I acquired this pretty girl a few months ago and I completely forgot what breed she is. She just started laying white eggs. & Funny story.. she accidentally found her way into the house when I first got her. 😂😂
Picked up what I thought was a buff Orpington rooster but he went from looking like a young buff to suddenly this massive lanky ginger. I still think it’s half buff based on a few things but what could he be crossed with?
Also if my hens are full and he’s half will they have 3/4 buff chickens?
And also can anyone tell me what breed hopefully-she is? (Photo of big dark chicken and photo of feet from the back)
I’m also wondering about the breed of this bantam is…formerly Eudine, now certainly Eustace. (Photo of obvious orange and tan rooster)
They were purchased as chicks on May 8th...
I ordered some layers from Meyer Hatchery about 3 weeks ago. They threw in a “mystery chick”. Any guesses as to what she is? Her feathers are coming in a beautiful dove gray with some barring.
I’m guessing she’s got to be a fairly common laying breed. I doubt they’d be giving away anything...
I’ve attached some pictures of my new baby girl Biscuit. Biscuit is an energetic and very loud little chick. She’s over three weeks old now and lives with two baby Easter eggers and a Wyandotte of the same age with no problems. She is a pretty dark brown in colour with no spangling yet that I...
i hatched this chick back in may, she was laid by one of my cornish hens … she doesnt quite look like mom or dad, can anyone tell me what breed she is?
this is the rooster, dad:
mom is a cornish hen. here’s pictures of the mystery chick:
So I got eggs off ebay. Some bantam cochins and some silkies. 8 hatched out. 1 has 5 toe's but looks nothing like a silkie. Any guesses as to what breed it may be. Cochins don't have 5 toes.
I bought these two chicks as “Cuckoo Marans” from TSC. 🧐
I’m guessing Sapphire Gems or something similar? Also, the combs are still super duper small but are those red waffles coming in strong trying to tell me something? Nearly 6 weeks old.
Any guesses for gender and breed?
hi im new but ok so on sunday my brother and his girlfriend came into my room with a chicken in his hands and told me that they saw a guy throw the chicken outside his truck while at the lake. He then gave me the chicken and said i have to take care of it! So yeah it was a weird day. So far i...
Purchased one prairie blue bell pullet (black) and one starlight green egger pullet (white and orange) from Tractor Supply who got them from Hoover Hatcheries. Are these actually PBB and SGE pullets? I think they're around 4 wks old, not sure how long they were in the store before I purchased...
Hey everyone!
I am a new chicken owner and got a mixed breed flock, but am struggling to know which ones are male. All of them hatched late February. I noticed the tail feathers on these three curl inward, but I’m not sure if that means they are roosters. It’s hard to compare them to each other...
This thread is for anyone who spots a random bird and are curious about what breed it is or gender is you want
could be a bird from your flock or your friends neighbor flock or just a random bird you noticed on a walk
Just post a picture of it and will try and figure it out for you
Rules...
Hello everyone!
I bought this chicken as a baby from Ideal Poultry in Texas, it is 4.5 months old now. I bought this chicken as a Blue star, a cross between a blue Australorp and barred Plymouth Rock. This chicken does not look anything like the other blue star I received. This chicken is much...
I was so sure that this bird was a barred rock pullet until it grew some wing feathers. COMPLETELY BLACK! No stripes, nothing. I narrowed down all the possible breeds from what the breeder had to two. Barred Rock, and Black Australorp, but at a few days old it had the white bum, bib, wing tips...
