    Which silverudds blue cockerel should we keep?

    We have three silverudds blue cockerels, but we can keep only one. All of them are (still) gentle towards people, each other and the pullets. They are 3,5 months old. Which one should we keep?

    Feed

    Hey there! I read an article a while ago about feeding laying hens grower feed with oyster shells/eggshells on the side instead of layer crumble because layer feed lacks the animal proteins needed for chickens to thrive as well as all-around diversity. I read that laying hens do best on 20%...

    2 Swedish Flowers, 1 Splash Amerauacana - Dallas TX

    Hey all!! I’ve got two Swedish Flower Hen pullets I’m looking to sell, unfortunately they aren’t the color I was wanting in the breed and I want to keep my flock as small as I can while living in the city. Both SFHs are pullets and the Amerauacana splash is a cockerel. The two SFHs I’d prefer...

    What exactly are these?

    I am new to chickens (well, been a long time since I've had any). I have some questions... 1) is the little Red a bantam? She's the same age (no more than a couple days younger) but about half the size of the other 2 Reds. 2) what is this cockerel? He was supposed to be sapphire gem but I...

    Easter Egger Pullet or Cockerel?

    Trying to figure out if my 18 week old is a pullet or cockerel. I’ve already determined one to be a cockerel (black) when it started chasing the dog and cats away. He’s very protective of the girls and has a cockerel strut. The other one (white) though isn’t aggressive but has the look of a...

    Blue Ameraucana pullet or cockerel? 11 wks old

    One of my three blue ameraucanas has a comb coming in that looks a little bit fleshier than the others. Not sure if she might be a he or not - I have heard ameraucanas are tricky to sex at only 11 weeks. In every picture she/he is the one closest to the camera. Any educated guesses? Any advice...

    Two chickens from shelter

    A month or two ago I got two chickens from the local animal shelter. The shelter said they were about three months old. One is a cockerel, and the other is a pulled. Would you be able to tell me what the breeds may be?

    4.5 month blue Ameraucana, Sacramento

    Hi everyone! I’m looking to find a home for this sweet, docile, handsome boy. Great with us, kids and the dogs. He’s still a bit dorky and trips over his feet or off of the side of the deck while trying to impress the ladies.. He enjoys beard scratches, foot/leg rubs and is easily picked up and...

    Barred rock pullet or cockerel??

    Got these barred rocks yesterday and the larger of the three seems a bit different. These are our first chickens so I’d like to see what you guys think! Does “she” look different because her legs are a different color or maybe a couple weeks older?

    My friend got a couple Barnevelders from me this spring (hatched April 13th factory sexed) and just sent me this photo (first one in the grass). She said the bird doesn't crow and usually runs away from her but we think they/them looks like a he/him with the big red comb and wattles. I...

    Cockerel alert call when hens laying

    My 10 month old Brahma cockerel does his alert call whenever a Brahma hen goes to lay in any nest box. That is, he will stand about half a metre away, face the hen / nest box after she's gone in, then shout at her. He was hatched (incubator) alongside these x3 girls, but does not behave like...
