    6-week old Wyandotte and Sapphire Gem: Cockerels or Pullets?

    Hi all. I recently bought my first batch of chicks. They were all "sexed pullets," but I know that isn't a guarantee. I would like help determining the sex of two that I'm a bit suspicious of. I have looked at so many sources and gotten so much contradicting information. These all came from...

    POL Pullet starting to prolapse

    This morning I noticed my 39 week pullet acting a little off with white poop on her backside. I checked in again a few hours later and could see red. Immediately caught her and confirmed she was starting to prolapse. A quick perusal of threads in the forum (I was about to leave) led me to give...

    faverolle/olive egger i swear its a boy

    this is jojo, my salmon faverolle/olive egger mix. the other two chicks that hatched with it are obviously male: (the two other boys… left is jojo’s full blooded sibling, another faverolle/olive egger, and the right is a faverolle light brahma mix) but jojo stumps me. i think the comb is big...

    Sexing silkies

    I am curious to know what you may think about our newest silkie chicks! Trying to hedge bets on “pullet or roo” guesses. Three chicks in question, the youngest (dark partridge?), black juvenile, and slightly older white splash. I included more pictures of the splash since that’s the one I am...

    Today 1/2/26 - 6 month old Brahma wobbly/down

    Went out this morning and found her sitting/semi-squatting on the floor of the coop. Falls forward if we try to stand her up. Skin temp is warm. Has not started laying. Vent area normal, belly feels okay, don't feel a stuck egg or the like. No obvious other symptoms - no wounds, clear...

    Leaking yolk

    Hey all, one of my EE's has started to lay. The first egg had no shell or was extremely soft shelled. It was broken when I found it. She's since laid 3 perfect eggs. I just went out and checked on the coop and she's laid another shell-less/soft shelled egg and there is yolk on their ladder to...

    Lavender easter egger tail giving cockerel vibes 😂

    Hi all, I have 11 total 6/7 and 5/6 week old chicks and most of them I'm starting to be able to tell who is who, we've got a lot of rounded tail and hackle saddle feathers coming in but this lavender Easter egger is giving me a little bit of trouble. She's 6 weeks old almost 7 weeks old now at...

    Does anyone have a pullet/hen available that they're willing to ship?

    I live in a town with a 4 hen limit and unfortunately my sweet hatchery Salmon Faverolles unexpectedly dropped dead a few weeks ago :( I need something started since I only have one spot in my flock, but I've been having a heck of a time finding a pullet at this time of year. I live in Los...

    6 month old Pullet stopped laying

    Hello all! I know questions like this are pretty common but I still wanted to ask in my own way. I have 6 pullets. 2 EEs I bought in March, other 4 (OE and 3 Marans) were bought in late May. They were separate until late September when I managed to integrate them successfully. Up until that...

    New pullets are constantly eating

    Hi there, I have a free-range flock who spend most of their time in the yard foraging but have free access to their coop where I have chicken feed available to them. It’s normal to see a chicken go inside the coop to have a snack and then head back outside to find a worm. Three days ago I...

    Pullet head tilted/twisted with violent shakes

    1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.) A paduan, age not known, doesnt feel lighter or thinner than her/his siblings. 2) What is the behavior, exactly. Head is constantly tilted to the left. Sonetimes completely flipped...

    Help with chicken!

    My chicken is paralyzed from both legs and now she is struggling to drink and eat. She also has ongoing seizures and now her crop moves when she’s eating. I have to hold her down or else she will flap her wings everywhere where she can’t control herself. Any ideas?

    Help! My chicken could have a broken neck!

    This morning when I let out the chickens, I found my Brahma chicken lying on the ground. She cannot walk (when she tries, she falls over continually and panics) and her neck and head keep falling to her chest. Also, the right side of her face is bruised and marked.

    Definitely think I have two Roos

    Update on my flock! So I definitely think I have two JG cockerels.. all the chickens pictured are 12 weeks old. I have 11 hens.. will I likely have to rehome one?

    Do I have two Roos???

    Mildly concerned two of the ten girls I got this spring are not in fact girls. I got three jersey giants, and I’m adding pictures of the three of them side by side. We also have one confirmed crower 😅

    20 week chickens pellets or hens?

    I still don’t know their gender! There hasn’t been any crowing, Piper even had vent gleet and expelled what may have been egg material, Piper and Neutral are both vocal and do peck sometimes for food and Pecky is on the bottom for the hierarchy. I included a bunch of photos hoping that would...

    Thoughts

    Anyone have any experience with a pullet maturing faster than the rest. She or at least I think it's a she has no wattles, no shanks, and no crowing but her comb is definitely more than a pale pink, especially compared to the others. The comb started changing about a week and a half ago. For...
