My Old Boi Scrappy

[Kale the Quail]

Scrappy is such a blobby bean

Got some friends for Scrappy.

They are little Seramas, the left one and right one are 4 weeks of age and the middle one is 3 weeks old and are all currently in quarantine before getting introduced. Always loved the breed and found these three stooges going free to a good home and quickly snapped them up.

Scrappy has been raised around chickens and chicks before, so he should take to them and hopefully they take to him. XD

I don’t know much about chickens, do you know if they’re male or female? The one with the perky tail is really cute!

I the two oldest look a bit roostery, but I am hoping they are hens.

Is it posture that looks like a rooster? Or the combs? How do you tell? I’m sorry, I’m just curious, I don’t visit the chicken side of things here because I can’t have them and I might try trying to squeeze one into the yard lol.

Young males with a straight comb like that definitely start to get a thicker, redder comb once they hit the juvenile stage. Unfortunately the two big guys in this pic are both boys, the smaller one is a female. In the hens the comb stays pink or gray and not fully reddish for quite some time. With other breeds with different comb types it can be difficult. The bets identifier I have noticed is that males almost always have thicker legs and different, deeper voices.

Redhead struttbutt is pretty much 100% male

Speckled chick is uncertain, I feel it is a hen.

Dolly the tiny black chick is probably a hen too.

"So... When did you lay eggs and why is it only now you are introducing me to my children? Well, these are my babies now."

"What are you eating, child!?"
