Hey everyone, we posted this little guy a few weeks ago enquiring about his breed, and got that all sorted. I was wondering if any expert in the matter could offer some clarification on sex? He's displaying very rooster like characteristics, and I am certain he's a rooster, but my father in law...
Ok, I'm a chicken genetics novice. But I need your experienced eyes and minds to help solve this riddle.
A black silkie rooster mates with a white cochin hen . They have a chick that is a 50/50 silkie/cochin mix.
The black silkie mates with both mother and daughter hens.
Two similar sized eggs...
I believe I have a Columbian Rock chick and a Speckled Sussex Chick. I was wondering if anyone has a guess as to what sex they are? They are around 4-5 weeks old. Hope these pictures are good.
After receiving the chicks we ordered in the mail, we noticed that we were given an extra chick and wanted to ask if anybody knew what breed it is. They are two weeks old. Any help is appreciated.
Heard Isa Browns are sex linked, but I've been questioning this little guy's sex (and breed)
Pretty sure it's the same age of my other Isa Brown pullets, who are a much darker color than it. It has shorter wings that are a buff-ish color, but a dark brown head and a lighter body.
May very well...

this is based on comparison with his suspected “pullet” sister’s appearance characteristics. She doesn’t have as pronounced comb and legs are much more...
Hello everyone! I incubated 12 eggs 2 months ago and now I have 12 beautiful 5 weeks old chicks! They are all healthy and chipping away in the coop nursery! The only thing I would like to know now is which of my chicks are actually Cockerels and which one are Pullets! I will list down their...
At the moment, I have six chickens, all thirteen weeks old (hatched 4/20): I am certain that two are pullets, and I believe that the remaining four are roos. I am positive about three males that have consistently exhibited cocky attributes and behaviors, but I’m not completely sure about the...
Hey y’all :frow

HI EVERYONE :hugs
So I think I’m gonna go ahead and get started on my silkie sexing project.
I do plan on updating this once they are fully grown and the differences between the guys and gals are obvious.
I know, I know, lots of people forget to update, but I’m...
