    Do EE chicks have beards?

    We just hatched our first backyard flock and we have no clue which rooster was with which hen. But this one chick looks like it has a beard, so EE chicks have beards from the start? We have 3 roosters and 1 is a EE so we knew there was a chance but he’s not a mounty so we weren’t sure how many...

    Double yolk soft shell

    My 5 month old ginger broiler and big red broilers are laying soft shelled eggs. But today I got a weird double yolk soft shell from one and I’m wondering if it’s the breed or possible infection. They are new to laying but it’s been going on for 2 weeks now. Finally pinned it down to who. The...

    What breed is this chocolate brown Roo?

    I didn’t even think of that and a quick look in google and Murray’s website confirms I think you are right! Thank you!

    What breed is this chocolate brown Roo?

    Not sure on what breed this Roo is. We got the bargain special from Murray mcmurray, we know all the other Roos breeds but not this one. My closest guess is a RIR but my other 2 RIR are much more traditional in the copper orange coloring, not like this brown one. Any ideas?

Now this last egg hasn’t hatched, it’s day 22, and last night she left the egg and roosted all night. This morning she’s back on the egg. Not sure my next...

    ive got 2 broody hens, a game hen and a dorking. Both have been good broods so far but we’re 1 Day from hatching and my 3rd half broody hen (buttercup chicken) I think killed one of the first hatchlings. And now both my broody hens are sitting in the same box. I removed the buttercup and put her...

    Thick yolk on fresh egg, no roosters

    I moved on and made them pancakes haHaha they are too impatient, I just hate to waste it all, figured I would cook it and then put it in the fridge. If it’s all good can use it later or toss.

    Thick yolk on fresh egg, no roosters

    I cracked my eggs as usual and 1 of the yolks was not as rounded on the top, and alittle wrinkly, almost like it was slightly deflated. I tried whisking with a folk and not sure if it was that wrinkled egg or not but 1 of them wouldn’t break up like my other egg yolks were. Pic is showing what...

    Olive egger?

    Amazon! It doesn’t hold a lot, but i empty it for my parents every few days and really helps me keep the eggs in order, not that I truly need to but some sort of mental thing for me loves that the actual oldest is leaving first
