Hi! I My daughter and I have been raising 5 Buff Orpington we got when they were about 2 weeks old. They're now 3 months old. We're totally new to this, but I can say I wouldn't have had the confidence to venture into having some chickens if it weren't for this site!
We are feeling fairly certain that 2 of our little flock are cockerels. Until about a week ago they all looked pretty close, but now two have bright red, and noticeably bigger combs and wattles. I'm a little worried about what I am going to do with 2 roosters This is a backyard flock in the middle of a fairly dense residential area, so we can't really have a rooster let alone 2!
Thank you!!!
(I apologize if the pictures aren't the best for sexing - I tried to follow the posted guidelines but it was much harder than I thought it would be!)
