Help! can you help me iidentify sex and breed - new to this!

Date sort Score sort
There are Pekins in the states, I think they are what we call them bantam Cochins. I also assume Black Rocks are more common in the UK because they usually breed for Barred Rock cocks to be dark like the hens which creates many more black birds--I could be completely wrong about that though.

I still dont' know what a speckled lady is.

I know their are pekins, I just never saw black ones. I didn't think they were the same as bantam cochins. We were just discussing blue and black rocks about a week ago on the plymouth rock thread

Is a "Speckled Lady" a Speckled Sussex? Or some other breed?

Regardless, OP, you can play with the chicken calculator:

Put in different pairings of what you know was on the farm and see what happens.

Someone tried to tell me on another thread. They are in the UK. Something about marans is all I remember, maybe someone from the UK will chime in
