Thanks for the reply. Someone at TS thought they were Bluebell eggers, but these guys now and a when they were younger, look nothing like any photos I find of that mix. I guess we'll just keep waiting. :)

Thanks for your reply. I reached out to Hoovers a couple times and no response. I've tried to do my research, but I keep coming up against dead ends. Someone at TSC said they were Prairie Bluebell eggers, but the NB chicks looked nothing like any PBEs that I found. We'll just wait and see, I...

I bought these two from the local Tractor supply. They are 8 weeks old and usually by now I am seeing some differences between the poulets and cockerels, but these two have given me mixed signals. Their combs are the same and growing at the same rate. Their feet are about the same. The one...

My 8 chicks are now 5 weeks old. At about a week I would crush some organic rolled oats in my hand and call them. I have grit available all the time. I did that once a day and it didn't take long for them all to come running to the corner of the brooder. As they got older I added tiny...

thanks!

This is all so new to me 😅

They are so beautiful.🥰 I was hoping for a Sapphire Gem roo as I heard they have wonderful temperaments (unlike my Rhode Island red roo, Ralph). Boy was he a meanie! 😅

They are a Blue Plymouth Rock and Barred Plymouth rock cross. They are not a recognized breed.

Thank you! 😊
