The first one that has a white spot on the head is a rooster. Basically, all the roosters are lighter in colour and have white spot on their head. The hens will be dark coloured.

UPDATE : Its a rooster here is a pic of him now:

She was purchased from a lady who was just starting to breed them. She had orpingtons, GLW and barred rocks. I got her as a chick and was told its a orpington as she also had orpingtons. here is a better picture

Is my hen a Barnevelder OR Golden Laced Wyandotte? She is 21 weeks old.

I think they are all roosters apart from G. But I would definitely wait a few more weeks. The hens are darker than roosters in the feather colour

I have 7 chickens and they free range in the garden which is quite big. They poop everywhere on the grass and flies are everywhere. I pickup their droppings 4 times a day but can only pickup dry ones not wet ones. Any ideas on getting rid of them naturally? Don't wanthink to use chemicals that...

I have 7 chickens of which 1 lays eggs. They had cocci and are on corid its the 7th day. Can I feed the eggs back to them? or should i throw it away? Like boiling it and mixing with feed or frying it??? Thanks

I'm not sure. All three I purchased together have blue legs. The black 9 week rooster has black legs he was purchased from a different person.

No he hasn't

These are the blue and splash for comparison with the white one which is next to eachother. The blue and splash are around 16 weeks to the seller said the white is smaller as they grow at different rates but I think it is around 12 weeks

The white one is not 16 weeks I was told its around that age but I have a blue and splash which are bigger in size than this one. So I would say it is 12 weeks. The black one is difinatly 9 weeks so I used to compare. If the white was 12 should it have waddles and comb that big? Thanks for your...

Hi, I purchased a white orpington around 16 weeks (I was told). I also have a 9 week old roo (black) to compare this one to. The roo is the same size as the white body wise. Can you help tell me if the white is a roo or pullet. Thanks

Hi, I have a black Orpington rooster and was wanting to know what colors I would get if I crossed him with a White hen? Thanks

Oh its ok, lol I thought you get it by mating 2 different chickens but its actually a separate breed.
