    Male or Female RIR?

    This Rhode Island Red I got from the local feed store (sourced from Hoover’s Hatchery) is supposed to be a pullet, however today I noticed the start of curved tail feathers, with a beautiful green sheen. Does this mean male? It is about 10-11 weeks old. Sorry for the poor picture. It’s camera shy.

    10 x 12 How Many Chickens

    I currently have a plastic DIY shed that is 10' by 12'. They have a very large area outside but I'm wondering how many chickens this would fit. Bared rocks or RIR's to be exact. I've kept chickens in it before but am looking to find out what the optimal number would be. Thanks.

    Any experience integrating new chickens into flock of RIR?

    I have a 1 year old flock of 9 Rhode Island Reds who have been fairly easy and good layers. I’m raising some new chicks now who are 6-10 weeks old and going to start integrating them.

    Sexing help for our new, little flock. 2 months old - 4 breeds.

    I am looking for some help with determining if we have any roos among our little flock. We purchased our 5 chicks from a local farm store, trying to get 5 hens. We were told the breeders had 85% accuracy in sexing, but no guarantees, so we're somewhat prepared for one or two maybe turning out to...

    Hello from Tamil Nadu, India

    I am new here. I’m enjoying some information here. I am having our own South Indian Breed Siruvedai in my back yard. I came across BYC in search for information about Rhode Island Red as I am interested to add to my back yard. But still no clues from where to buy in India.
