    Do I have a little roo?

    Hi everyone, first time poster and first time raising chicks. We bought two blacktails (Rhode Island Red x Light Sussex) which were supposed to be sex linked hens. But I’m noticing that one is looking very different to the other. Seems to be feathering slower and darker, has a smaller tail and...

    I’ve read so many different posts about sexing EE.. what do you all think about this girl? My daughter named her Cleo but I’m worried she might actually be a Leo. Her comb isn’t any really more pronounced or pink than any of the other girls, but I’m noticing some “reddish” spots that seem to...

    Help Sexing 12 week old Ameraucana

    Hi All! 12 weeks ago we got several day-old chicks including a "female" Ameraucana. We noticed that it has always been much larger than the others, but didn't really think anything of it, as we've never raised Ameraucanas from chicks before. However, as we are reaching the 12 week mark, we are...

    New to ducks! Is my duckling a girl?

    I’m trying to figure out if my welsh harlequin is a boy or a girl. She’s about a month old, so I don’t know if there’s a good way to tell yet. I’m pretty new to ducks, but the feathers that are growing in look to me like the colors on the females, and I think she’s quacking? I’m not really sure...

    Can anyone help me with identifying the sex of my chicks

    Hi, is anyone able to help identify the sex of my 2 chicks? They are about 7 weeks old, both Pekin Bantam crossed with a Frizzle. One is much smaller than the other, probably more pekin bantam than the bigger one. Thank you

But their shanks are grey with very slight feathering. I got them from an assortment of rare breeds by Meyer Hatchery. CL cockerel? Or another...

    Hen or Roo

    This is my 15 week old Delaware Peckahontas. Isn’t that a sickle feather? No crowing but her comb & wattles are bigger than my other pullets (no other Delawares to compare to). And she/he is slightly larger than the other pullets I got at the same time.

    Gender help! 10 week old “Bluebell egger”

    I purchased two “Prairie Bluebell eggers” from Rural King about 10 weeks ago. They look mostly like barred rock, and probably won’t lay blue eggs...but I’ve since learned to not purchase from box stores unless you want to be surprised. I am fairly certain that one is a pullet, but I am unsure...
