- Think you might have a rooster?
Here is a quick guide on how to tell if you have a hen or rooster. You can tell as early as a day old, but there are some telltale signs as young roosters become 2-3 weeks old.

Best info about roos that I've seen on YT
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
Take it out, mines is so aggressive and the owner knew 😒🙄
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.
Thank you hopefully my roasters will get along also they hatched together on my kitchen table so will grow up together I hope that helps them get along
Cats running around in your background, nice brings me back to my days a long time ago, when had chickens 🐓, I never got into the know ,this deep, I mostly collected eggs,a sold fryers, 135 eggs per day, they were never tame like yours, I wasn’t in a pet kinda deal , I was a young man,and was just making gas moneys to be able to drive my truck around, back and forth to school, thanks Tara, vary interesting 🧐 you again ROCK, thanks 🙏 BigAl California.

Another great video. Thank you for sharing with us.❤️
Another good video with great information. Thanks !
That was very interesting Tara. thank you honey. God Bless.
Great information! Thank you!
We had a rooster that would only attack my aunt will one day he got her in the leg BAD!!! Well we had fried rooster for supper that night. My uncle was so mad that he didn't eat supper that night. My aunt had killed our only adult bure blood Road Island Red rooster I guess that rooster was worth a few dollars by the way my preacher Uncle cussed that day... LOL That was the only time I hear that man cuss and even now 50 some years latter I still laugh about it....
Much love and prayers be blessed in Jesus name... BBE..
Love his slippers
Great video Tara
Super super helpful! ❤I’m waiting for more content! 🎉
Tara, I used to tie fishing flies (commercially) and we had large cardboard bins FULL of rooster necks (and saddles). Some necks were super high quality - from farmers that specialized in breeding birds with long, quality hackles. They were beautiful (and EXPENSIVE). You might consider growing birds for tying hackles, too for extra $$.
Thank you super helpful!!!!
Hello Tara, you did an amazing job. Thank you for sharing this with us. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓
😂 this is actually kind of interesting.....came for the Tara, maybe stayed to learn about chickens 🤣 but I have to get to work.
Hahaha! I'm just over here trying to get everyone addicted to chickens
@@tarashomestead6667 I *knew* it 😂
There was so much information packed in that video! I learned a bunch and your presentation is so good. And 1000 subs to boot? Noice! Best, Paul.
Thank you!!!
Tara very smart to have 2 channels you definitely made the right decision as the old saying don't put all your eggs in one basket 😂 p.s.marketing is not the only thing your smart in you've acquired a lot of knowledge in the past couple of years as you learn you educate us I like the content keep up your excellent work 👍😃✌️🍷🐣🚜
Your videos are the best and I hope you can keep it up😊 love the vids 👌🏽❤️
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!
Yup Big 👍's up.. Great video.. Roscoe is a Handsome little fellow.. Hes got a very claming crow.. Its great that you try to relocate your extra ones.. I was raised. (Not a bad or mean way) its was all the circle of life on the Farm. Noodles.. Hamburgers
Thank you... Heres a ❤ back
Loved this thank you! Can you make a video on how you have tamed your chickens? They seem so calm.
You have to handle them as babies, not too frequently, but often. Mine fall asleep on my and they are 2 weeks old.
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.
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.
Good video. !!
He’s gorgeous.
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
Another good video 🐔
Chicken noodle soup sounds good to me
Lol, every time I would go for hen chicks, most of them turned out becoming a roo. They were even labelled as pullets.
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...
;)
Nice video, new subscriber here
Is your bantam roo a Millie Fuller? Just curious beautiful rooster ..... Also at about a month old roos will start getting his spur bumps not always 100% but generally around a month old roos will have a pronounced spur bump on each leg. Great video love your chickens.
The bantams are always SOOOO cute! Where have your gotten your bantams from?
👍👌🇨🇦❤, is this xxx, 🤔😉🤣, great stuff Tara, so guys are messy and girls just flow, got it
🤣🤣🤣
I bought ten day old chicks from my pet chicken. ONE WAS a rooster. LOL exactly 10%.
THANK YOU TARA - YOU’RE AMAZING I’ve been trying to figure out the sex of my week and a half old Australorp
He is adorable!! What breed is he? How is his temperament?
My favourite chicken is Curry, with rice and roti.

Har har, yes, at 4:15 you can see forecat scurry by quickly succeeded by aftcat replicating a parallel course! :oD
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.
From what I've researched as a new chicken raiser, the challenging each other is the norm for chicks to figure out their pecking order.
@@glutenfreejm3 Thank you for your reply. That's good to know. As it turned out, they are all females and laying eggs now. I was concerned for nothing. 😊
With my own chickens, the look of their tail feathers seems to be the best detector. If the tail feathers start to point waaaaayy out, and then with time begin to get the side saddled feathers too, annddd with a more aggressive demeanor. That’s what I see in 2 of mine. I have Rhode Island’s, and Americanos, and Easter Eggers.
lol Orpingtons are what you might say, strongly motivated. Sweet birds though. Perty as a flower too. :)
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
Thoughts on spurs on the Roos?
I do not remove spurs.
interesting
😊
I have a bielefelder roo i named oliver
Leteral
You are absolutely beautiful sweet amazing young woman
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.
Then what is a hen's species if not a chicken?
@@debraanderson7086
The species is Red Jungle Fowl.
