So my husband and I found a chicken! So we got 3 more to keep her company. Not sure what beed the brown hen is? Anyone can tell me? But anyway the bigger issue is the 3 white ones have been "cock-a-doodle-doing" lately! I read hens can do this sometimes but it's rare. Do I have roosters instead of hens?! They said they would start laying by Feb-Mar! Please help we were looking for eggs! We won't be able to keep them if they're roosters the city of Chicago won't let us!

Oh man, thanks! I guess we will have to find a new home for theses boys! I guess we will be looking for hens that are laying and not chicks. Maybe more bantams then? Any suggestions where?

I hope you find a home or a stew pot soon for the boys or they'll be all over that little girl trying to mate her and that could cause some big problems.

Good luck, sorry you ended up with boys you can't keep!
 
Hi and welcome to BYC. I agree with members above - them's boys. Thats a bum deal - sorry. I hope that you find the GIRLS that you are looking for very soon.

All the best

You may want to join the Illinois state thread. I know there are also some Chicago backyard chickens kind of clubs - you may be able to find them on google. I believe Chicago also has coop tours you can go on. I wasn't aware that Chicago didn't allow roosters.
