    Two orpingtons, girls or guys?

    I posted these guys a few weeks ago but was told to wait until fully feathered. Both from the same clutch and about 10 weeks old now.

    5 weeks silver laced wyandottes - slow feathering indicates possibly roos to be?

    So I have purchased 3 SLW, 3 barnevelder and 1 Australorp from a breeder. So far I am about 70% convinced that there are 2 female barnevelder, 1 male barnevelder and 1 male Australorp. But I am still baffled what the 3 silver laced wyandottes are. They are about 5 weeks when the following...

    Gender confirmation

    Hi! We have some young chickens but pretty sure we heard some crowing this morning. Now we are trying to figure out if we potentially have more than one rooster. These are the 3 (personality wise) we think could be cockerels. We are nearly certain the gray silkie is male. We’d love your...

    Is eggshell DNA testing viable?

    This company, IQ bird testing, has been recommended to me. I noticed on there it has the option to test eggshells. That would be great to send them what I’ve got from the incubator right from the get go. But if it’s dried out and whatever other issues there may be with this validity— is it possible?

    Consistently hatching more males than females

    I feel like I’m consistently hatching out more males than females. It seems each time I do a hatch I will get 60-70% males. I thought maybe it was just a one time thing but this is my 5th hatch and only 6 out of 18 were female. I had someone that was supposed to come pick up 7 chicks this...

    Silkie Sexing… Is it too early to tell? 8-9 weeks

    I’m guessing white is a pullet.. maybe… ugh idk.. and black is a cockerel. (just like my last two silkies). I do have a third that I’m 80% positive is a hen. ( I’ll take a pic later to see what you all think) What do you all think about these two though? They are about 8-9 weeks old. 🙏🙏🙏

    3 Week Old Chicks Fighting Like Roosters

    For the last few days I’ve noticed my now three week old chicks have been shaping up to each other and fighting like roosters, jumping up and lashing out with their feet. Just wondering if female chicks normally do this too or if I’ve probably got all roosters? 🐓 Thanks 😊
