    One hen (?) with a large comb

    Hi! This is my first post here, and also my first time raising chicks! One hen that we got has developed a much, much larger comb and wattles than the other four hens we have. I just want to ensure that this chicken is actually a hen, because I am not able to have a rooster within the city...

    Jasmine or Jerry?? What is the sex if this chick?

    Hello!! This is my 4+ week old Golden Laced Wyandotte. I’m starting to think Jasmine will need to be renamed to Jerry! She has a much larger comb than the other chicks and grew much slower. What do you guys think?

    Easter Egger, Rooster? I'm pretty darn sure...

    So I ordered 10 easter eggers, got 11. They tote a 90% accuracy rate, so not a fail on their part if Peaches is a 'he'. The first photos are of Peaches. The next photos are of Dolly, whom I'm nervous to say is maybe a roo as well... Let me know what you think! I may have to start looking for a...

    Barnevelder gender

    Long time lurker, first time poster here ☺️ I have a 12 week Barnevelder and I need some reassurance that he’s a dude. I can’t keep cockerels, but don’t want to give away a potential hen! He looked like a pullet until 8 weeks, but feathers look male now. No crowing yet. Am I right?

    Sex my chicken!

    Hey! I have a couple of blue wheaten ameraucanas that are almost 5 months old. I'm fairly certain the dark one is a roo, but do you guys think the lighter one is a pullet?

    First timer - What breed and sex are they?

    Hi, all! I’m a first timer and would love some help sexing these chicks. I live within city limits, so no roosters are allowed. I got them from Tractor Supply and they are supposed to all be female but of course that’s not guaranteed. They are supposed to be about 4 weeks old. The first two are...

    My 'hen' just started crowing...

    My 20 week old Hy Line brown just started crowing in the morning. Which is a problem as I live in an apartment in downtown Tokyo(with a small yard). I've read of gender confused hens, but then again it might just be a cockrel. Zer has been always a tad masculine (would fight crows and keep the...

    Ameruacana,roo or hen?

    Just exchanged two roos I got from a farmer and he gave me two ameruacana "hens". I am sure that the light colored one is a hen but unsure about the other. What do y'all think?

    The age old question: roo or hen?

    The first pic is a 4 week old cuckoo marans and the second pic is a 4 week old black australorp. I'm nearly 100% sure the blk australorp is a cockerel, looks and acts like one. I'm mostly interested on what you all think about my marans. Thanks!
