Hello!
This is our first time raising chickens. We are trying to figure out what sex each of our chicks are. They are about 14 weeks old now. After some research, I am guessing we have 2 sultans (1 male, 1 female), 2 silkies (no clue) and 1 maybe 2 plymouth rock (guessing 1 male, 1 female). The...
Bought a coop for our two 5-week-old chicks off a local farmer and they offered us to take some of their day-olds also. As tempting as it was to take a bunch, we decided to add just two to our flock since we are worried one of our older chicks could end up male (😞) leaving our other one alone...
Hello,
We retired from the military and I couldn’t wait to get chickens, but a cancer disgnoses last year left me with an empty coop as we didn’t want to add to our load of stress. This spring, my husband wanting to surprise me brought home four hens from a pullet at our local feed store. 2 Isa...
I am a first time chicken owner. I recently got x7 day-ish old chicks sexed as hens from Orchard Ridge Farm in Gorham, Maine. I am not positive where they source them from, but it is a local hatchery in the north east. My order *should* have included the following, but I am not so certain that I...
Brand new to this! Can anyone more experienced help me determine if these 4.5-week-old chicks are female or not? Unfortunately, I won't be able to keep Roosters where I live. Bonus if you could tell me what breed they are! :)
As you can see, they had almost identical "chipmunk" patterns as...
My two goslings are starting to get their feathers and I’m trying to figure out what kind of geese I have and potentially their genders if anyone has any guesses. I think I have a male and a female and I’m sick between thinking they are Toulouse or African
The first two photos are of the...
I would like to know if anyone on here can please help me out and tell me what breed of bantam these little cuties are and their gender. Thank you in advance.
so this is Husk. She’s about 17 weeks old now and I still have no clue what she is. Her sisters are clearly a serama and a cochin, but husk looks like neither. Any ideas? Her wattles are tiny compared to the other two, her comb is small and black. Eyes are very dark, long legs but not too long...
This was supposed to be a lavender Orpington but we could tell early it was a hatchery mixup. Now these copper colored feathers are starting to appear I’m starting to wonder if we have a blue copper maran or some sort of mix. What do you think?
Hello all.
I am new here and also new to chicken. I went to my feed store about 2 months ago and they had those chicks in a bin. The bin c ok clearly stated black copper maran pullet.
Well, I took this one home because she was black and she had feathered feet with almost no comb. But over...
Hi! So I'm having a hard time telling what breeds these two are. I remember purchasing a calico princess, and a buff orpington, and potentially a golden comet. I know one of my chicks is a buff orpington and he is also my Cockerel.
But the ones in my pictures below number one and number two I'm...
I got Chicks-bantam from tractor supply for a dollar each because they are "old" at 3-4 weeks.
They could not tell me the breeds though. Can somebody tell me the breed of these two Chicks?
Thanks so much!

Hi I have 5 chicks and no clue the breed or gender. They are 3 weeks and because I don't know what breeds I'm finding it hard to sex them. I'm not allowed to keep cockerels so would love to know ASAP so I can find them homes. Here are some pictures, I have numbered each chick from 1-5 TIA
Hi friends!
So I have 8 chicks, two were labeled “assorted Polish crested”. The one absolutely looks like a Polish, but I’m unsure on this black one. Someone said he might be a crevecoeur, but I’m not sure how to tell the difference? He’s about 5 weeks old in this photo and he just started...
Hello! I have several cream legbars, but in a group that I raised last year from chicks only one ended up being a rooster. He and one of the hens actually looked like twins for a little while until he started getting oranger at the top and then all sorts of vibrant colors different from the...
