    EE roo or pullet?

    I will try to get pics of the other girls as I heard them to the coop for bedtime tonight. 2 of them are a beautiful ashy gray color and the other one looks like the one originally pictured. Need to help them get to the coop at dusk bc we have a skunk that keeps getting in our yard. Hubby and...

    EE roo or pullet?

    Thank you all for your replies and expertise! Interestingly enough, within 5 mins of posting this question, I found a beautiful pastel green colored egg right next to the chicken in question! Haha! Figures! :). Not on,y that, but found another gorgeous green egg in a nesting box a short time...

    EE roo or pullet?

    I adopted 4 EE's a few days ago and the person I bought them from listed them as female ameraucanas. However, I think they are all EE's and this one I can't tell if it's a boy or a girl. I was unfamiliar with pea combs and didn't notice this one was different until I got home. Is it just a...

    EE roo or pullet?

    I adopted 4 EE's a few days ago. I was told they were all female, but not knowing much about EE's or pea combs (my other chickens are all heavy breeds), I didn't second guess the gender if them until I got home with them. I do not know how old they are... They appear young though and I'm...

    Does indoor brooding time vary based on breed?

    Thank you so much for replying! I only plan to buy 2 ducklings, so in light of your wisdom and experience, I'm opting to choose a later deliver date for mid Feb vs ASAP, so they can be outside at the 6w mark without being too cold. I do have 2 Pekins that are 1 yr old (adopted last week)...

    Does indoor brooding time vary based on breed?

    I adopted 2 Pekin ducks last Saturday from a local farmer. We love them so much, we want to get two Pekin ducklings soon as well. I'm new to ducks...learning fast, but new nonetheless. So my question is, how long will I need to keep my Pekin duckling inside with a heat lamp before they can...

    BYC in Lawton Ok

    I am between Lawton and Cache in a neighborhood by The Goodyear plant. I called Cache city hall this morning, and while my physical address is in Cache, their jurisdiction stops at crater creek rd, so they referred me to Lawton. I called Lawton, and they said since my addy is in Cache, I need...

    BYC in Lawton Ok

    Late in replying here, but wanted to say hello. I'm not sure about Lawton. I live in between Lawton and Cache (near Goodyear) and have 8 chickens. We are wanting to get 2 pygmy does soon but no clue where to find them other than Craigslist. You have any ideas?

    Can you identify my breeds?

    Oh wow! Thanks for those pics! The JG and BA are nearly as identical fully grown as they are as chicks. No wonder it's so hard to narrow it down. Glad I checked those feet... a very good tip I hadn't read yet, thank you. I love th BO pic! Such pretty birds. Hope she turns out to be...

    Can you identify my breeds?

    I'm sorry for the cunfusion. Of the 3 in question, 2 have the gold splashing on their chests. The 3rd one (labled #6 in first set of pics) has no splashing at all. It is indeed an accurate photo of her. I got confused when I went to take a few more pics. :) So I'm assuming that with yellow...
