I have an Easter Egger that lays mint green eggs and I have a blue wheaten Ameraucana and I was wondering what color eggs the offspring of these two would lay? Does anyone know?

I picked up 6 new fluff balls this weekend. :) 3 ameraucanas and 3 silkies. I am also getting 3 English orps Wednesday. It has been two years since we had babies. I am having so much fun with them.

Can anyone tell me what kind of chicken is in the picuture on the Muddy Coop and Run article on the home page of BYC now? It looks like a Wyandotte, but it is white and light red. I thought it was really pretty and just wondered if it was a specific color or project. It is the chicken with...

We lost one of our original 3 girls last night. Honeybun who was a red sex-link hen was laying out in the run this morning when my husband let the dogs out. She had seemed a little off for a couple of weeks now, but she was still running around eating and laying eggs. I thought that she might...

HELP! I have hatching eggs and I have no idea what I am going to do. I have never hatched before so I bought these eggs with the plan to have someone else incubate for me. The agreement was one dollar per egg that hatches, which sounded great to me. The eggs actually arrived today, three days...

We have an injured hen. It looks like she fell behind a feed barrell and got stuck. I dont have any idea how she managed to wedge herself back there. My mistake was thinking that the space was too small for it to be an issue. The problem seems to be her leg. She is eating and drinking fine...

My husband was taking one of our dogs out to go to the bathroom tonight and there were deer in the yard that he did not see and our little dog took off after them. I am so worried about him. We have called and called and searched and searched. I am so worried rhat something will happen to him...

I just need to vent a little. This has been such a horrible week! My job changed a couple of months ago and essentially I have been given the jobs that three people were doing and am expected to accomplish everything and take on additional "development opportunities" and projects. I am so...

I just needed to rant a bit... I have a 13 year old daughter who is ADHD. She was medicated when she was in the first grade and we dealt with her issues fairly well until last year. Well, last year was a NIGHTMARE in school. She was in the AIG (academically gifted) program and things just...

I started the weekend saying I was not going to watch any of the 9/11 shows on tv. I wanted to avoid that emotion today and what did I do? I did good all day and just now sat and watched the kids of 9/11 interview with Diane Sawyer and sat here and bawled my eyes out. *sigh* I will never...

My husband let the dogs out this morning and checked on my chickens and found a stupid possum in our big girls run! Thankfully our three ladies were up on their roost and the possum was on the ground by their little house that they never actually use. The possum had a very bad morning. I am...

We are trying to purchase a new home. We currently live in a single-wide mobile home that we purchased the year after we got married. I say "we" but I actually mean that my husband went to a dealership and bought the house and called me at work and said "I bought a house today" He did this...

These three little bantams belong to a friend. She has no idea what kind they are and she was wondering if anyone could help identify them. Sorry the pics aren't great. They are currently part of a vacation bible school display so they are in a dog kennel in the "market" so since they are...

Something is eating our corn right off the stalk. Does anyone have any idea what could be doing this to the corn? We have never seen this before. We couldn't find any tracks at all and most of the ears that are eaten are the lower ears. Sorry for the crappy pics but I loaned my good...

Are these two girls for sure? I have heard two different things about the pattern to their feathers, some people say it definately means girl but then some say that isn't true. Cleopatra Jellybean Just for fun Coco - We know he is a boy, his coloring is totally dark but he is just the...

Our BLRW are 6 weeks old, I am hoping that one of them is a pullet. I am almost certain that the other is a roo. Wasabi - Pretty sure this is a roo. Sasafrass - Hoping this is a pullet

I kept thinking that all three of our SLW were boys, but we have one that we called Batman because I was sure it was a boy. I don't know why, but it just seemed like a boy to me and it looked like it had a mask on... so Batman. I am not so sure now that Batman is actually a boy. What do you...

My bathroom seems so quiet today. I moved our 8 chicks out to the coop yesterday. It is kinda sad, I was so used to talking to them throughout the evening and I went in several times per night and spent at least 10-15 minutes sitting with them talking to them and holding them. I can still watch...

My Dark Brahmas are 4 weeks old now. Is it still too early to tell if they are boys or girls? The darkest one, Coco Is it a roo because it is so much darker than the other two? Cleopatra... or Cleopatrick? This one is a bit smaller than the other two. It is the most adventurous...
