I'm not new to chickens but I am new to this breed. Can anyone help me to sex them? Pretty obvious the Maran in the front is a cockerel and the one behind is a pullet but what about the 3 light Brahma? I know that the larger breeds tend to be slower to mature. What are your opinions?

My 7 mo old cockerel is squeaking. He does this quite often and has been doing it for a while. I have now noticed other birds in the flock doing the same. I have owned chickens for 6 years and have never had them making this sound on a regular basis. I have treated the flock with...

These boys were hatched in June from a Lemon Blue pairing. Their colors are really begining to come in.

There are two tuedos, one gray, one chipmunk, two pale yellow with some dark spots. Daddy is a cochin. Not sure if the broody is the true mama or if she stole the eggs. Found her on a surprise clutch. If they are hers, she is 1/2 cochin. If that helps with color identity. :-)

I am not sure what is going on with BYC, or maybe it is just me. My "tool bar' that has the options to upload photos, etc. is gone. As is my multi quote option. When I do quote someone, it comes up in the edit box with all kinds of weird computer stuff mixed in but it does let me quote and...

Our 4H pullet chain birds this year are going to be Amber Links. I have never seen or had experience with this "breed". We had red sex links and Leghorns before. I was just wondering what experiences any of you have had with these sex links. Also pictures if you have any. How is their...

Let's play GUESS THE MAMA!!! Your choices are: Banty cochin Salmon Favorelle Silver Phoenix Here's dad: Silver Phoenix Here's the 2 week old babies: Give it your best guess!

Wasn't sure the best location to post this so I picked this one. I have two chicks that are a mix from a Silver Phoenix roo over a Salmon Favorelle. I will add some pics later. Both chicks are totally different in their baby colors. Someone out there with genetic experience want to give me...

draye and I have been discussing adding a list of regularly scheduled poultry swaps and/or auctions to the Arkansas Swap thread. Neither he or I know how to do that. He asked if I might see what I could learn. He is the thread starter. We want it to show up so that anyone reading the thread...

I have an almost 4 month old bantum White Face Black Spanish cockerel. I noticed today that he looked puffed up, tail was down, wattles paler than normal. He was somewhat isolating himself from the rest of the flock but would move pretty quickly if a dominate came near him. He did some...

This cockerel won Reserve Grand Large Fowl in our local county fair. He was hatched in April from University of Arkansas eggs. He is a beautiful bird but we have too many boys. He must find a new home. I am willing to do some driving to meet someone to make the swap if necessary. PM me if...

This guy is a Frizzle Banty Cochin cockerel. Would his color be considered Partridge or something else? I appreciate any input.

I have been raising chickens for a while but just received 2 ducklings whose mama abandoned them and I know nothing about ducks. Anyone out there have experience with raising ducklings with chicks? I am especially interested in how to set up water for the ducklings to play/drink without...
