    What am I? Anyone want to guess?

    If I had things like this wandering around the barnyard, I'd spend my entire life hiding under the bed.

    Not sure what we have

    They look like teeny, tiny bald eagles.

    Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

    I'd say my bird's comb is definitely one row. Close up it looks like your pullet's - a pointy triangle rather than a raised oblong like your roo's. (That bodes well, right?) But yes, it is quite bright in real life. That's the part that has me baffled: everything but that color is very girly...

    Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

    Actually, his/her legs are almost white at this point (???) but that wasn't the question. I just want to know if it's a girl or a boy! Oh! I just realized you said "her legs" and "hen." Awesome.

    Man, oh man - I wish I knew how you guys take such awesome chicken photos! I've spent half the day chasing this little bugger around, and couldn't get a single outdoor shot. Anyhow, it was suggested that I repost the Mystery Chick at 8 weeks, so here s/he is (and please forgive the terrible...

    Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

    I love you, Sunflower. I do SO hope it's a hen. And yes: as I understand it, this chick is the result of a pure white EE roo over a wheaten or blue wheaten Ameracauna hen. S/he has gray rather than green legs, and does look pretty Ameracauna-ish in real life.

    Okey-dokey. This little cutie is 5 weeks old, and was hatched from a pretty blue egg sent bt BYC's own Kara. She herself suggested I post her/him in this thread, so here you go. Girl? Boy? I dunno. In real life s/he seems pretty girly-shaped, but that comb . . . ? Agh!

    Five Week EE - Girl or Boy?

    This little EE - here with his/her Orpington foster mom - is five weeks old today. I'd been thinking "Girl," but now that comb has me wondering . . . help!

    Hatching eggs! Several breeds available!

    Hatching day! Out of the 5 eggs left on Day 21 (two rolled out of the nest and cracked last week) we've had two hatch so far. One is is a very pale butter color - fluffy and trying to walk already! - and the other looks like it will be buffy. My broody is beside herself with joy, and looks...

    Hatching eggs! Several breeds available!

    They're here! Your packaging is absolutely great, I must say. Every egg is perfect. And thanks so much for the extras - I opened one to check for fertility, and it was very clearly fertile (as well as very tasty) which is quite a comfort, with three long weeks to wait, and a cranky brooidie...

    Broody Hen vs artificial incubation

    No, you're not alone. And I couldn't agree more. I bet you'll be able to sell you hen-raised birds, and I bet people will be converted the minute they see the difference.

    Hello. :) Two quick questions: 1) What is a "Super Blue"? Is it a kind of EE? 2.) Could I order 6 of one breed and 6 of another (say, SBs and Olive Eggers)? Many thanks! Elizabeth

    Broody Hen vs artificial incubation

    Oh, gosh. I'm so glad I found this thread. (You can always count on BYC.) I have an Orpington hen that's been broody since . . . June, I guess, and I'm thinking seriously of putting some eggs under her. (There are such cool things in the HATCHING EGGS FOR SALE section that I've had to...

    Maine

    Hello, fellow Mainers. I'm looking to buy a couple of LF pullets or young laying hens, of some cold-hardy breed. (I'm pretty open minded.) Is anybody around here selling at this time of year? I'd rather not risk shipping if at all possible.
