Maybe a Cuckoo Maran Cockerel. It looks at least a month old. If you can get an age from the owner then that might help. As it gets older there will be more feather color to help with gender and ID. My surprise chick is another Salmon Favorelle (I ordered 2 pullets). Also, a cockerel I...

Thank. It's what I was thinking

The other two have a lot more buff feathering. They are still young. I know it's early. It's just the largest one is mostly black feathers that are coming in. I hope these pics are better. I just took them today.

My apologies. I will take more pics today. Also, more feathers are out. But thanks for your input. I have not had this breed before.

So Sorry for you. I lost most of my first flock to a dog attack a long time ago. It's so hard to deal with. Good luck with tonight. I hope you catch the creature. I was thinking the EE was a cockerel as well. I had one that color a long time ago. I couldn't pin why I though it could be a...

Hello, It has been a long wait here in Southern California. But we are finally free from the Newcastle quarantine. I had a large order of chicks that were mailed off the very next day. I am lucky that I had that order in the works because it is hard to get chicks right now especially this...

Wow. 9 weeks old. you will at least know very soon :) I think the first two are pullets. The 3rd one I am not so sure. But I would lean towards pullet. I had one roo who developed very late compared to his brothers. Either way, you have some very pretty birds.

I really like this thread. I love some of the crosses. I do have a couple as well. Here is one of mine... This pretty girl is Iris and she is from a Buff Orpington hen named buttercup. and a Americana Roo. She lays cream colored eggs. She was raised by the Royal palm turkey. I love her heart...

Hi :) It has been a long time and I was thinking about this thread. I hope everyone is doing well. And yes I am on a new egg wait .. and have a long wait. I have 2 chicks now and plan on a few more. My flock is down to 8 with a few birds about 4 years old. Though they are doing well I felt it...

I haven't had a welsemmer yet but they are definitely on my list. I do have a Buff orpingtons and they never went broody. Maybe I was just lucky. My Cuckoo Miran did go broody. She was a good mom but she didn't like any of the roos I had at that time so I got no crosses with her. She raised...

I got a first egg from my Raven.... My EE mix When my EE cross with an Buff orp came up with a cream egg I did not have too much hope for Raven here. But she gave us a pretty blue egg yesterday. I believe she is an EE/ Andalusian cross .... So Eggcited....

Oh good lord.... Chicken math ;) You start out wanting just 4 and end up with a dozen. Well not all chicks survive so you have to get extras. Then we are all good care takers and they all live... Then you fine others breeds... it's a dangerous spiral to 20 chickens... I love my girls. And there...

Thanks Audiomilk... These are my boys... I thought I had more pics of them. I can try to get a few more later.... Black Andalusian Splash The one on the left is the EE cross And this is my RIR cross. You can not see the red in him very well in this pic... Just a touch at the...

Last year I had two roos and some broodie hens. One of my Roos was BO and one was EE. I thought that since I have a natural incubator so why not?... This was just for fun... I did not think that I would get more then a couple of chicks so I gave each bird a lot of eggs. The chicken hen got 5 and...

Oh that is an amazing green! Love that color. I have one girl that has not started laying yet that I am hoping for a wonderful color as that. I did get a first egg from one of my mix breed pullets. My little Iris has started to lay. Half BO / EE... I was hoping for an Olive-egger but they...

How wonderful threescompany. Congrats! & merry Christmas everyone. I found a recipe for homemade eggnog ;) I think I will try it later...

Happy Belated Winter Solstice. Which was yesterday... Sorry but I had family stuff... From now on there should be a little more light each day. All those lazy girls will get a hint and should start laying soon... I hope my girls take the hint ;) I have been getting maybe 1 or 2 eggs a day... Oh...

CCsChickens... I sell off my eggs when I have enough. I take them to work, friends of a friend.... once I took some to a yard sale. I have also given a lot to friends in need. But most of the time I take excess eggs to work... Again, some buy some people I help out if I can... A little extra egg...

Wow is right... that looks really big. Congrats on your 3 egg day. My girls are still mostly on vacation which I am very okay with. We had a 0 egg day but mostly 1 egg days. But Winter Solstice is this Sunday, which means egg production should pic up just after that...

Here in sunny California we finally got rain. Really loved it... Did any of you hear? We actually got a small tornado in Las Angelas. Lucky it was a very small one but it was a real one. Did a little damage and excited a lot of people. Also lucky that I am over an hour away from there... We are...
