    Here we go, wyandottes & olive eggers 😀

    Got my birds from a somewhat local breeder,1.5 hrs away, who delivers through our area to surrounding counties.

    3 week old Easter egger Roo?

    We got a few Easter egger pullets from TS about 3 weeks ago, and normally I would say that’s way too early to sex a chick but what do you guys think? This one’s comb and waddles are very bright, and it’s comb is pretty wide though very flat.

    Is my 4 week old wellsummer a roo?

    So we got chicks a few weeks ago that are all supposed to be pullets. We did get a couple wellsummers and both had the sharp V and eyeliner that girls generally have. However it has developed a decently sized comb. So I just wanted to see thought on if it's a roo or a hen?

    Guys or gals?

    Hello! I have a few 10 1/2 week old chicks and I’d like to know what I’ve got. I have one serama, who I believe is a little lady. One bantam Cochin. My other girl Cochins got red very early on, so I’m hoping this is the case. And a mystery chicken ( any idea what it is?)
