More pictures! This is our favorite rooster, Triton! We thought he was a BO + RIR mix but he is starting to get some small white spots so he may be a BO + Speckled Sussex mix. Either way, he is the prettiest rooster we have ever had! We're trying to handle him a lot so we don't have any issues when he gets older!



I need to take some more pictures of 2 other chickens for some advice - one old girl with some deformity on her rear end, and one young roo with weird eyes. So there will be more pictures soon

How old is Triton? I love the tail coloring!

Hello PA friends! I am kinda new and mostly illiterate on how to use this site/computers lol. I wanted to say hi to my neighbors and ask for some opinions. I have posted this elsewhere but was not sure if everyone sees it or only if they are looking for it. So here is what I posted...
Is there a way to tell if chickens are hens or roos by the way they stand/graze? I have posted pictures before and was told they were to young. My (hopefully all) girls are almost 10 (SLW) and 11 (BO) weeks old now and I still have slight concerns that I may have a few roos. They have not started to crow yet and really don't show anymore aggression towards each other then the rest do. If someone could take a look at the new pics and give me their opinion I would greatly appreciate it.
I am posting all 6 chickens, if you notice the band color you can reference them with those as well as by breed. (3 Buff Orpington and 3 Sliver Laced Wyandotte)

Agreed, they all look like pullets to me.

My Silkie girl passed this morning on her own. This morning I found her laying down, head down. I knew she was almost gone, and I thought it would be more disturbing to euthanize her at this point. When I came back from church, she had passed. I made sure to cremate her, in care it was infectious, but I suspect it was cancer or something. RIP Big Bird!
