tsc chicks

Bit the bullet and finally bought some chicks from TSC. I've heard mixed opinions on the sexing for TSC chicks, so I'm a little nervous! These little guys are for my extremely broody Delaware, 'Helen'. This is also our first time letting a broody raise chicks, so a bit nervous about that as...

Hello there! About 9 days ago, I bought 3 chicks and 2 ducks from my local TSC, and I've identified them all except for this one chick. She's quiet, varying shades of gray("blue"), with some slight white streaks in her fuzz. She has pink toes but green legs, yellow skin, and a single comb. I've...

I did it again. I swear I only needed dog food. It is their fault for having the baby chicks in the same aisle 🤣. But I am not mad, ok well, my husband is...lol. So these were at TSC as "cochins". Can someone tell me which kind and color they are going to turn into? I got 4, two that look black...

They got me y'all, there were only a few bantams left and one was a frizzle that was already starting to frizzle. An angry pinecone is on my list of wants for this year so what else was I to do but get 4 chicken babes. So that being said, with it being an assorted bantam bin from tractor supply...

I have been raising chicks for over 13 years. For the 1st time this year I purchased some chicks from tractor supply online which goes through Hoover's Hatchery. I have never used them before but they seem to have decent prices and thought I would give it a go. Received the birds within 48...

Hey yall - im back with my babies, and theyre already 7 weeks old! 😭🥰 i got them all from TSC and im 99.9% with the genders, just want to see if i got the breeds i actually chose! 😂 thank you in advance! 2 starlight green egger pullets 1 sapphire splash pullet 2 bantam bin chickies...

Hi y’all from Texas (west of Houston)! We are very new to raising chickens in our backyard and have been researching mostly on YouTube but now that we have 4 baby chicks we bought from TSC on May 29, we have more specific questions and topics to research which is how I found BYC! It will be so...

In the future I plan to breed bantam chickens and sell their eggs and hatched chicks. I have presumably 2 Golden Sebrights, 2 white Silkies, two Silver Duckwings (OEG bantam category), and either a white OEG bntum OR Red Pyle bantam from TSC + 1 grey Silkie from Rural King. Since they are from...

Hey everyone! A few days ago we brought home these adorable babies from TSC. They were labeled as Mystic Maran Pullets, but we noticed that they didn't look like any of the Mystics we saw on the internet. What do you think they are? Do they look like pullets? In the last two images you'll...

My mom picked up these little fluff-butts about a week ago, and she thought she was getting Golden Comets (obviously they were mislabeled at TSC). I’m leaning towards Cinnamon Queens because I have a couple but these chicks have fluffier cheeks/lighter coloring than mine did. We also aren’t sure...

Just bought these pullets at TSC. We are new to chickens but I’ve been ready a lot so I hope I know what I’m doing! We live in the city with our 6 kids 10 and under. Any advice or info on breed would be welcomed!

Took the kids to TSC and picked out some chicks. The two orange ones with white wings are supposed to be Golden Comets. I let the kids pick out the other 4 from the assorted bin. I was told they were all supposed to be pullets. I don't know a lot about all the different breeds, but from what...

Without going into a lot of detail, I’ve always had a hard time with TSC chicks. From wrong genders (7 out of 8 “pullets” were roo’s) to sick and dying chicks. Told myself I was no longer going to buy chicks from them, but couldnt say no to them when I went in for gardening supplies. I am...

So I bought a bunch of chickens from TSC and I began researching the breeds only to find that pictures online look nothing like what I bought. Can anyone help me identify these breeds? Comb Type: Pea Color: Black and white (Feathers coming in black) Leg Color: Black with pink feet...

Today I impulse bought 4 chicks at TSC (the rest of my flock is coming by mail this week). I believe I know one is a Barred Plymouth Rock (Chick A). The others I believe were incorrectly labeled. Chicks B and C were in the bin with Chick A which had labels for Starlight Green Eggers and Barred...

Got these guys from TSC yesterday. Supposedly they are Prairie Bluebell Eggers but no one at the store could identify the different chicks, and they were all mixed in stock tanks. Off the top of my head the breeds they did have in store were BO's, Barred Rocks, Cornish meat birds, the Prairie...

A few years ago, after starting out with a flock of grown hens given to me by a friend, I decided to get a few chicks to raise. A young and inexperienced chick keeper, I headed over to TSC and carefully picked out six chicks in breeds of interest to me. I was naive to the TSC stories of woe, in...

My broody Jade, went broody at the end of March. I wanted to add new blood to my flock so i recieved shipped eggs. She had sat on golf balls for a couple weeks while i shopped and waited for them to arrive. So they were due to hatch on April 27th and we did not get one chick hatch. I felt so...

I got these bantam chicks at TSC a couple days ago. No one working there had any idea what they were. Can anyone help me out? I'm pretty sure 2 of them are silkies or cochins because they have feathered feet... Other than that I'm pretty much at a total loss. I'll get some better pictures of...
