:pop :frow:D Hillo, I'm S Raven. I have 4 pullets / cockerels that I don't know the sex of. I'm hoping you fellow chicken fanatics will help me decipher the genders of these lads and ladies. There is multiple breeds in my beautiful collage, and I'm hoping for any suggestions on the full mix...
Hey guys! I just got some jumbo coturnix. The person who I bought them from said that jumbos cannot be sexed.
They are white… so obviously these cannot be feather sexed. But can’t they be vent sexed?
I have had only standard but would imagine it’s the same?
Please tell me these guys aren't guys! They're a little over four months old, no crowing. From what I've seen of these breeds, the roosters tend to have pretty exaggerated saddle and hackle feathers, which these don't seem to have. But their combs/waddles are large and fairly bright, so I'm not...
Hello, I have 4 ducks about 7 weeks old. They are a mix of Khaki Campbell and Appleyard and I am having a hard time determining the sex. They are still making baby peeps so I haven’t been able to determine by sound. Below are photos of each of them.
Hey, my muscovy duckling is 1 month old, am i right in saying its a male? I have no other ducklings to compare him to but its looking rather masculine to me 😅 any help is appreciated, thanks
Hello 🤗
Hope all are well on here! I am a proud new owner of some baby peas! I have been decorating all the info I can learn on them such as housing, feed, veterinary care, etc. I am so glad there is such a wealth of info on here because other than some small articles on zoo websites and...
Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me figure this out!! I’m looking to adopt another hen from my local shelter. This bird was listed as a hen on the website and they said was returned to the shelter for being a rooster with no other explanation. I went to go take a look at her/him and still can’t...
Goodmorning all!
I found a place that had 2 day old bantam chicks that I had been looking for. Theyre ADORABLE 🥰 to say the least.
I got them yesterday so today they would be 3 days old.
I was curious to see if anyone was good with feather sexing.
If I was reading the articles and the diagrams...
Straight run (I believe that's the right term) from a local whose flock consisted of ameraucanas, brown leghorn, and road island reds, along with a few other breeds. -- Pay no mind to the silkie mom who has done a great job raising them. Although one does have feathered legs like a silkie...
New to turkeys. Someone gave me 4 Royal Palm turkeys - said they are 4 mo old (one died 2days after I got them). It’s standard for me to quarantine any new animal away from the rest of my farm when they are new.
I was told there are 2 hens and 2 toms but I have no clue how to identify who is...
Has anyone ever been convinced their chicks were Cockerals/Rooster only to be surprised with a Pullet/Hen instead?
If so, what were your experiences? Was it the early development of Comb/Wattles, behavior, feathering/patterns, or even the crowing? I want to hear about your sneaky tomboy hens! :D
Hi, looking for some advice please - do you think my Pekin Bantam 5 1/2 week old chick is a cockerel or pullet? Pics attached. All 4 of the chicks I have seem to be pullets but this one is confusing me. Thank you
Hello!
I decided to let my broody RSL hatch some chicks. I purchased fertilized eggs from a local farmer and 3 weeks later had 8 beautiful and colourful chicks. Fast forward 2 weeks and 2 days post hatch…. They are fighting! Like draw blood on the comb fighting. My biggest bully (who I for some...
Just wanted to confirm our suspicions, this little baby is a roo correct?
Only about 4 weeks old, already seeing little waffles and red comb development
This is my 14 week old Royal Palm. I’ve always though she was a hen. I’ve never seen her strut and never heard her gobble. She does talk a lot, but no gobbles. Does it look like I’m right, she is a hen? Or is she a he? 🤔 Thanks!
I got my beautiful birds from a local farmer who guarantees hens. I’ve always had a feeling that this was a sneaky rooster, who has been growing bigger and faster than their sisters.
I wanted to ask your opinions before I bother the farmer, do you think this is a rooster?
I’m interested in adding a black pullet chick to my flock with our next round of raising chicks. We live in a neighborhood, on about a half acre, and thankfully, our neighbors are for the most part cool with it, but I want to make sure we’re looking at quieter breeds. We are of course going to...
