I have a young EE who started laying early December 2014. She only lays about an egg a week. I have yet to find one that has a yolk and just recently they have gotten much smaller, a little larger than a marble. I have another pullet who started laying at the same time and her eggs are perfect...

Okay so today I heard a terrible racket in the coop and this little girl came running out. I thought, "finally, she laid another egg!" I checked the coop and nothing. She sounded clearly distressed. Could she be egg bound? I'm a new chicken owner so I am not sure of the signs or how to resolve...

I feel like I have searched the coop and run pretty thoroughly but I will keep searching. So i guess it's not normal for her to not have laid any other eggs?

Hey everybody! I need some help. I have two chickens that turned 6 months old on Dec. 2. One is a wyandotte and the other is an ameraucana (or easter egger). The wyandotte started laying the sweetest little eggs right at 6 months. A day or two later the ameraucana laid a tiny little egg with...

Thanks everyone! You all were right, he started crowing last week (9 weeks old!) and now he is trying to mate with the grown hen. It really happened fast! I found out that I can keep him if the neighbors don't object which I kind of want to do because he is sweet as pie. My question for...

I have two young chickens (about 9 weeks old) and one adult hen. All three have free range of the back yard all day. At night they...

I had some problems getting my chicken to pose for me (silly chicken!) but I did manage to get a few more photos. What do you all think - still think I have a rooster? Thanks for your opinions and expertise!

Here is another photo I have from around the same time. You can see the comb better. I'll get some more recent ones as soon as I can.

I'll try to take some this afternoon and post them. Do you think I have a true Ameraucana or is it an EE?

I'm really hoping y'all can help me out since I'm new to the world of chicken raising. I bought a chick that is supposed to be a female Ameraucana. I understand that I may actually have an EE rather than a true Ameraucana but I don't care much about that. Can someone tell me if this chicken...
