My chickens are all approx. 7-8 weeks old.
I have no idea what this little chicken is. I'm thinking rooster, but as to what breed, I have no clue. He(?) has much less feathers at this point than the rest of the flock who I bought at the same exact time. He's going through an awkward stage, but I think he'll be pretty when he grows up. Up until about a week or so ago, he looked solid black.
A neighbor told me the reddish girl there is a RIR, but I'm not sure. Thoughts? My husband seem to think the one in the middle is an Americauna. Is he right?
The lighter one in this photo is extremely soft and flufflier than the rest. Her buff color made me think Buff Orpington, but I am certainly not sure. I have 2 like this.
This little bird is a hair smaller than the rest of the flock. Her feathers are very sleek and smooth. She was a completely black chick, but now has gray mottled in among her black. She's very pretty for being at the awkward age.
I posted his(?) picture here before. I'm thinking this may be a male. He was a yellow & black speckled baby. I was thinking he might be a SLW, but the markings on his feathers seem off for that breed. But again, I'm so new at this.
I'm pretty certain this is a hen, but I have no idea what kind of chicken she is. I have 2 that look like this.
I'm looking forward to hearing all of your opinions!
Thanks!
