Hi! Can anyone tell me what my sweet Lulu is? She's about three months old. I was told she's a buff orp and lavender orp cross, which seems...surprising. Any ideas?

Cockerel. Looks correct for a Orpington cross. The Buff color in Orpingtons is very strong when crossed with solid black (lavender is a recessive dilute for black).

Oh no--Lulu is a dude?? I got five 4-week-old chickens from a farmer: a cuckoo marans, a cream legbar, and isbar and Lulu. The marans AND the cream legbar were both cockerels. So now 3 out of 5. Grrrr. Thanks, though.

Well of course TSC wouldn't refund any money for the major screw up with selling me Cornish instead of what I thought I was buying (Leghorns) and if it wasn't for a woman that was working he wouldn't of even taken them 4 back so he replaced them with 4 more he said they just got in last week and their a week old and I still don't know if they will be Leghorns or more Cornish but I can guarantee that if these are Cornish too, I will take them back and wash my hands of Tractor Supply. Here's a pic of the new babies. So disgusted with that place right now. :barnie:fl:tongue

Can't tell at this point, but by next week it should be pretty obvious if they are Cornish Cross. Not to be confused with purebred Cornish.

I think this is an EE but I'm not positive I got a baby picture and adult. No beard or muffs or comb and 4 months old now.EE are my favorite breed so I tried getting a non bearded but it looks so different then the rest of mine now and as a chick.
