    Hen or Rooster- NOT AGAIN! Easter Egger- crossing fingers!

    I got two "pullets" from a woman who bought them as such. One GLW and one EE. The EE looks "questionable" to me... Any ideas? It's about 8-9 weeks.... Just when I thought my cockerel days were over! Hoping she is really a she!

    New hens not laying yet- when will they start?

    I do not have a proper quarantine area so I asked the woman I got them from them to keep them separated from her flock for 10 days before she brought them to me- no signs of illness etc.

    New hens not laying yet- when will they start?

    I got rid of most of my roosters :) They went to great homes with lots of hens in the country (I'm in the city). I swapped some roos with a home steader for 2 Buckeye Hens. They're big, friendly girls and are eating and seem to be settling in. Two things- There are two levels of roosting bars...

    So these two don't have large red combs like the ones I'm sure are roo's. They're about 9 weeks now. I would LOVE it if these two were hens. #1 This one has kind of an orange-ish comb, small wattles forming, and I know there is brown on the wings, but MAN if she were a she, I'd be...
