I have a SLW that I am trying to determine if its a cockerel. What age is yours and when could you tell?
THANKS for any insight.

Well after looking I am thinking 2 of the 3 are roos. They were hatched on April 2nd... So they are just about a month. His comb and waddles are red and he is about twice the size of littler one. He aslo stands straighter and has a broader chest. I will post pics in a little so you can see the difference. I could be wrong but I think I have 2 roos.
 
OK so the 1st picture is the pullet next to the roo... Pic 2 &3 are a possible roo... Pic 4 & 5 are of the one I think is a roo... Tell me what you think... Hatch Date April 2nd.
 
Today we made a little perch for the brooder. We had a few smaller, makeshift ones but the new ones are longer and wider on top. I was cracking up at the chicks investigating it and jumping on and off!

Well I can totally see the diffrence in the first picture! But I am so new to this that just when I think I know how to tell the diffrence...I end up being wrong. HAHA And if yours are about 4 weeks, I am thinking my SLW is more like 5 weeks?
 
Hey BYC family! Been a few weeks and just logged on to check PM's. I didn't have any so thought I would get on the thread and say Hi.

Thanks to all who text or email to check on me, Julie, Rob and Robin! I don't always get a chance to reply right away but I appreciate you checking on me. Been working 7 days a week. Got a weekend "real" job plus the mowing has started back up and the market garden and growing produce for co op. Just trying to keep my head above the water. I haven't had a chance to read back but I'm sure Cheryl has had her babe! Could someone please PM and let me know? Thanks a bunch. Hope everyone is doing ok and I'm sorry I can't contribute much lately. Life is just full of 'you know what'. I miss you all.

OK, sorry to interrupt. Carry on.
 
Tell me what you guys think of this 'head' that was given to me.heavy concrete hanging pot, and had a round bottom so DH cut the
botton off and drilled drain holes in the sides & epoxied it to the top of our mail box monument............used to be just flat with nothing on top & needed something..........I planted creeping charlie & lobelia in the 'head' so she will have nice long hair soon........kinda looks creepy though, huh ?

Looks like there is a dead body in the bricks with her head sticking out, huh ?
Well any kids come along & try to baseball bat this are gonna get a surprise !



It is hand cast by an artist friend of DH's youngest daughter.she has give me 2 such "heads"...this is the bigger one.
The other is just a statue, a head rising from the soil in my garden.
Occasionally I find a chicken perched on the 'head's' face as it looks up at the sky.....kinda creepy, huh ?

Um yea!! really creepy reminds me of a movie I watched of Medusa and the statue of her had her eyes closed just like this one, then she came alive and scared the livin beep out of me!! Sorry, very good work on the part of the artist, but, yea, I'm not one for statues or heads!
