Need help Identifying Breeds!

[Shadow3]

On average, the ones that are biggest at young ages are also biggest when they finish growing. But there are enough exceptions that I wouldn't bet either way.

Small or slow-growing chicks could end up bigger, or smaller, or in the middle, by the time they finish growing. When someone does know the breed, that at least gives some grounds for guessing adult sizes, but even then some will turn out to be smaller or larger than their breed is supposed to be.

I just feel bad for the first one since the younger ones are most likely going to out grow it and it is a bit of a whimp

Size doesn't seem to have much effect on where chickens are in the pecking order.

This is a thread I've found interesting: it talks about things to put in a chicken run that make chickens spend less time picking on each other. The biggest factor is that they can go behind or around things to be out of each other's sight.

Thank you for the luck! You just never know I guess Can I see a pic of your rooster??

Oh yeah, for sure. I've got his pictures on here, because I don't even know his breed. He was suppose to be a show when we bought him,and had a brother that looked almost identical to him. Hehe..

Love this! Thanks! I've been looking to plan things out for my future coop for them. I'll add this to my list. I am trying to make a list to what to plant around the coop as well. I don't have a coop yet but in the process of getting one.

Did you ever get closer to seeing what this beauty is? Those body feathers, and the willow legs!!

Do you have an updated photo? That comb was starting to look a bit interesting at 6 weeks.
