I have a month or so old silkie chick with a single comb and I’m slightly worried she’s a roo because it looks like some wattles are coming in too. Any suggestions? This is my first time having a silkie!
Hi.
We recently were blessed with 2 buff orpington chicks. We have a few other chicks and 2 laying hens already. These particular buffs have me wondering are they hen or rooster? They are around 4 to 5 weeks old from what we were told.
I know you all see this exact post so many times...
I have 5 Rhode Island reds of 12 weeks old. I am not a chicken expert but i would like to know if I can see gender differences yet. They do not have combs or wattles yet. They all seem the same to me and don’t act very dominant or different from each other. I would appreciate if someone could...
I have 4 silver barnevelders I don’t know if they are male or female. Two have more solid black feathers and two have more of the black and white female like feather patterns but one of them has more roo like appearance? They all have different sized tails, waddles, and combs.
Hi everyone! Trying to figure out if this is a cockerel they should be around 8/9 weeks. I am thinking the first one in the front will be, also wondering about the one in the back thinking pullet on that one. They are supposed to be ameraucanas.
Thank you for the help!:)
I am new to owning chickens and need help identifying this one! 😅 I bought what was supposed to be Starlight Green Egger pullets from TS, and this one they gave me is definitely not that (at least doesn’t look anything like the others)! Wondering what breed it may be and if it’s looking like hen...
I have 2 Americauna chickens, one I believe is a rooster for sure because he’s been crowing for a while and just has the overall look of a rooster in my opinion. The other one is much smaller so I always thought she was a hen but lately she also started crowing with him and tends to spar with...
This is my first year with backyard chickens and I purchased what was advertised as Pullets from my local Rural King. I got 3 Brahma, one buff and 2 white, and 1 New Hampshire. If I’m guessing they’re probably 5-7 weeks old and growing like weeds. Just wondering if my Buff Brahma may actually be...
Help! This is only my second round of chicks, and my first round of Easter eggers. I bought 3 chicks from the local feed store. Sold as Easter egger pullets. But I think one (currently named Miss Cleo) might actually be a mister? Baby photo for reference and then group photos to see development...
one of my chicks that i’ve suspected of being a rooster has a different head shape than the others (front) the forehead is bigger? can this be an indicator for sexing or are they just a little unique?
I return with my 3rd post of these 3 chickens, who are now almost 4 months old (3 months 3 weeks). Hopefully they will finally be old enough to definitively sex! I've been confident for a while that I have 1 pullet (n.o 1), and 1 rooster (n.o 3), but n.o 2 is throwing me off. Has a smaller comb...
Hello. I’m trying to figure out if our 7 week old Easter egger is a rooster? I know it’s early, but have heard “her” making a sound almost like a rooster crow. Thanks for any help.
I have a 4 week old Serama that I am wondering if anyone can tell if it’s a roo or hen, the breeder mentioned all her breeding hens have very large red combs for the breed too to make it even more difficult 😉
Hi, I have 2 21 week old chickens that I’m not sure if they are hens or roosters. The light brown one I think is a hen. she’s been sitting in a nesting box a lot latelyThe dark brown I’m wondering if it is a slow growing rooster. It has some hackle feathers on its neck, in the last week or two...
