    As it turned out, it was dead. It had been dead for a while. We think it died during lock down.

    Day 22

    Hello all! We incubated 6 eggs and three of them were duds at day 10, but we waited till day 14 to make sure before throwing them out. Of the remaining three, one was added in a week late (don't ask) so it's still developing nicely, one has hatched, and the last one..... well that's my...

    Rescued something... What is it?!

    Hello, We found this little one strolling along the fence of our chicken coop and trying to graze with hens. It's got a bunch of bald spots and grit on it, no damage or bugs that I can see. We think its a Shamo, and we think it's female. Can anyone confirm? If it is a shamo, can anyone...

    Funny outcome to this. The last three pics were, obviously roosters. The top pic that everyone said was a pullet? Well, here's a picture of him now 😅

    @sealer39 Thanks for the comparison pics! They look SO much like ours do. We just put in a new fence for them.. they hopped right out of the short fence we had around their coop.

    Thanks that would be great! Should we wait until maturity to see which one(s) have a good temperament before selling/culling? We have a total of 10 chickens (with what looks like at least 3 roosters) should we only keep 1?

    We are thinking maybe Welsummer or Brown Leghorns? Don't look like most of the other "EEs" we've gotten. The first one is much more classic "EE" look to us.

    Hello, We bought these at TSC, labeled as Americanas, but we are guessing Easter Eggers. We got them as straight runs, and are trying to figure out if they are ALL roosters. There's 4. The first one is the only one with a pea comb:
