It's a beautiful chicken whatever it is 😊

Ha ha isn't it a mystery! It has always been a bit bigger than it's hatch mates and definitely top of the flock. But it leaves me guessing!

I asked about this one a few weeks ago but I'm still in doubt. It did make an effort at a crow sound once or twice...

I believe these are 6 weeks old today ish. Do you think these are both pullets?

Any ideas?

I think one of them has been laying soft shelled eggs on and off as we were finding evidence in the box. One has been going downhill for a while, 5 years old. But I don't know that she has been trying to lay or not. We have 7 hens, no roosters. Found this today and scooped it out of the nesting...

Thank you. I wanted to be completely for sure before I take him to live at a friend's farm.

One of our broody hens hatched 3 eggs a friend gave us. We cannot keep roosters where we live, and I am 99% sure this is a rooster! But, he is 12 weeks old and still hasn't crowed. We have had to get rid of some before that turned out to be roosters and they all started trying to crow by 9...

Okay. I didn't know. Thanks for the reply.

They were fertilized eggs given to us. I don't know what all moms there were.

Just curious if we could tell what mom was based on his color and feathers. He's beautiful regardless. :)

About 9 weeks old. Fuzzy zoomed in picture with bad coloring doesn't do justice to the beautiful colors and red tones on the wings. Please also confirm it's a "he". We know dad was a crested cream legbar. I don't know what mom was. Just wondered if it was possible to tell what breed mom was...

Yes and maybe it's just that we haven't really looked at that area enough to know what it really did look like before, but it seems like there's like a white bump there too? maybe it's always looked like that and we just never really noticed? She's been free-ranging the yard almost everyday, so...

we noticed this on one of our hens beaks in my daughter says two of our other chickens also looked like they have the same thing. I haven't looked myself yet. They are all over 2 years old.

Oh dear :eek:We can't have roosters where we live. I need to get working finding them new homes.

Hello! We recently had 2 broody hens, and we decided to give each hen some fertile eggs. We had one hen in her own run because she was an "outcast" and we gave her 4 eggs. And another hen in with a flock of 4 got 2 eggs. All of the eggs hatched the exact same day, and they are now 8 weeks old...

Hello! We have 6 3 week old chicks. The father was a Cream Crested Legbar, and the moms where various. I am wondering if the chicks are roosters or pullets Chick A mom was easter egger or americauna Chick B mom was light brahma Chick C mom was Leghorn Chick D mom was easter egger or...

Well, we slipped her in the box at bedtime the other night and they have lived happily ever after since! Whew! So glad

She walks fine. She does hold a leg up sometimes though. The original run is all of those proof, but the addition was only meant for extra space, not to be used solely. That's why this temporary fix can't last.

We can't have roosters where we live. :( This we could try. We kind of tried this with one we thought was nice, but turned out not so much. We can try again with another. Her legs almost look as if she had mites, but we can't find any or evidence of mites, not do any others have any symptoms...
