Would love more more Easter egger differences

My family ordered four pullets, and received seven "just in case", of various breeds. They're about a month and a half old now. There is one that is larger, more dominant, and is starting to crow. We have read that in the absence of a rooster, a hen can take that position and in rare cases even crow. They're all so young still though, only time will tell.

😂i believe they throw a male in with every 9 females just so they can sell them. Buy ten boys i bet they will all be boys.

Thanks I have Chanteclers and they have the pea comb, and I have been wondering, now I will go check their comb, looking for 3 lines.

I have 2 roosters with 10 hens. I don't know if I would say that they "get along", as they chase each other around the yard a lot and they're clearly competitive. There's been no actual fighting, and when they're roosting in the coop, there's no conflict at all. I have even found them snuggling up together.

The bantams are always SOOOO cute! Where have your gotten your bantams from?

Chicken noodle soup sounds good to me

He is adorable!! What breed is he? How is his temperament?

THANK YOU TARA - YOU’RE AMAZING I’ve been trying to figure out the sex of my week and a half old Australorp

Hi Tara Thanks for all the great information. Around the 6.25 mark you show your hen with a big comb and waddle. Do you remember how she looked at the age of 6 to 8 weeks? Did she start growing the waddle and comb early in life or later? I have 2 7 week old Buff Orpington’s with combs almost as big as the bird that I know is a rooster. Thanks again for the great channel. Brian

I bought ten day old chicks from my pet chicken. ONE WAS a rooster. LOL exactly 10%.

Lol, every time I would go for hen chicks, most of them turned out becoming a roo. They were even labelled as pullets.

Thank you! I couldn't get my girls to get into the water. I will try the bugs in the water! Sounds great!

Roscoe is sure nuff a perty little puppy! :) Some are a little tough to pick out. I've got a couple Marans that I checked when they hatched and knew they were boys. But at a week old it was obvious when they started growing fred flinstone feet. lol Got a week old Lavender Ameraucana that I haven't made much effort to check but appears to be a girl just at a glance. Don't matter either way. It's so sticking cute!! hahaha I'll be getting more to go with it next spring.

Super super helpful! ❤I’m waiting for more content! 🎉

My chicken has started to crow and quit laying eggs. How can I get her to start laying eggs again. Doesn't bother me that she makes a funny crowing sound and no I don't Have a rooster. Thank you

😊

You have some gorgeous roosters. I have a blue Astrolorp that is a rooster, about 6 weeks. I'm hoping he's the only one. He's a looker, too. I'm hoping he'll help us get some chicks. Great video, Thanks!

Great video! Thank you! I have 13 7 week olds I hatched. I have decided to just trans all my roosters. I wonder if I'll get more eggs... ;)

Hello Tara, you did an amazing job. Thank you for sharing this with us. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓

I have a bielefelder roo i named oliver

Just subscribed to your channel. Great videos. Where do you purchase your chicks from? You are absolutely correct about the Orpingtons. Very friendly breed also.

Thank you super helpful!!!!

A grown hen is not a chicken. A chicken is a certain age. It is just that in the meat industry fowls do not live above the age of a chicken.

Knowing nothing about chickens and stating to homestead, I recently bought 13 chickens and 3 ducks. I was told there were 1, possibly 2 rosters in the bunch. Turns out, looks as if I have at least 4 and likely 5 roosters!! Only one roster is vocal and runs things but he's now being physically challenged by a MUCH larger male of a different breed. I don't want any to become chicken soup, can you tell me how to find new homes for my excess males? I'm pretty sure the people that sold me these chickens knew. The youngsters were born in July and I got them 2 weeks ago. Also, in the meanwhile, how do I keep everyone safe? I love all my babies lol

God I love how you explain everything, you are really cool and not boring thanks I hope you make more videos 🧚🏿‍♀️🌻👼🙏🥑🐾🐶💙

Do you still do you tube you are awesome thanks🙏👼🌻🧚🏿‍♀️🐾🐓🐣

Thanks I just found your channel I like how you speak thanks🌻🐣👼🐾🧚🏿‍♀️🐓

Best info about roos that I've seen on YT

I keep gallon jugs of water in my chest freezer then place them in the water bowls so my chickens have cool water all day. No heat losses in 12 years in hot humid SC. My birds are free range and when it's exceptionally hot I water the back yard.

Thanks for the info. Will definitely check out the coops, we've been looking for a smaller mobile option. We have had a lot of success with fermenting feed to improve gut health and immunity and the chickens love it too. I'll look further into your videos but could you please do a video on chicken handling if you haven't already? Your chickens are very comfortable with you picking them up. Thx!

Awesome job on your videos. So helpful. I appreciate your time and effort. 🐣🐥🐤🐔🐔🐔

He’s gorgeous.

Hi Tara, Thank you so much for this video. I've watched many trying to figure out what I have, but your video looks super helpful. Now I can't wait to look them over. I ordered 5 female chicks and I'm concerned I have all roosters. 😬 They are 7 weeks (buff orpingtons) and I notice sometimes a few of them challenge each other for pecking order. Does this automatically mean they are roosters? So far no dark red combs or waddles, but combs are light pink with one a smidge darker than pink.

At some point we're going to have our first culling if my husband doesn't allow the cockerel to live (I'm working on keeping him alive as long as he's not a jerk). Wow, you have a lot of chickens! I'd love to see how you integrate the chicks as they get older. I have 8 week old and 4 week olds and they're still separated, not sure how to integrate since I've never done it before. ❤️💛💜

So chickens love rhododendrons? Good, I wanted to get rid of mine, I'll move them to where we're building the run. Loving your channel so far, new sub as I'm starting to homestead now that I've moved to an area zone RA and can do so! However, working around having very heavily wooded land and not wanting to destroy that habitat. Great tips, thank you! ❤️💛💜

Loved this thank you! Can you make a video on how you have tamed your chickens? They seem so calm.

Thanks
