    12wk Hen or Roo??

    Is this 12wk old a pullet or cockerel? Not showing any rooster tendencies at all, no crowing, not dominant. Acts more like a pullet by being a bit more shy, my other roosters at this age were friendly. The comb/wattles are larger than my others.

    4.5 week old Gold Laced Wyandotte- boy or girl(s)??

    Hi all! I got a second round of chicks about a month ago & included in that bunch were 2 Gold Laced Wyandottes. I am thinking that the one who's comb is a bit more red might be a roo, although am really hoping that's not the case. I wouldn't mind having a rooster, but we're within city limits so...

    Lavender Orpington - Lazy, or something wrong with legs?

    Hi folks-- I have a lovely 11-week old Lavender Orpington pullet (Princess Kay). She gave me a bit of a scare early on when she was just a week or two old, not seeming able to stand for more than a minute at a time. I splinted her for splay leg, as well as gave her extra supplements (poultry...

    could it be, she’s a he?

    these babies were hatched may 24th, making them ~33 days. out of the 7, 4 are confirmed males, while 2 are confirmed females. this one in particular is odd to me- she has had very quick feather development like another cockerel, is large and slender-bodied like the other cockerels, and is...

    I've tried looking at everyone's posts and looking up the anatomy of a rooster, but I still have no idea what I'm looking for. Help? Prepare for picture overload! Let's start out with this cuteness. Heat wave and still wanting to cuddle. I've posted when they were younger, and now I...

    Why is her comb so dark?

    I have a pullet who is a ‘Midnight Majesty Marans’, but her comb is way darker than her two ‘sisters’ combs. They have a reddish comb, but she has a pitch black comb still. She is 16 weeks old, and hatched in early February. I included a picture. Any good ideas on what could be going on?

    12 week pullet laying?

    I currently have 1 pullet and 2 cockerels and I was watering their grazing boxes and I came across what looked like egg shells. It was just a few pieces and they were very thin. I have no idea how since everything I’m reading says they shouldn’t lay until they’r about 4 months and she’s about...

    Pullet or Cockerel? Blue Olive Egger

    Hello! I would love your guesses on whether my lovely Blue Olive Egger is a pullet or a roo. He or she is exactly 4 weeks old, most likely a Copper Maran and an Ameraucana mix. Purchased as a pullet from Ideal Poultry. Comb is very light pale pink, no signs of wattle at the moment. Thanks in...

    hey guys, I wanted some input as to what gender this chicken is. They were supposed to be sexed but I’m beginning to question my Australorp. She’s the most vocal of all 8 chickens. I have some mystic marans and barred rocks as well. But my Australorp is the loudest and is attempting to crow I...

    Pullet suddenly weak, stumbling. Vitamin deficiency or is it worse?

    My largest pullet is about 5 months old, an easter egger. One week ago I noticed her stumbling and tripping over her own feet. Her legs seem to have gotten weaker, and she has a hard time walking without falling over. Her tail is sometimes drooping, sometimes upright. Only possible trigger I can...
