We’re new to having chickens and I’m wondering if our 6 week old lavender Orpington is a hen or rooster?

Hello! We started a little flock of six birds. Three are cream legbar, one is serama bantam, and two are lavender orpington. They have brought so much joy and fascination so far! Thinking we can move outside soon once they have some more adult feathers for the youngest ones. They are about 5...

I have 7 roosters, but for now I want to rehome/sell these three first. 1 year old Lavender Orpington roo, named Philip. His girl was killed by an owl the day before Christmas so he has been a little lonely in the flock. He is a sweet boy in need of hens of his own. He is getting picked on by...

I just got straight run lavender Orpington chicks and was wondering if they could be feather sexed or if there was another easy way to tell. They are about 3 or 4 days old. If there isn’t a way to tell at this age what is the earliest age I will be able to tell?

I got a surprise assortment with my last chick order and I have a few one-of-a-kind chicks that I am trying to identify what breed they are to get them some friends of the same breed. The gray one especially needs a friend and I am thinking either Lavender Orpington or Andalusian? Can anyone...
