    3 month old Ameraucana pullets, do I have a roo in the group?

    Yep... He was a rooster. I kept him until he was 6 months old and doing "his thing" with the ladies. My local feed store owner bought him to keep his hens happy and to bring new bloodlines to his offspring. He used to be really tame... He would sit on my lap or on the back of the chair when I...

    Egg sizes

    Thanks again. I think I'll change to the regular laying pellets and just keep doing everything else nutrition wise. My grandkids love the little eggs so if they never get any bigger, I'll be fine with it. I just thought it was strange that the eggs were getting smaller instead of larger...

    That is crazy! A conjoined egg. I would blow out the yolk(s) and keep it ~ but I'm weird that way. LOL

    Egg sizes

    Thanks Aart. The majority of the girls where hatched last spring. The Blue is the youngest at around 5 months. I appreciate the suggestions and will try the alfalfa bale to see if that helps since our weather says more snow on an off until next week. They want to get out in the yard so bad...

    Egg sizes

    Thanks so much Spangled. Very good points to ponder. I have my girls on a 22% protein layer pellet for "all fowl" and they are free range too so in between the snow, they do get out on the grass. I also supplement with bags of greens from the store, plain yogurt and other kitchen scraps. I...

    Egg sizes

    My two EE started laying in November and their eggs were greenish color and medium in size. Now, they are small and barely fill the space in the egg carton. Is there anything I can do feed wise to increase the size or do I let nature take its course and see if they will get to medium size...

    Do you know the breed of these girls?

    I think in a couple of months she will look a lot better and maybe then we can figure out what she is. Thanks for the help.

    Do you know the breed of these girls?

    I just purchased these from our local feed store and they weren't sure what breed these two girls are. Does anyone have any ideas? The brown one has ear muffs and a beard, sort of like my two Easter Eggers, but I'm not sure. The grey girl's face reminds me of a vulture.... LOL.

    One of the girls is rumpless. Is that a trait in the Silver Leghorn too?

    Do you have any idea what breed they are?

    I have two of these ladies ~ one has a tail and the other is without feathers. I've checked and it wasn't that her tail feathers were pulled out. There coloring is identical. I like there personality and they are very good foragers but it would be nice to know what they are and what color...
