Well. This EE sexing is hard. tongue.png I would have said both are girls, but I can't envision what Zoe/Joe's profile would be from that angle. I even visited the EE sexing thread and I'm just blind to it. Heheh. I think both birds are beautiful.

Maybe I'll post pics of my chicks so y'all can help me out.

I did my head count! After I noticed the hawk was taken my biddies. I lost 11! All the babies are locked up now. I converted 2 10x10x6 dog kennels to serve as a summer hang out. I was free ranging them with the adults. That didn't work out too well. Once that hawk found them that was the end. But now I know what I have to sale. I have 6-7 week olds. Anyone live in the area and wants some let me know. If not freezer camp at the end of summer! The roo is a french standard splash maran the hens Ameraucacas, EE's and BCM. Most of the EE biddies have feathered shanks.All the marans have feathered shanks.

We got our spring chicks on Sunday.

I think this little cute one that kinda looks like an owl is an Ameraucana. We ordered 12 of them. It's a new breed for us this year!

 

I honestly can't think of anything else in this world that is as cute an Ameraucana chick.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I originally posted the above message and picture in the Ameraucana thread because that is what we ordered however

it was quickly pointed out that I have EE's instead of Ameraucanas,

 

So I'm posting the same image here hopefully someone here will enjoy and appreciate the little chicken as much as I do!  Isn't she cute???

I love EGGS!

You know, I posted on there my Ameraucana from a breeder, and they snapped at me really quick and didn't make me feel comfortable in the least! I like your cutie! she is an adorable ball of chipmunky fluff!
