I thought she was a welsummer but she just started laying and they are olive colored.
{Super happy about the eggs! And that she did it in her nesting box. She's the first of my flock to lay... so it's like Christmas has come early over here!}
Thanks :)
I think I have some roos in my little flock. They are all around 13 weeks old. I'm hearing lots of noise each morning and no eggs yet, so I think they're practicing their rooster skills.
And this black frizzle is pretty fearless... no fear of our pug what so ever... jumps right out of the run...
I bought 6 baby chicks about a month ago. It turned out three were roosters. I re-homed the boys and now the hens won't come out of their coop into their run. The boys always led the way. Do I/should I do anything? Just let them take their time readjusting? Just curious. Their coop is roomy, so...
Hi again! Thank you for your help yesterday determining I do indeed have two roos.. Now I'm just a little nervous if I have any more.
I believe they are all around 7-8 weeks old.

Hello. I am a new chicken owner. I live in sunny San Diego with my husband and two young children. I am a first grade teacher and we are pretty thrilled about our new hobby. And I have to show off my coop:
SLW on left and I believe a black maran on the right.
SLW... I think a roo :(
Maran... please tell me I can still call her Gretchen... I love her!

Thank you for your help!
