Sorry ahead of time if its kind of a long story... I'm always about the details and can go on and on sometimes.. I attached a picture of Smokey and her baby for payment!
One of my girls, Smokey went broody, and I gave her 9 eggs to sit on. 2 were not fertilized, and 2 ended up being quitters...
I know easter eggers father out in a variety of different ways, so I'm starting a thread where we can post images as our easter egger rooster grow into then selves, and for others who already have some grown that want to share :love
I have this funky all over the place colored Easter Egger roo...
Hey everyone, I wasn't sure if i should post here, or in the emergency section... but they seem to be doing alright since I set them up.. I just picked up 3 Ayam Cemani from a girl. Said she thinks they're 6 weeks. My husband and I both think they look kinda small.. I don't think they were taken...
Just picked up this beautiful boy. Was told the dad is a while Silkie that free ranges there... I instantly thought light brahma when I first saw him.. but I think there's a mix of something else in him? Wyandotte maybe? I only think that because of how full that tail is... When I asked the...
My flock consists of all hens:
1 Barred Rock
1 Buff Orpington
1 Light Brahma
5 Easter Eggers
If I added a Rhode Island Red Rooster in to my flock... I'd like to see some pics of what you ended up with breeding any of the mixes? What color eggs would I possible expect?
Talk to me about buying chicks from there.
I'm in Florida, when are they available?
What breeds do they generally have?
Do you recommend?
Average cost for them?
Looking to add just maybe just 6 more, less is fine..
Any feedback at all will help!
3 of my 5 easter eggers are laying as of now, first one for a new layer today!
What are the odds, they all are the same sage green color! Is this the most common color to find from an easter egger? I was hoping for a little color assortment...
This pic shows one from all 3. One of them was even...
Now I've read plenty of discussions mentioning chickens pecking wounds, so keep wounded chickens away from other chickens..
Well, I took a tumble last weekend and scraped my knee up real good.
That didn't slow me down, I kept my knee wrapped up nice and kept working to get their new coop up as...
That June waiting post was fun, even tho i caught it right at the end before mine laid..
I have some babies I picked up Sept. 22 at just about 2 weeks old..
So, now let's see those babies from September that we're waiting on!
Here are:
Smokey
Alfredo
Nugget
And Parmesan
What is the most important item you make sure you have on hand at all times and what is it used for?
Other than the most obvious food/treats/water/bedding.
Got her as an Easter Egger from a girl locally. Didn't ask if she got from a hatchery or not..
After posting her picture in here, a couple people said she might be pure Ameraucana. What do you all think? Baby and pullet pics up until 12/5 when she was 12 weeks old.. I'll have to try and get an...
I am so excited to see how this plays out!:wee
I got on Facebook for free her daughter's retired Playhouse to turn into a chicken coop for my 8 chickens. It is about LxWxH : 6x4x5. Plan to bring it up a little taller on a few cinder blocks with a plywood floor. I have read about the ventilation...
So, one of my laying hens was in the nest box on Saturday... I was bringing something into the run, and accidentally banged it on one of the bars as I entered.. This scared her out of the nest and she has not returned to the nest,I also have not seen any eggs laying around my yard any where...
I have an olive egger and she laid her first egg for me yesterday!🥰
Only it is a light sage green color almost identical in color to my easter egger's egg.
What are the odds the brown pigment is just delayed and I still have a chance at a nice olive color? Or does it look like I will have 2...
