    Sapphire Gem Egg or…?

    I have what was sold to me as a Sapphire Olive Egger but since she doesn’t have a crest I was thinking she’s a Sapphire Gem. I got her with another OE/Gem and 2 Cream Legbars. All 16 weeks today. My lighter OE/Gem is closest to lay with big red comb/wattles, squatting and roaming the nesting...

    Sapphire Gem Rooster or Hen?

    First ‘flock’ and I think I may have a male. It is 8-10weeks old and we think a Sapphire Gem. Thoughts?

    Sapphire Olive Egger or Sapphire Gem?

    Is this a Sapphire Gem or Sapphire Olive Egger? I was told it is one or the other. Perhaps I just have to wait a few months until it starts laying eggs.

    BBS Orpington x Sapphire Gem

    I’ve recently crossed my BBS Blue Orpington roo with my Sapphire Gem hen. I’m getting blue/silver/mauve chicks. If I wanted to create a new line of chicken, how could I weed out the mauve?

    My Sapphire Gem and Rhode Island Red Adventure

    Here's my 10 babies. They're about 7 weeks old now. 6 of them were sold as Sapphire Gem and 4 were sold as Rhode Island Reds. All 10 were supposed to be pullets, but we know how that goes. I have a sneaking suspicion one of my RIR may be a roo. Seems to be the last to grow feathers out and had...

    Sapphire Gem?

    This was supposed to be a sapphire gem but the front of her is throwing me off. I’ve never seen a chicken breed with that color pattern.

    Confirming this is Sapphire Gem chickie.

    ...imposter but once I dug in I figured her out (mystic onyx vs the midnight majesty marans I thought I got). So now— what I believeto be a sapphire gem chick is developing some reddish feathers which is… unexpected. They’re on either side of her chest. I don’t have a pic yet, but here’s a few...

    Sapphire Gem or Jersey Giant or something else?

    Recently adopted this chick thinking it was a sapphire gem pullet, but it's quite a bit larger than our buff orp. and silver laced of the same age, and has some colors I know can happen with a hybrid breed, but the size and colors are making me think we maybe instead got a mislabeled Jersey...

    Hello Everyone! My mom recently aquired 2 Sapphire Gem chicks from Hoovers hatchery/ Rural King. At 3.5 weeks old we have two chicks who look slightly different. Neither of these chicks have the dot on their head that I thought sapphire gems did if they were barred/ roos, being that they are...

    Roo. Sapphire Gem or...?

    Bought as a Sapphire Gem chick at feed store, but am questioning his breed with the lack of barring (or am I missing it?) & no head spot when it was a chick (circled in red). Now 10 weeks old. Would love breed opinions & to see your SG roos, please. Thanks!

    Sapphire Gems

    Can someone tell me why my sapphire gems look totally different? I’m talking about the wings not the color. They’re both the same age and from the same place.

    First egg!

    ..."A" scratched on it, which my niece pointed out to me, and funny enough, my name starts with the letter "A", almost like the egg was just for me. :lau We suspect it was our Sapphire gem that laid the egg, as she's been showing signs for 2 weeks. We are so eggcited to see all the other girls'...

    Has anyone had chicks out of a sapphire gem rooster to barred rock hen? Anyone who has more knowledge than I do know what colors I should expect? I’m expecting a decent egg production am I right in thinking that? I have an American game hen currently sitting on a clutch of her own eggs and also...

    Is this a Sapphire Gem?

    These two are 4 weeks old. I am posting several photos of two sapphire gems I purchased at the same time from Tractor Supply. The lighter color one vs the very dark one. The comb difference as well. Do you think the dark one could have been a different breed they didn’t have posted?

    Are my new Sapphire Gems male or female?

    Hello all :) it’s been a long time. Life just keeping me busy, you know how it is. Just got two Rhode Island Reds (Pullets) and two Sapphire Gems (straight runs but same bin as RIR). And thought I’d play hen or roo with the new Sapphire babies. Was trying to see if he could do a check but he...

Anyways these were sold to use as Sapphire Gems from a farm store called Gebos, small chain in this area. I learned they purchase them from Hoovers I learned this morning when I went in to try...
