Hi, I thought I'd join as we just got 2 chickens for our backyard and have already found this site immensely helpful after searching for help & tips about keeping chickens.
I don't know what kind of chickens we have, as they're supposedly mixed breed, though she mentioned leghorn & easter egg chicken in the mix.
They were 8-10 weeks old when we got them, though we're not 100% sure if one of them might be a rooster as over the last week one of them began giving what sounded like a little half crow/cockadoodledo a few times each morning.
We also have 2 little dogs that went crazy when we first brought the chickens home, so have set up the chichen run in a separate fenced area so the dogs are not tempted to get involved with them.
I have posted a couple of photos if anyone can tell if its a rooster or just a boisterous hen that makes noise.
