Take a look at the "girls"

[ChickenRehab]

15-16 week old flock. First time chicken mom, so hoping the girls are really girls. I have nightmares of waking up to 16 crowing chickens. Lol

Free mystery chick. Barred Rock? Hen/Roo Or BSL Roo?

They all look like pullets to me.

I agree. You should be getting lots of eggs before long. )

Thanks for looking. The suspense of waiting for eggs is crazy! I knew I was going to be eggcited lol but I didn't know it would be like this. You guys pretty confident on the mystery chick (the first pic)? The comb/wattle is throwing me. Barred rock pullet then?

That first one is a Barred Rock. Her and the Silver Laced Wyandotte both look like they will be your first to lay. 2 to 4 more weeks to wait until you get that first egg.

Does this pic help of first chicken? Still think pullet?

 

[junebuggena]

Yep, that's still a pullet. While she does have some rather long saddle feathers, they are rounded.

 

[ChickenRehab]

Thanks! Those tail feathers and red wattles and large comb compared to the others has this newbie stumped. Thanks for the info, I am just loving my chicken raising adventure.

This is one of my best layers. She started at 19 weeks old, and has laid daily almost from the start.

Great looking hen!!!
The one that I was questioning is my favorite chicken! My 9 yr old begs for her to sleep in bed with him. LOL Such a sweetheart.
