Please help me save the babies! We hatched 8 chicks (6/27/24). We have been hand raising them since. 4 of the 8 are confirmed cockerels (just began crowing). We are located in Ventura County (SoCal), and hoping to find them new homes before my husband processes them!
Type: White Plymouth Rock
9 weeks old
Hello!
Need your help! I would love to know if this chicken is a pullet or cockerel. Please share how you can tell 😊 Thank you!
Hi, I'm new to chickens. I have six 9-week-old silkies. I just moved them outside three days ago, and one of my chick's crop hasn't felt full at night for two days now. I see her eating and drinking, but her crop doesn't feel full like the others. Today her dropping had a bit of a reddish spot...
Hey BYC, I’ve got a couple questions. I just had to swap my cockerel out for a pullet. She’s being quarantined. The problem is she, along with the rest of the chickens at the farm I got her at, don’t particularly like human touch. She looks to be about 9-10 weeks old, an ISA brown & leghorn mix...
These two are stumping me. I've read conflicting sexing info regarding hackle feather shape, wattles and combs and I'm questioning if they are both roos because of this or just one of them or neither. One has rounder hackle feathers and a flat comb area with a wattle and they are very pink...
I have a Rhode Island Red, I need help determining the gender of this chicken. Also keep in mind I saw it fighting the other rooster with its neck feathers puffed up. Any help would be appreciated :):).
