    Barnevelders and Plymouth Rock- boys or girls?

    Hello, We have 3 chicks- 2 x Barnevelder and 1 x Plymouth Rock. Hoping they are all pullets, and I have been searching through everyone’s photos here- but not sure as we don’t have any others to compare with! They are about 4 weeks old (the Plymouth Rock is about a week younger). Thanks!

    2 extra chickens from chickensfrombackyard.com, does yellow spot indicate being a male?

    We ordered 3 female chicks from chickensforbackyards.com; a Plymouth Rock, a Rhode Island White. We got 2 extra and we are worried they might be females. This chick has a yellow spot is it a male?

    Hello, everyone :) This is my first post and I wanted to use it to clear out some doubts about fowl pox. First of all, an 8 week old plymouth hen started to show little black scabs on her comb and eyes 5 days ago, so I immediately proceeded to isolate her from the rest of the flock. I have...

    Hello! I am new to the backyard poultry crew but have been using this site for SO MANY THINGS! We currently have a flock of 6. We have gotten 4 of the 6 from a local breeder and ordered them as pullets, as we live in the city where sadly roosters are not welcome. 3 of our originals are laying...

    Territorial Barred Rock Rooster. Advice appreciated.

    We have a barred rock rooster that got attacked a week+ ago. He was very sweet when I first brought him in (I thought he was a hen). But these last few days he gets aggressive when I feed him or give him water. He bites my hand and I believe tries to mount it in dominance. When I let him out of...

    I think my barred rock is dying, please help

    Hello! I desperately need help. I have a Barred Rock that I believe is laying internally, and I don’t know what to do. I discovered she wasn’t doing well when I picked her up and her abdomen was as hard as a softball. I tried to feel around in her vent, and I’m honestly not sure what I felt. The...

My kids want to name them so bad. lol When I look back on when they were little, number 2 looked most like a rooster...
