    Eleven week old Mystic Onyx - Rooster or Hen?

    Our Mystic Onyx, Gracie, has been exhibiting some dominating behaviors (chest bumping and flailing out her head and neck feathers), at another hen. From her feather coloration, I’m suspecting she may be a cockerel. Any ideas if she’s actually a Cash or Elvis? She was the most curious chick from...

    EE Hen or Roo? Bawwking this morning at 6am 14-15weeks old estimated?

    Hi! This is my first time owing chickens I got them sexed from the fantastic and amazing Long Island Poultry Farm. I estimate 14 weeks old maybe? “She” is an Olive Egger. I noticed her behavior is more “up right” frequently ruffling neck feathers and jumping face on at other chicks, chasing the...

    One of my Wyandottes. Hen or Cockrell?

    This is Zee. I'm thinking Zee is a cockrell, but I really don't know. She/He is differnt looking in feathering then my other two and they have the rose combs and this one does not. The tail feathers are higher. So I would like you other chicken lovers out there to give me your opinions. Thank...

    Hen or Roo??

    Hi everyone, I just joined and from reading other threads, I think I know the answer but I want to be sure. So I've raised Henrietta since a chick and we always though she was a hen. We have recently introduced new mature hens and now she is mounting them, chasing them and making this gawd...

    Easter Eggers- hens or Roos? Almost 6 weeks old

    Hi chicken friends. I have 4 chicks total- 2 EEs and 2 Isa Browns. I’m unsure of the sex of the ees. I basically adopted them from someone who did not know how to raise chicks. Those combs are making me nervous. Any input would be appreciated greatly! The last photo, the EE is in the back.

    Hen or Roo (Easter Egger, 12 weeks old)

    Experts, what do you think? Hen or roo? I have some other roo ee's who have pronounced hackle and saddle feathers than Parsnip here, but Parsnip is larger than the hens. Thanks in advance, Allyson

    Are these Rhode Island Reds Pullets?

    I have two Rhode Island reds that are both turning 7 weeks tommrow and I think one of them may be a Cockrell but I’m not sure as this is my first time raising chicks. Pics 1-2 is the one I think has a slight chance. I have 5 others the same age and that one just acts different and is sounding...

    Hen or Roo Blue laced red Wyandotte and Splash Wyandotte

    I just bought these BLRW and Splash Wyandottes. Hatched early March, so they’re about 6 weeks old. I know, I know, they’re still young but any guesses!?! They’re supposed to be pullets bc they were ordered from a hatchery and sexed but we know that’s not 100% accurate. Please tell me they...

    Orpingtons colour and breed confirmation

    I bought chocolate Orpington eggs to hatch. 3 of the eggs did hatch and this is what came out. I believe I have 1x chocolate rooster, 1x chocolate hen and 1 splash? Hen seems to light shades of brown. Also they are smaller than I expected them to be (5 months in this photo).

    Hen or rooster

    I’m super stressed , this one has crowed around 83o in the morning I have no idea how old or if it’s a hen or rooster, and I don’t like the idea I have to give pearl up. I live in the city where you can’t have roosters. Any ideas of age or hen or rooster? Thanks in advance!

    Frizzle gene.... how does it work?

    So I have a frizzled cochin chick about 4 months old. I dont know if its a hen or roo yet (if you can tell by the picture please let me know) but I was wondering how the frizzle gene works. If its a hen will she pass the gene down to her chicks? What about if its a roo? I do know that you can't...

    What breed is this? TSC label error? And gender?

    I bought these two chicks as “Cuckoo Marans” from TSC. 🧐 I’m guessing Sapphire Gems or something similar? Also, the combs are still super duper small but are those red waffles coming in strong trying to tell me something? Nearly 6 weeks old. Any guesses for gender and breed?

    Hello Everyone!, New to this forum but I have 4 already laying hens for a little over a year now and just recently got 4 more "hens" but I am questioning my Bluebell Prairie that is about 6-7weeks now. Cleo is very friendly and curious, loves to be held or roost on your hand, and gets along...

    Cockerel or Pullet Barred Rock

    I got this chicken from a swap advertised as a hen. It was born in early December. So far I haven’t heard any crowing, but her tail feathers are looking very full. I also think I see some tiny saddle feathers coming in (maybe like an inch long?). I was also told after the fact that barred rock...

    Easter Egg 15 weeks old hen or rooster?

    First time chicken owner. My chickens are 15 weeks old now. I’m pretty positive it’s a hen, however, this one has been fighting since I put it outside. There’s no comb development yet and no crowing. All my silkie Roos have combs and have crowed already. Thoughts?? Is she just trying to...
