That is a cinnamon queen. We have 2 of those. We also have 2 barred rock both with more pronounced combs, one is more pink and the other pretty pale. It’s hard to know what’s typical from breed to breed
Hello! I posted yesterday, but I’m posting again with better pictures today. We have 3 EEs. Fudge is the dark brown, I’m pretty sure she is a pullet. Freya is the golden one, unsure but leaning pullet. Rocky is the grey, really suspicious she’s a boy. Thanks for any input. They are 8 weeks old.
Do you think if they are males they should have darker and more pronounced comb and waddle by this point(8 wks)? None of my 3 EEs have darker or pronounced comb/waddle. They are pale and tiny
Yes the grey one is the one I’m most suspicious! Sometimes when she’s walking around the tail feathers “splay out” and seem to stand taller. She looks much different from the others, I have 2 other EEs
I hope it’s just the pattern! I love my girls and I don’t want to have to rehome any :( it’s my first time having chickens. I’m glad you and others said they are pullets
We have 7 chickens and these 2 are Easter eggers that I’m worried are roosters. We aren’t allowed to have roosters unfortunately. They are 8 weeks old, how can I tell?
I have the producer pride coop with attached covered run for my 7 chickens. It is predator proofed and will be a great spot to keep them extra safe. I was thinking about getting one of the metal chicken runs from Amazon and put the girls in there each morning and then put them back in their...
Thanks so much! They do get pretty roudy when we bring them back inside at night for a bit… they just love being out. I’m sure I’ll be able to tell the difference.
Thanks so much for the tips! My husband is an electrician and he isn’t crazy about me running an extension cord out to the coop 😆 especially with rain and heavy dew like you mentioned. We have heavy dew almost every morning with how humid it has been. My girls are used to it being pretty dark…...
Thanks for the tips! That sounds like a great plan. On the first step, when I just unplug the plate, if they are cold they should be loud about it right??
