is Violet but I’m thinking she might be a Vi Guy instead. Pullet or cockerel? 9-10 week old Lavender Orpington. She (he?) has a large comb but she has very short tail feathers so I’m not sure. Tail feathers not shown, sorry! Not crowing or mating yet like her 9-10 week old Polish cockerel...
