    Please Help

    Mine did that too the first couple of days. They probly have not learned how to go into the coop yet. I had to pick them up and put them in the coop a few days until they figured out how to do it alone. Good luck with you babies!

    help with what she is?

    Looks like a D'uccle to me too. Maybe mixed with something else. I have one that has a Mille Le Fluer D'Uccle daddy and an EE Momma. So I guess she is a Bantam EE/D'uccle. She lays little peach colored eggs and she is as sweet as can be. Here is a picture of my "boots" Yours is adorable too!

    What is the best way to break an agressive hen?

    I seperated the mean bird for a few days. Then when I bring her back I will squirt her in the face with a squirt bottle if she goes after anyone. It's kind of like a peck but wont hurt them and they don't realize who is doing it to them so they stay away from everyone. Good luck with your birds!

    If I'd only known, this is what I would've done different thread

    I dug and buried some block (Like the one used to make block walls). I Have 2 dogs, that are now chicken trained, and I sometimes dog sit. The block is mostly buried except for an inch that sticks up above the ground.

    Odd chicken noises

    It's probly normal. My D'Uccle sounds like a grunting frog.

    EE and SLW - 10 Weeks Old

    I think yours are both girls. But if you are still unsure, keep an eye on new feathers (saddle feathers) starting to grow on the middle of it's back like this. Here is my rooster at 10 weeks. My roo also had a pointier tale feathers than the girls did. At 10 weeks mine also started learning to crow.

    shade cloth question

    I use a berlap sheet so that the air can still get thru but creates a nice shade. You can buy it in sheets or rolls.

    EE, Roo or Pullet?

    Thanks, My once sweet bird is turning into a bully. It's the smallest chick I have and it's bullying everyone else around. Maybe it's just small-chick complex?

    EE, Roo or Pullet?

    Here are some updated pics. I noticed in the sun that some of it's black feathers are iridescent green. Does that mean anything? I don't know what "it" was mixed with. I can't find anything to compare it to. It has a red/black laced chest. Feathers look roundish. I'm still not sure if it's a...

    Are there partridge Ameraucanas?

    I love my EE's too. At 9 weeks still trying to figure out if one is a roo and what it will look like when it grows up. There are two great threads on here that are all about EE's and "growing up easter egger". I'd attach the link to the thread I just don't know how. Do a search of those titles...

    EE, Roo or Pullet?

    I'm still about 50% sure as well. Thought I would know by now. I keep stalking my chicken coop to see if I see any signs or hear any crowing...but nothing to make me sure of it being a pullet or a roo for sure. Thanks for your input!

    The EE braggers thread!!!

    Quote: Did your EE Roo look like this growing up??? I think I have your rooster's long lost son. I've been holding onto hope that mine isn't a roo. But I haven't seen EE pullets with this coloring so I think all hope is fading. 8 weeks now The red in black one in all these pictures is Gizmo...

    EE, Roo or Pullet?

    I've been searching thru everyone's pictures of their beautiful Easter Eggers. Trying to find one similar to mine. The front chest of "it" looks like a Golden Laced Wyandotte. And the back is, well, red & black . I bought 2 EEs from a lady nearby that hatched a few chicks. One looks like typical...
