    Breed of our Rooster Draco Malfoy

    Hi All, I posted Draco when he was still a juvenile. Most said Egger mix. He came from Hoover’s and could have been part of a rare breed or colored egg layer mix. His colors and patterns have evolved since I last posted. We have since hatched our own eggs, so I’m more curious what breed he...

    Breed of our Handsome Roo?

    It should be one of these if from the colored egg layer assortment: Americana, Olive Egger, Prairie Bluebell Egger™, Sapphire Olive Egger™, Starlight Green Egger™, Midnight Majesty Marans™, French Black Copper Marans, or Cuckoo Marans. or one of these from the rare assortment: Partridge...

    Gender of our Polish

    I suspect this is a roo- which would be the third from our order of 15 pullets from Hoover’s. He/ she just looks so different from our adult silver laced Polish. Pointier head feathers. Although I keep hearing that messy head feathers indicate Polish Roos and most of our Polish hens have wild/...

    Breed of our Handsome Roo?

    We got an assortment of rare breeds and colored eggs layers from Hoover’s- I’m assuming he’s some sort of mixed colored egg layer breed, but curious if anyone knows?

    What breed? 7 months

    I would say Black Copper Marans, although I only see copper on the 2nd and 3rd pictures. My Black Australorp has clean feet and dark (almost black) eyes.

    First Eggs!

    Thanks for the link! The only two with bright red combs and wattles are one French Black Copper Maran and our Delaware. I was just thinking 17 weeks was way too early for either of those breeds. Do they all just mature at their own pace? @HappyClucker7 @Duckee

    First Eggs!

    Do you think all of these eggs could have come from the same chicken? I REALLY don’t think we missed an egg on 9/22, but it is possible. This is between 17-18 weeks for our flock, but the only chicken I expected to lay this early is our black Australorp. Our other breeds are Delware, Easter...

    I looked like 3 times and wasn’t sure of what I was seeing. I finally got a decent picture. Hopefully the light is decent enough for you to tell!

    Two Remaining Mystery Birds

    I’m posting a lot lately, but I finally got some better pictures and have hit roadblocks on my own research. These two are still stumping me... I got a Rare Choice Sexed Mix from Hoover Hatchery, but they don’t seem to “match” any of the breeds. 1) Cooper: Clean yellow feet, straight...

    Easter Eggers

    These girls came from Hoover Hatchery’s Rare Choice Mix, and based on their cheeks as chicks, and greenish legs, I think they are all Easter Eggers. I have better pictures of their combs if that helps too. Hoover’s lists: Sapphire Olive Egger, Prairie Bluebell Egger, Starlight Green Egger...

    Breed and Gender Help

    Hi, I would love some guidance/ opinions on 4 of my chicks. They are btwn 8-9 weeks and came from Hoover (via TS) Rare Choice sexed. Each week I suspect a different one from our 10 to be a rooster. 1,3,4- Are they all Black Copper Marans? Or could any be midnight majesty Marans? 2- I...

    Did you ever figure out what she is? Two of mine came from the same “pack” and looks similar
