Hello from Texas!

[angec]

Hello all! I'm a new chicken owner with 13 6-7 week old babies. I have 3 speckled sussexes, 1 australorp, 2 barred rocks, 4 lavender ameraucanas, 2 silkies, and 1 unknown bantam chick. We are beginner homesteaders who just took on gardening at the same time. I also homeschool my 13 year old son, so we're pretty busy around here! I'm looking foward to learning more! I'm anxious to known if I have any roos in my bunch. All are supposed to be pullets with the exception of my silkies and the mystery chick. Let me know if you think you spot one! Here are some pics of my babies.

Welcome to BYC! I suspect you have at least one cockerel.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
That Sussex with the red comb is likely a cockerel.
I'd add a lot more ventilation to the coop.

Good morning, and welcome to BYC. I agree that the Speckled Sussex is likely a cockerel.
