isa brown didnt even come to mind. thats a possibility, but still


still going with pullets, you should know for sure in another week or so.

Why do you say pullet? I’m noticing little red wattles but the comb is about the same color as the RIR pullets.

A lot of hens still have wattles. My RIR, she’s 23 weeks and laying eggs.

isa brown and new hampshire red are 2 breeds i dont have. so that i cant answer. but they could just be a week or so older, that can make a huge difference. some breeds just mature faster too.

New Hampshire Red Chicks
Originating from the state of New Hampshire, these chickens are very similar to the Rhode Island Reds, which were used in their development. However, the New Hampshire Red Chickens are a lighter buff-red color than the Rhode Islands and were selected for earlier maturing.

stole that from meyerhatchery.com (got all mine from there) but could be why theyre larger.

A few days older. They are looking more like my RIR’s, just a lot bigger and a little lighter in color. Everyone combs look about the same so I’m hopeful everyone is a hen.
