    What have I got here? Stags or hens?

    Hi everyone, I have had these guys from day olds, and they are 3 1/2 months old now. The are Norfolk black (I hope) but I'm struggling to tell if they are boys or girls! One of the turkeys has a larger, more developed beard, and is the only one that has started to gobble. I have circled that...

    How to gender my turkey chicks?

    Wondering how I can tell what my turkey chicks are? One is slightly bigger and has a slightly bigger snood than the other but they are close in size. Feet are similar in size, I have heard one try to gobble but they were in the coop and didn’t see it. So at least one is male. Hoping the...

    Too or hen?

    This is my 10 week old Easter Egger. her name is Sweet PeA. Would be sad if it turned out to be a Rooster because we live in the city and he would have to go! Any feedback is welcome!

    Mallard with green head at 4 weeks?

    I have 6 mallards that are 4 weeks old today. One of them (Willie) is already developing green feathers on his head. If I’m remembering correctly, my last male mallard (about 10 yrs ago) didn’t start getting green feathers until he was around 3 months old and was molting his first set of brown...

    Java pullets or cockerels?

    I’m on the fence about these two, Cookies & Cream. I think they are hens but I thought I’d see what everyone thought about them :) p.s. Cream has the most white

    Crowing at 9ish weeks?

    I know crowing doesn’t necessarily mean cockerel, but I let my girls out this morning, and Beyoncé, one of my three SL Polish with the biggest and fastest forming crest, was on the highest roosting bar, crowing its heart out. It was super adorable! I had to run off to work so I didn’t take any...

    Five week old chicks, could this one be a rooster?

    Hi all! Thank you for taking the time to read my forum post. I’m completely new to chickens, and am hoping for a little guidance. I ordered all pullers, but I am wondering if one of my girls may be a rooster. She is a black laced Wyandotte. I’ll post her and then a picture of her sisters as...

    Easter Egger Sexing Help - 5 weeks

    I'm totally new to the chicken thing, and have wanted them for many, many years. So I have been taking photos of my 4 easter eggers and 2 brahmas every week. The brahmas were listed as pullets and the EEs were straight runs. I'm curious as to how they would grow and take on new colors since this...

    Are Buff Orps all hermaphrodites?

    I got my buffs 9 weeks ago, so they’re between 9 and 10 weeks. Some days I’m convinced I have all pullets, other days I’m convinced I have a bunch of cockerels. The two smallest and most pullet-like ones love to puff up their feathers and chest bump each other. Three of them are larger and have...

    Methinks this pullet is pulling the old switch-to-roo.

    Please be hens

    Nothing more fun than impatiently waiting to know what sex the chickens are lol. I have my guesses and occasionally second guess them on behaviors. What does everyone think. 9 week old Lavendar Orpingtons (5 of them) and 1 SLW plus a group photo

    In Search of Photos of Your Chickens

    Hi! I am brand-new to raising chickens and realized not long after I got my chicks that they may not be what the feed store said they were. Also I read the hatchery they came from may not be the most reputable. I believe they are 4-5 weeks old and I think I have two Welsummers, three SL Polish...

    What Gender is My White Silkie Chick?

    I just hatched a silkie chick and she/he was literally born on April 7th 2019. So she/he is a week old. She’s/he’s a white silkie chick because the color is yellow. I have a picture of her. I named her Fidget because when she was born she was really restless. Fidget means to be restless. Fidget...

    Hen or Rooster

    16 weeks old. No crowing yet. Not sure if this is a hen or rooster. I think it is a hen but not 100% certain.
