I have a month old Millie Fleur d'Uccle, I was hoping it would be a Hen since I have a Roo, but its starting to look like a roo to me. The comb is getting bigger and under its neck where the Wattles will be is getting red. Case your wondering whats up with its feet feathers I trimed them to...

Ok good to know I've been mislabeling wrong from the start First Araucanas then Ameraucana (which I had been spelling it Americana) so least I know for sure. No big deal since I bought 5 adult Hens for 25 and a free Roo. We had EE when I was a kid and we called them easter eggers, but didn't...

I thought Ameraucanas where a pure breed and EE are any mix that has the blue, green egg gene? If they do turn out to be those 2 colors I'll prob keep some and get rid of a few I have now, I like the blues and blacks. Any clue what color the hen in the first pic beside the Roo is? I'd loved...

From what I looked up the grey chicks will turn out to be Blue & the Black Chicks will be Black? If its true all the chicks that I hatch out of the Ameraucanas are these two colors, not sure how since non of my Chickens are Black or Bule and none of the Chickens in the flock I got them from had...

Ahh Ok, yeah I'm trying for the same thing. Some advice on the flowers, plant some Buckwheat and sunflowers their pretty and will make good chicken feed! My wheat is growing now and I'm hoping it will produce food for my chickens in spring. I put 40lbs of seed down so I'd asume I'd get a...

Nice Pics! I love the Cochins, I had an idea to make my own breed and in my head they looked exactly like the Cochins, so once I saw them I decided I have to get some! I have some Cochin eggs in the incubator now, Columbian, Sliver Lace, mille fleur and Molted colors so I can't wait! Later I...

Some of my younger chickens are laying now, one of my Americanas lays Brown eggs and the rest blue. I found 2 brown eggs 2 days ago, at first I thought maybe she laid double, but that night I found another. It had black feathers so I think its my Black SLs laying the eggs. Nothing yesterday then...

Thanks for the welcome everyone! @rheston what do you mean by prohibitive? Local ordnance wont let you or did you mean because of the cost? We have all those and coyotes thanks to the parks, they claim they cut deer numbers down, but they eat everything and spread like wild fire. I think...

With Quail eggs you'll prob have to use an incubator, a lot of Quail wont sit on eggs in captivity. I'd get a incubator and hatch them yourself or if you have a broody Bannie Hen give them to her to raise. What I do with mind is fill a dish with vermiculite and stick the ponity end down in the...
