    Mystery Pullet

    The chicken equivalent of a fill-in-the-blank doodle. She's tall compared to the other pullets of the same age, and one of the more reserved.

    Mystery Pullet

    Definitely no crest. I'll get a better photo of her comb tomorrow.

    Mystery Pullet

    The coloring is similar, but she doesn't have enough toes to be a Dorking.

    Mystery Pullet

    I'd appreciate your help. I over-chickened this spring, and I lost my breed list. I've identified everyone except this girl. She is roughly 12 weeks old and was purchased at North 40 in Great Falls, MT. I know Hoover Hatchery is one of their suppliers. Thoughts?

    Mystery Chick Mistake :)

    Thank you. I wish he could stay, but I can't keep him in my neighborhood. Fortunately, I've found a farm that will take him.

    I'll have to go back and look. I have a bunch of photos still on my phone.

    Official BYC Poll: How Do You Keep Your Coop Smelling Fresh?

    In addition to ventilation, keeping things dry, cleaning, etc... I also scatter dried organic rose petals in the coop from time to time. They spend most of their time ranging, so that helps.

    Mystery Chick Mistake :)

    Thank you for the information. So, EE are the "doodles" of the chicken world 😉? Since she is an egg-laying pet, being a mix isn't a negative for me. I'll be interested to see what color eggs she produces.

    Mystery Chick Mistake :)

    This one. She is much larger now, the chicks are from McMurray Hatchery. She has muffs and a beard. I'm still a little confused about the difference between Easter Eggers and Ameraurcanas, but McMurray calls them Ameraucanas. Her name is Endora.

    I hope not. They are handsome, but I can't have roos in my neighborhood.

    Mystery Chick Mistake :)

    I'm feeling a little silly. The chick I thought was my mystery chick has been identified as one of two Ameraurcanas. They have very different coloring, but both have muffs and beards. The pictures below (and the photo from McMurray Hatchery) are of the mystery chick which I believe is a Dorking...

    Chicken who has humped neck. Please help!

    It looks like Eggcessive has passed along some good information. I'm sorry that the news doesn't look good.

    Chicken who has humped neck. Please help!

    Likely fowl paralysis caused by Marek's disease. (Disclaimer: I can't make a diagnosis without exam and testing) Unfortunately, I don't know of any treatment options. Is the rest of the flock vaccinated?

    Mystery Chick :)

    These are photos of the mystery chick I received on May 14 from McMurray Hatchery. It has me stumped. I've included a couple of photos from the first week, and some less informative photos from yesterday - it is a busy chick. No feathering on legs. Legs are a chocolate brown. Coloring is a...
