Can anyone opine as to this lady's comb? I'm hoping it's just dry because she and her Black Star sister are in their first adult molt at 8-9 months. Early age for a molt it seems, but they started laying quite early too. Thanks in advance!

I have four new layers. Should I be concerned with the mottled Eggshell, and if so, what's the problem? Thank you!

Hi all, I'm in Rehoboth MA, recently hopped the border from Cranston. Hoping to find someone interested in these gorgeous blue amerucana cockerels, 16 weeks old. I can't keep all the cockerels I ended up with and would like to see these guys go to a nice home as they are handsome and nice guys.

Hi All, new flock keeper from Rehoboth MA. Looking to re-home these two gorgeous cockerels as I can't keep all my roos! Blue amerucana, 4 months.

Thanks Lacy! They are actually named Biscuit and Gra(y)vy. They are such nice gents and im trying to avoid Craigslist if I can.

I have two gorgeous blue amerucana cockerels in need of rehoming as my small flock ended up with three! Non aggressive and nice birds. Located in South coast Massachusetts

Just an update for those who guessed! Both of these cuties are now crowing cockerels.

Thanks. Yes, they're on non medicated grower crumbles and free range. They're otherwise all eating, drinking and active.

Can anybody opine on this poop, normal shedding or bloody and to be concerned about? 12 week chicks. Were on medicated feed until about 8 weeks. Thank you in advance!

I posted a few weeks ago with my EE and a swollen eye which receded and recently reappeared along with swollen eyes on two other Ameraucanas. I have heard one sneeze in like three days, have been watching closely for pus and eye bubbles, rattling or stinky breath, nasal discharge, and have come...

Hi all, I noticed one of my EE s eyes is swollen. She is otherwise eating/foraging per usual. Not scratching at it that I've seen, or head shaking/sneezing. No apparent discharge. All other chicks appear normal. Hopeful it's just an errant peck? Thanks in advance normal eye:

Thanks all. Definitely keeping both for now and will update in a few weeks!

I have two supposedly true blue Ameraucanas, my guess/hope is one roo, one pullet (chick 2?). They're approx 8.5 weeks and both pink three row pea combs but one is redder and taller than the other. Chick 2 also just got a few red shoulder feathers?? Would appreciate any guesses/tips! Chick 1...

Here's the usual suspects with an eight and a half week update. Any further thoughts on gender? I'm pretty sure pic 2 is a roo, as well as pic 3 Hoping pics 1, 5 (who is on right in pic 4) are pullets. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5 ?

Thank you all! Love the site. Helped us with the coop plans originally and it turned out great, in my opinion!

Thanks for the input! Your guesses are similar to mine. The two lavender Ameraucanas are very similar looking. I hope they're not both roos. As for 'lean' do you think they're too skinny?

Fixed photos! Thanks in advance.

Hi all! I've been looking and using this site for weeks and decided finally to join in on the fun. New to chick raising and just got 8 chicks from an NPIP farm. 2 EE, 2BLRW, 2 Ameraucana, and 2 Black Stars. Hoping for a good layer flock!

Hi! New chicken lady and to the site. Such great info! Looking for opinions on gender for my 6 chooks, 2 EE, 2 ameraucana, 2 BLRWs. Any thoughts would be appreciated as I'm excited to learn the tricks and tips. Thanks! In order of photo: 1. Biscuit, 2. Gravy, 3. Nugget, 4. Mole, 5. General Tso...
