    Sex? Bantam or standard?? (Final)

    I have a roughly 10 wk old cochin chick, I am stumped on gender, they're much smaller than the other chicks and a slow growth rate. I'm starting to wonder if they're a bantam breed?

    Red cochin bantam wattle at 3 weeks old??

    I'm pretty sure this is a roo. Out of all 4 of my cochin bantams this is the only one that has developed a wattle and has a larger comb! Is it common for bantams to start showing those signs this early? (3 weeks old) First 2 pics is our suspected roo. The others I think are hens. Maybe too...

I know...

    Ayam Cemani pullet or cockerel?

    Here on today’s edition of “Hen or Roo?”, we have a pair of 7 week -old Ayem Cemanis. They were sold to me as a pair of pullets, but I’m thinking one is a cockerel. One was hatched about 5 days after the other, so she’s a bit smaller. But she’s always had a tiny little comb and is very timid...

    Free Silkie Roo in MA

    I have a gorgeous fluffy white silkie boy free to a good home. My area doesn't allow roosters so I'm trying to rehome him quickly. He's a nice guy, friendly and nice to everyone. He was hatched by a local NPIP breeder around XMas. I'm located just outside of Boston.

    Is this a roo?

    This little chickie seems more bold than the rest. Jumps at me and pecks at me and chest bumps the other chicks. Won't run away when I reach for him/her (which is nice because my kids & I like to hold them). Is it too early to tell if a roo? It is one of 12 chicks of various breeds including 4...
