    Weird Comb on Month Old BYM

    The mother is very unusual for an olive egger. Looks like one parent of her was laced. Her comb is also unusual. It looks close to a Silkie type comb. As far as gender goes, the fact that her facial skin is dark makes it a lot more difficult because that color will mask any redness. And that is...

    Feed Store Bantam Bin ID Needed

    1 is probably an old English game bantam. 2 Golden Sebright 3 frizzle black Cochin 4 Probably a Millie Fleur D'Uccle, but could be a buff Brahma. A clear picture of the comb would determine which it is. Brahmas have pea combs, D'Uccles have single combs. 5 maybe black tailed buff Japanese bantam

    Feed Store Bantam Bin ID Needed

    I am not sure on chick 2. Nothing I can think of is an exact match. It has yellow legs, so not an old English game. Other breeds I dismissed are Rhode Island red bantam and Japanese bantam. It could be an Easter egger. If it is not clear in a few weeks, post again.

    Silkie: male or female?

    You're welcome. Stay tuned for other opinions, though.

    Silkie: male or female?

    The young one has a bulbous comb. I think both are males. Blue or blue splash.

    What breed is this hen?

    Austra white seems right. Yep, I'm rhyming today. This is a hybrid between Australorps and white Leghorns.

    What Breed is my Rooster?

    Those pictures are better. I think she's a female black Minorca. I see no male specific feathering. Minorcas are known for having very large combs and white earlobes. They lay large white eggs.

    What breed of chicken do I have?

    I think she's a regular barnyard mix, and probably a bantam was one parent. I don't see any obvious signs of pure breeds being involved in her parentage, so maybe both parents were mixed breeds themselves. She's healthy and cute. That's more important than having a pure breed.

    One of Two Options for this Chick

    Maybe just a hatchery quality partridge rock. The dark chipmunk pattern and eye stripe are not typical. It could also be something else. I think it is a case of time will tell. Post an update in a few weeks if you can.

    What Breed is my Rooster?

    The pictures are not great. My impression is that the black bird may be female, and that it is maybe a Minorca mix or Australorp mix.

    Easter egger mix, hen or roo?

    That is a definite cockerel.

    Help identify my rooster

    Silkie mixed with larger breeds. Someone had to have white earlobes, since he does, so maybe Leghorn or Andalusian. It's impossible to know his exact mix.

    Still trying to figure this one out

    I think it is a cockerel, too. If you have other roosters they might be keeping him from crowing and mating. I will be surprised if it turns out to be a pullet because the comb is big, and the hackle feathers seem long.

    Sebrights

    Still thinking they are boys, but time will tell.

    Sebrights

    Both genders should have spikes at the back of their combs. My hunch is that these are both males because females usually have flat combs until they are older. But hopefully I am wrong.
