Q: How can I tell a hen from a rooster When they get to 5 months
4 years ago1 Answer
- A: At 5 months old most breeds of chickens will be nearing maturity. Any Roosters would have brighter red combs and larger wattles that their counter part hens. Roosters also tend to display more aggressive and dominant behaviors but not always. You may see some of these signs as early as 4-8 weeks in some breeds but others may take much longer. Crowing is also a telling sign, that may start early on. So in summary, early comb and wattle development, aggressive or dominant behavior or crowing can be indicators, but not always. The true sign is when mature you will see an egg from a hen and the Rooster will crow.4 years agoHelpful?

They are very sweet birds, all ten made it and they started laying in 20 weeks. Only 50% lay a green egg, the other half is brown.

Cute, but not what I expected
4 years ago
They don't lay large green eggs, but medium creamy pinkish eggs. So Hoover's is pretty off there, especially seeing other people had the same problem. Not getting the olive color was disappointing, but at least the chickens themselves are very cute.

Make better choices shipping live animals
2 months ago
Upon arrival 2 of the chickens perished, a few hours later 3 more were gone. I ended up with 5 out of the 10. I tried to contact them to let them know and no one got back to me. The chicken that made it are beautiful and thriving. Instead of shipping day old chicks priority maybe opt for express especially for the price. You should be able to afford to get the chicks there next day, not 3 days later.
