    What sort of chicken is this?

    I put this in the games and jokes section but it was moved!! 😂 Headless chicken of the apocalypse 😉 If you want to guess the breed for fun anyway.... Here she is in her nonheadlessness glory (along with some friends)

    Golden laced polish- pullet?roo?

    I've been arguing cockerel the whole time. Those pointy saddles are still there! Chest lacing is coming good though. Not so spotty, more defined. Unable to assess trimmed crest. Legs don't look dainty. So, I'm curious now!! I have 12 week olds and it is plainly obvious which sex they are...

    Hermaphrodite chicken?

    I vote not a BSL too. It's common for chicks to get mixed up. Looks just like my English cuckoo Marans.

    Pullets kicking nest bedding around

    Adding: you say hens but I read young pullets who haven't come into lay yet. Is that right?

    Pullets kicking nest bedding around

    The young ones don't understand that the nest boxes are for nesting yet. When they come into lay, they will. I would either exclude them for now, but if that isn't possible then either put a lip around so they can't chuck it out, or use mats. Even old towels will do if you don't want to buy...

    Wattles on 6wk old silkie

    Jury's out on the ginger one, being that it is not a walnut comb. Dark one is a cockerel.

    Rooster introducing!!! HELP

    Are you letting them out to free range together or in an enclosed run? If in a run, ensure plenty of escape routes to different roosts, things they can hide behind or jump up onto, so that either he or they can have refuge from being chased and caught. Don't be surprised if a) the older hens...

    Sexing 10wk old Wyandottes. Any Dottie experts??

    Thank you! Yes they are pure Wyandottes. The pullet is a White Partridge I believe (rather unusual colour), and the cockerel is a mix of Silver and Gold Pencilled (one parent of each).

    What is this chicken? I'm a newbie

    I think NatJ is right. The most likely explanation for a chicken that doesn't exactly match any particular breed criteria, is that they are a mix of different breeds.
