    3 week update — what am I?

    Thank you! Got them from TS not sure which hatchery they came from but they were all mixed. Supposedly all pullets but who knows??

    3 week update — what am I?

    Could the third one be a golden laced Wyandotte? The gold/black feather pattern is sort of starting to develop…

    That’s what I thought! She’s starting to grow that little tuft on her head

    Hi All! Here’s an update at ~3 weeks of age. Any guesses on gender or breed? I tried to get a side/front view of each. There are 4 chicks total. Thanks so much!

    Do I have one cockerel & one pullet?

    I’m wondering if one of these may be a cockerel? They’re around 2 weeks old. Also, are they sapphire gems? No real idea but they were labeled as olive eggers. Possible male

    No tail but cute as a button! What am I?

    Some comparison pics. Grey one is larger in body size but behind in tail & wing development:

    No tail but cute as a button! What am I?

    Not 100% on the age. Youngest this one could be is 2 weeks old +/- 2 days. This one is the same size or bigger than their siblings but much shorter wing/tail development. One of their siblings has wings so long they’re as long as her body! I’ll post a pic for comparison.

    No tail but cute as a button! What am I?

    This little one is 2-3 weeks old. No idea of breed. No tail yet to speak of, just a little fluff bump. Grey-blue eyes, light yellow/grey feet, black beak. Wing feathers coming in black w/a bit of grey. Any guesses on breed or gender? Their same-age “siblings” have tails.

    Random chicks — any guesses?

    Hi all! I have 4 chicks roughly 2 weeks old. No solid ideas about what breeds they are. any guesses?? They mostly look distinct from one another marking wise. I know it’s too early for sex determination but guesses welcome on that too! Two look somewhat similar with chipmunk-like coloring, but...

    Two chickens gone without a trace

    Hi chicken folks! In the last few weeks I’ve had two hens just go missing without a trace. Not a single feather. Just poof! Gone! Over the last 8 years I’ve had hens taken/attacked by bald eagles, hawks, foxes, and weasels. Each time there is ample evidence of attack — typically in the form...

    Boy or Girl? 11 week UPDATE: photos & poll!

    I have read this! 😀 If she weren't a sapphire gem, would the size of her wattles, comb, legs indicate male at 11/12 weeks?

    Boy or Girl? 11 week UPDATE: photos & poll!

    Oh I hope so! I do love a nice roo but it would be 14 to 1 which might be tough on a fella.

    Boy or Girl? 11 week UPDATE: photos & poll!

    Hey all! The sapphire gems I posed about in May are now around 11/12 weeks old. Here’s the original thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/sapphire-gem-gender-guesses%E2%80%A6.1626628/ Here are photos of the same 2 today. I’m not seeing distinctively male feathers on the redder...

    2 sets of chicks, soon to be 3… advice please!

    Hey y’all. I have 2 set of 6 chicks, one around 7 weeks, one around 11 weeks old. All regular sized pullets, no bantams. They’re currently cooped separately at night but together in a fenced yard all day. They mostly stay/move around in their individual groups but will occasionally (accidentally...

    Ameraucanas or Easter Eggers?

    Hi y’all! These were labeled as Ameraucanas (pullets) when I got them as babies… but I have my doubts now! They’re about 10–11 weeks old. Any thoughts on breed or gender? Thanks so much!
