    Abandoned bird - what breed?

    I was driving through a remote stretch of mountains not too far from where I live, and at one of the scenic pull offs, found this beauty. I’m guessing someone had just dropped her off (at least I believe it’s a hen), as there aren’t any homes for miles. She approached my vehicle immediately...

    Help ID teenage chickens please

    Hi! We got week-old chicks from the local farm and fleet in Wisconsin, but the lady on duty wasn't sure what they were. We also think that one may be a cockerel. Any ideas? The tan stripes are really throwing me off - maybe they will change over time?

    Early Developing Cockerel?

    I have three 2-week-old buff Orpingtons and I know it is really early but one’s comb already looks red and thicker than the others. Can you say if this is a cockerel yet?
