    Dying chicks

    Breed ID

    Dying chicks

    Hens or roosters early guesses

    What do i do with all these roosters? I know i will probably keep number 1 because it is very sweet and tame. I guess someone might want the belgian d'uccle roosters because they are a more unique breed... And i guess i can eat number 3 because that one has the worst personality ever. I just...

    Trying to understand Sex linked

    I am trying to understand sex linked colors. It looks like my black olive egger is going to end up being a rooster. So i was wondering if i bought a bunch of cream legbar or barred rock hens. Then could i technically breed them and end up with sex linked chicks. Or would that not work being the...
