    Help identifying 12 week BCM

    Of course she/he is my favorite. I'm new to chickens and have 3 BCM. This one is the only one with copper on its neck. No other copper on wings or tail. 12 weeks old. Hoping it's a hen so I can keep it. 😭 Any insights into sex?

    Sexing my flock (new to all this)

    Hello! This is our first time raising chickens. We are trying to figure out what sex each of our chicks are. They are about 14 weeks old now. After some research, I am guessing we have 2 sultans (1 male, 1 female), 2 silkies (no clue) and 1 maybe 2 plymouth rock (guessing 1 male, 1 female). The...

    11 week old Austalorps. Pullets or Cockerels?

    I attained these Black Australorps on April 18th, 2024. They were a few days old. I've had/have this breed previously, but only hens. I've noticed some drastic changes in this new group, and am curious if I've got a few cockerels among the four pictured here. They developed combs and waddles...

    Hi guys, need you collective wisdom. 😀 Am I right that I've got 1 X hen (pic 1+2) and 1 X rooster (pic 3+4)? The combs are the same size in both but saddle feathers are different. Thanks

    12 week old Australorps Roo or Hen??

    Hello! I’ve attached photos of my 4, 12 week old Australorps (that’s what we were told they were anyways) and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they are roo’s or hens? I have a feeling 3 of them are Roos but I don’t know too much about sexing! They have colour identifiers on their feet :)

    Misconceptions About Curved Tail Feathers in Easter Egger Juveniles

    I've been noticing a lot of posts lately in which people are asking about the gender of their 3 month old Easter Eggers. There is a misconception that curved tail feathers at that age indicate a cockerel. This is simply not true! At the age of 11 to 14 weeks, the birds are not sexually mature...
