    Easter Egger Pullet?

    I bought 4 EE pullets from a local hatchery. This one is making me a bit nervous, please tell me what you think. Are these red spots a "shouder patch"? Everything else looks pullet-y. Please give me your thoughts. They are 7 ½ weeks old. Thank you!

    Help please- growth or tumor on leg

    My hen, Prissy, has had this growth for several months. It is hard, not fleshy. It started about the size of a dime, now like a large grape. It bleeds occasionally, but profusely. (lots of blood in the coop in the morning, and matted in her feathers, etc.) She does not limp, she was laying...

    California Blue

    This is a California Blue from Dunlap Hatchery. (½ barred rock, ½ white leghorn) It is exactly 16 weeks old. Do these saddle feathers absolutely, 100% mean it is a cockerel? it is the only one I have, so no others to compare it to.

    Same pullet?

    Egg one and two from the same chicken (I think), then egg three is tiny! Can/will a pullet all of the sudden lay a very small egg? Or is this a new one laying? I got these eggs Wed, Fri and today (sat)

    Pecked eye? Please advise.

    This chicken has been keeping her eye closed, so I checked her out…..no blood, but apparently "weeping" or something, her beard feathers are wet. It appears that her inner eyelid is torn. I washed it out with saline, and she seems to be acting better…it is open more often. What else should I...

    Who's egg is this?

    The dark brown is from my Blue Copper Marans. This lighter, pinkish one showed up yesterday with no evidence of who laid it. It has a matte finish, and is darker brown when wet. (Kinda like a bloom coating?) I have an OE (assuming its not hers) and a BlackCM with bright red comb/wattle. I...

    My first two eggs!

    I have one blue and one black copper marans. They are 18 weeks old today. The egg on the left was layed yesterday, the one on the right, today. Do you think they are from the same chicken, or do you think they are both laying? The second egg is a different color, and slightly larger, but I...

    Roo? Pullet? What do you think?

    This is my Olive Egger. It is from a Blue Marans over an EE. It is exactly 4 weeks and 5 days old. I have no other OEs to compare it to, my other birds the same age are a Blue CM and a BCM, and their combs and wattles are completely different. Edited to include: I am a complete newbie. (so...

    Hello from Idaho!

    I've wanted some chickens for a while because I love fresh, delicious eggs! My husband just sort of ignored me, lol. Then we started talking about moving toward a more "paleo" diet. I said we'd need to find some nice farm fresh eggs. Then he said "we could get a couple chickens!"... I'm...
