Hi Lorraine, what breed(s) do you have in your flock? Pictures are nice if you'd like to share. Thanks for joining us!

hi!
I have 2 BYM Polish roosters, 2 golden comets, 2 EE, 1 black sex link and a Rhode Island Blue that are OG. In late Aug my fave and only Polish hen disappeared, so we tried hatching a few of her eggs. One hatched but was lonely, so I found 3 Orpingtons and 2 Amberlink chicks within a few days of the hatch. The Polish died and now I have those 5 (I'm terrified the Orps are all roos). And about 3 weeks ago, I acquired two Cream Legbars about 2 m old.
Pics of my roos; Space Ace (with a photo bomb of BSL Natasha) & Bob Ross and the NKOTB. The rest of the OGs were all over the property today.

They are beautiful, thanks for sharing!

As for sexing, we have a What Breed or Gender is This forum you can post pictures if there's any you're questioning.
