    EE: Pullet or Cockerel??

    Two Easter egger chicks about six to seven weeks old. I am 99.9% positive the white one (Sider) is a roo. I’m not quite sure about the darker one (Peri.) she/ he is not developing a comb like Sider is, but the reddish/brown on the shoulders leads me to believe roo. Peri has always been the...

    Six week old cochin (?) mix

    So, I think I've finally sexed all the BYM chicks I've hatched except for this one. I genuinely can't tell what they might be, the tail especially throws me off and I'm not very good at identifying hackle/saddle feathers, if I'm honest. What do y'all think this one might be? I'm pretty sure...

    Welsummer chicks: two pullets, or is one a cockerel?

    Acquired two Welsummer chicks from a local source, supposed to both be female. They'll have just turned six weeks and are developing quite differently, however. Specifically, one has a much more noticeably developed comb and different colorations. Being so young, they are quite hard to...

    What is this fellow mixed with?

    This is my one rooster from all of the rescue birds I took in this year, I found him in a box with a ton of silkies and one little Cayuga duckling about six weeks ago. They were all sick but he, a black Silkie, and the Cayuga survived. He’s obviously Silkie (5 toes and hyper melanated) but mixed...

    Confirm my suspicions?

    Hello! So I have 6½ week old chicks that I have hand raised as our broody bantam rejected them completely. I have 2 black Australorps, 1 Buff Orpington, and 1 Easter Egger (was sold as an Araucana but I'm fairly certain that's not the case) All were bought at a local feed store and were marked...

    Young Cock Can't Walk Normal

    I have a young salmon faverolle cockerel who is not walking right. He seems to be able to take only tiny steps and loses his balance easily; sometimes he spins in circles. Most of the time he gets to where he's going (food, water, his buddies) and then lay down. I have checked him well for...

    Sex these two mixed chicks

    Hi. Can you tell me if these two mixed chicks are cockerels or pullets? The bigger one, with spots on the chest is around six weeks old and kinda looks like a pullet to me, even though in its first three weeks of life it looked like a cockerel. I think it's a mix between light brahma X silver...
