EGGS !!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations!! Our girls layed their first eggs this past weeked - it was soooo exciting! We have 6 hens of different breeds (barnyard mix). 3 of them started laying on the same day. It's so much fun to check the nest boxes each day. The girl in this photo didn't lay any of these eggs...- shellgrl

Chipmunk Chick - What Breed Might She Be?
Just figured it out for sure...she's a Brown Leghorn. Welsummer coloring, but lighter and has white earlobes. She'll be our one white egg layer!- shellgrl

Chipmunk Chick - What Breed Might She Be?
I do believe that my chipmunk chick is a Welsummer! Now that she's 12 weeks, her beautiful feathers have come in...I read that Welsummers do have Dutch origins, so it all seems to fit. Can't wait to see what color her eggs are!- shellgrl

Comment by 'shellgrl' in article 'Winter-Coop-Temperatures'
Thank you for this very helpful info...our chicks are 6 wks old and haven't started living in their coop yet. I've already been worrying about how they'll survive the Maine winters, but sounds like they should be just fine if we make a few winterizations!- shellgrl

Chipmunk Chick - What Breed Might She Be?
Thanks for the replies...I believe she is large fowl and her legs are kind of a pinkish orange color. Here's another photo that shows moer of her back - can't really see her legs though. Maybe I can take a better one tonight. No matter what breed, I just think she's so pretty!- shellgrl

Chipmunk Chick - What Breed Might She Be?
Bought my first chicks this weekend and one is colored like a little chipmunk - she came from a "Barnyard Mix", but the guy selling her said she could be Dutch? Wondering if she might be an Easter Egger? Doesn't really matter, but if anyone has ideas I'd love to hear them!- shellgrl
