Hi there,
I need help knowing what gender my 7-8 week old chicks are... i have been trying to feather sex after watching youtube videos (American) I have been wrong here and there as all the chicks shown in these videos are fully feathered and said to be 3 weeks old. I'm in Australia, is there a...
Hi, my roommate and I are college students living in rural/suburban Georgia who decided to take up backyard chicken raising together. We’ve had chickens for about nine months now, and we have 3 fully grown Rhode Island Red hens, and a Buff Orpington, Black Australorp, and Silver Laced Wyandotte...
I am hoping to swap for a silkie or frizzle hen, but really I would love to give Saturn to someone who will let him make lots of little wynadottes. He is very gentle and doesn't peck or scratch humans. He lightly taps and chases hens, but doesn't pluck or tackle. He loves to eat, not picky at...
I ordered an all female batch of day-olds from McMurray. Well, now they're approximately 13 weeks old and I'm definitely seeing the differences. I didn't have trouble telling the sex of my Speckled Sussex girls, but the Silver Laced Wyandottes are all over the place (or so they are to me).
I'm...

My 16wk old Grace is rather opinionated and aaaaawwwkkkks at everyone (especially if you try to be friendly). No crowing yet, and no eggs. She is has very prominent large floppy red comb and long wattles. I went to a local chicken focused ag fair today to spy other silver Wyandotte pullets a d...
Hi. I have four chickens that I got five days ago. I am not asking any questions, I am telling you about my flock. If anyone asks questions I will try to answer them.(sorry if I misspelled something)
Pine, my Black Australorp, is very beautiful because when the sun shines on her black...
I got my first ever chickens over a month ago. Our town's bylaw only allows us 3 hens so we have one White Orpington (1 year old) one Buff Orpington (3 months old) and one Silver Laced Wyandotte (3 months old).
The problem is that our WO is often pecking our SLW and plucks out her feathers in...
Sure is a release after a long day's work (and drive) to check on the mini flock! Also nice to get up before the drive to work and go out to check on them an see how they're all doing. Currently have my faithful Plymouth Barred Rock just over a year old, my Silver Laced Wyandotte acquired about...
Hey ya'll... I got two birds: SLW and a BR. They are about 10 weeks old. Sold as pullets by a hatchery. Do I really have the breeds they are supposed to be? Are they even pullets?. I don't have any other birds to compare to. Any help is much appreciated.
Hey everyone. I got 2 birds that I'm highly suspicious that they are not true breeds nor they are pullets. They are about 10 weeks old. One is a SLW and the second one is a BR. I hope you all can help me figure this out. I bought them a local feed store. Thanks in advance!!! I hope they are...
I have two female silver laced wyandottes and I thought they were female but now I am not so sure. They are both developing differently. Could it be that they are at different stages?? Please let me know what you think!! one has a darker comb and the other has a lighter comb. I have uploaded the...
I just picked up a couple of Silver Laced Wyandotte Hens (I think?). I had two 1 year old Plymouth Barred Rock hens but they really started beating up on the darker of the two SLW's. Tore about a 1" wide by 4" long block of feathers off the back of the neck along with some puncture wounds. I...
