    What breed are they?

    I have 2 pullets my husband picked up at the feed store, Sold as dorkings. They are mottled so I'm thinking speckled sussex? I wouldn't think jubilee orpington would be sold at a feed store. What breed are they?

    8.5 week old Speckled Sussex genders?

    Speckled Sussex gender?

    Hello! I posted these two before but they were a little young still. Here they are at 6 weeks. I’m thinking the first one is a pullet and the second is a cockerel, but just looking for second options. Thanks!

    Are my Welsummer Pullets actually Roos? Or are they even Welsummers???

    I purchased a mixed flock of chicks from TSC on April 1, at which point they should have been no less than 4 days old (but possibly older??). My two "sexed Welsummer Pullets" are developing at vastly different rates and in another thread many thought the more developed Irma might be a roo. But...

    Yogurt!

    My little ladies have not been interested in treats. After many attempts I finally got them to have some plain yogurt today, after sprinkling some Scratch and Peck herbs on top. Nutritious, messy and entertaining!

    Supposedly speckled Sussex...

    Can anyone help me identify these hens?? I’ve had them since chicks, and they were “supposed” to be speckled Sussex (though the one I knew for sure was a Sussex sadly didn’t make it). These birds have no white speckles but have not yet molted. I have three of them - from Murray McMurray. My...
