    EE? sold to me as Ameraucanas. Poulettes or roosters?

    If they are production Reds then you have females because the males come out a different color.

    EE? sold to me as Ameraucanas. Poulettes or roosters?

    Honestly, they look like a mix of Production Red or Sex-links. They don't look very EE at all. They are missing the leg color, some muffs and beards and just don't have any EE or Americauna coloring in their feathers. Where did you get these? Since they are in excess of 15 weeks, then you most...

    Is it bad to keep them housed inside during winter?

    No I don't believe it will maker her "weaker" towards weather changes in the future, just in the present.

    Is it bad to keep them housed inside during winter?

    My question is; Will homing chicks inside make them weaker to weather changes in the future and am I nuts for thinking that it is plausible to have them inside as they grow over the next few months? Yes, in short, keeping a warming light on or keeping them inside will cause them not to gain...

    is this black star breed ?

    My very first layer was a black sex link, sadly she disappeared a few weeks ago, and she started laying at 21 weeks. I have heard some start as soon as 18 weeks. She laid a nice medium brown egg and eventually they get to be large size and a nice brown.

    is this black star breed ?

    Black Star or Black Sex Link. Some come out really pretty and some come out kinda speckled. Good layers and mine have been really nice birds, gentle.

    Post your FIRST EGG pics!

    I would say it takes them atleast close or after the 1 year mark, they are hens then, to lay consistently. You have a heritage breed and may see sooner results with your RIR's, especially if they are production reds. They will come into laying bigger eggs. Mine took about the 1 year mark to hit...

    Hatching eggs on Ebay

    Thank you! Like I said, if I had any hatching eggs right now I'd send them your way! I really like getting hatching eggs from Facebook pages. For example: I get cross breed Appenzeller eggs from The Appenzeller Spitzhauben Club of America's Facebook page often. It works!

    Hatching eggs on Ebay

    On BYC, I'd go to the selling forums. You can find what you need but it is a little daunting since their is no way of filtering your state that I have found. I'd start a new thread in buying and title it "Looking for Hatching Eggs in "STATE".
