Distinctive chipmunk stripes/eye stripes, but also a dot on the head. Roo or pullet??

Hi friends! I have a setup of two separate pens and runs—one for my cream legbars, and one for my whiting true blues and other breeds I cross with them. I also have a separate 3x6 brooder box. I currently have one broody on eggs that should start hatching tomorrow in the brooder box, and I...

Hi friends! I bought some whiting true blue and whiting true greens from mcmurray last spring and they threw in 4 bonus chicks. I see now why some people request to not get any extra.

My roosters have black spots on their combs, and now they have some white. They’ve been vaccinated. Could it be from mites? Or fungus? Some of the black spots will scratch off, but the roo did not like me messing with them. Any suggestions on doctoring, care, and prevention? Thanks, friends!
