Hello. My name is Missy. I am from NY, USA. I am new to raising chickens, When I was a young girl, almost 20 years ago, my family had a few chickens that were given to them by a family that moved. In total, there was 6 hens and 7 roosters. No Idea what breeds they were.
Last week, I got 8 chickens from Tractor Supply. I do not know much about them or raising them, although they appear to have almost doubled in size since I brought them home, I could be wrong though. I currently have 6 females(for sure) 2 Tetra Tints, and 4 Golden Comets. My unsexed chicks are brahmas. They are a few days younger than the others. Is there any way to tell if they are males or females at this age? They are all currently house chickens, as I fear it is too cold for them to be outside.
