    It depends on what type of chicken you have. A couple of those lol like olive eggers. They all look green. The rest are probably from an Easter egger.

    No. Once a chicken lays a certain color, they will always lay that color. The egg shown is a shell less egg. It happens occasionally with new layers. The blue is put the shell just before laying.

    How early do you clip chick wings?

    Only ever clip one side. Same side every time. On every chicken. This makes them fly crooked so they can’t get as high and over what they are aiming for.

    How early do you clip chick wings?

    Do not clip until their adult feathers are in. While they are growing, they have blood on them. This would be the equivalent to clipping your dogs nails too short and cutting the quik.
