Hello!

[AbsterliniChicken4]

My name is Abby and I am new to BackYard Chickens!

I live in South Carolina of the U.S.A., and I currently have 8 chickens.
The breeds are:
- Two Silver Laced Cochin (Esther and Pepper)
- One Blue Ameraucana (Ruth)
- One Black Ameraucana (Lily)
- One Splash Orpington (Aero)
- One Black Orpington (Orchid)
- One Welsummer (Nugget)
- And last but not least, One Easter Egger (Meg)

I would like to know how to tell if a couple of them are roosters or not, so some tips would be great!

Thanks,
AbsterliniChicken4

You can always post clear photos (individual ones are best) at "what breed or gender is this." Please state age of birds in pictures.
