Definitely a cockerel.

Hello everyone! Brand new emu owner here, I've had these 2 for about a week. I tried unsuccessfully to hatch eggs in the past (so close). Some folks right up the street from us decided to rehome these guys, so I brought them home. They're not super tame but they arent aggressive, they'll eat out...

Long time returning member dropping in to say hi! Its been a while since I've had birds, but I'm back at it :) My chicks are about 4 weeks old now (though I actually dont have any recent pics of them) and just moved to their coop recently. We're working on the run still, but we're over halfway...

Nope, no issues with mixed breeds. They're gorgeous and provide some hybrid vigor ;)

Looks like a light Brahma, I think.

I'd also guess cockerel, looks like its got streamers starting to pop off the crest.

I'd guess boy, with that comb size.

Olive Egger perhaps? Looks like it could be a mix of those two breeds.

Also an Easter Egger, and I'd guess its a cockerel.

Easter Egger cockerel.

Definitely a cockerel.

Cockerel.

My guess would be Cornish X, a meatie.

Looks like a little cockerel right now.

They breed just like all other chickens. And nope, I do not trim vents.

Not all crested breeds start out with a bump, knob, vault (whatever you'd like to call it) as chicks. Many of my Silkies have completely normal heads as hatchlings, then they go on to grow huge crests. I'd expect most of your chicks will have some kind of crest, probably not huge ones, but...

I think I'd contact your local SPCA to see if they have room for the litter and if they'd be willing to take them after they're born. Then I'd promptly call animal control, tell them you know of a pregnant dog who's owner is planning on drowning the litter after they're born and then I'd dump...

Agreed, its a lovely white cockerel.

My first thought on the roos was silver laced Wyandotte mixes...
