    12 Week old Blue Australorp?

    Hello, I purchased this Blue Australorp from a local farm 2 days ago. She was listed as 12 weeks old, but to me she looks very small for 12 weeks. These pictures were taken when I got her. Does she look 12 weeks old? Thank you 😊

    6 Week Silver Laced Wyandottes

    These may be too young to tell yet, but I figured I’d post anyway because there are drastic differences between the two, and they were hatched from the same parents, the same day! Chick 1 is the red chick, whom I have a sneaking suspicion is a rooster. Hence, the red box. This chicken stands...

    Introducing a New Group of Pullets

    Hello All - I'm looking for some guidance... We started off with four chicks back in March, three of which ended up being roos. We got rid of two of the roos a couple of weeks ago and got a group of six pullets (around 7 or 8 weeks) that have been in quarantine until today. I placed the...

    Pullet/Cockerel? 8 wk blue ameraucana

    First time chicken keeper here. I ordered a mixed flock of “females” from Myers hatchery. I have a few suspect males, however, this one is my most “concerning” one at the moment. Hatch date April 24th 2023, just over 8 weeks old. Any guess on gender right now, or still too early to tell?

    Established hens being territorial to pullets only in the coop

    Hi everyone I have 4 hens and 5 12 week old pullets that I have been trying to integrate. I built a small box for the pullets to stay in while the older hens got used to them. Today I introduced them to each other and it went relatively well other than a few small squabbles. When it was night...

    Do I have an EE pullet??

    Hello! :frow I am inserting pics here of two hatchmates. They were hatched on 4/19 and are from the same hen and same rooster. Mama is a White Leghorn and Daddy is an Ameraucana. Fairly certain that the guy on the left with the hybrid walnut/pea comb is a definite ROO. He started showing roo...

    Grower feed??

    I’m wanting to put my 9 week old silkies out in the coop with my two older hens (12 and 18m) Should I just switch the two older ones to Grower feed until the babies are 18weeks ? I will it harm their egg production/growth or will they be fine ?

    Pullets unable to walk, but are otherwise vigorous...

    I've had a pullet that hasn't been able to walk for the past week. I though this might've been a leg injury so I set her up in her own with some food and water. Today I found another pullet with the same symptoms. Laying to the side and unable to get up. I tried picking her up but she always...

    Pullet sneezing for 9 weeks

    One of my chicks started sneezing at five days old and hasn't stopped. Sometimes it gets worse and she wheezes for a day but usually she is bright eyed and bushy tailed and she is growing like a weed. There is some clear liquid in the sneezes but no thick mucus and her eyes look great. I have...

    2 silver laced 9wk wyandottes that have combs but very different from each other, roo?

    These two are stumping me. I've read conflicting sexing info regarding hackle feather shape, wattles and combs and I'm questioning if they are both roos because of this or just one of them or neither. One has rounder hackle feathers and a flat comb area with a wattle and they are very pink...

    9 week Gold Lace Wyandotte hen?

    On this one I'm almost positive she is a hen because I also have 2 silver laced that are the same age and both have combs starting and one has a wattle and she has neither. I'll be posting them next to get opinions on if they could be roosters. Since I'm sure one of the straight run I had...

    Please tell me my favorite chicken isn't a roo 😭

    I got Snickers with a batch of six other pullets from the local co-op a little over a month ago. They were a few days old at the time, so likely about 5 - 6 weeks old now. We've noticed that this one has a much more developed comb and waddles than the other girls do. The tail feathers are also...
