Oh I have no idea. I bought her at a Big R and they told me she was a Speckled Sussex.

She is an Easter Egger. She has been squatting for over two weeks now and still no eggs. Unless they are the same brown as everyone else and we just haven't caught her in the act yet.

Technically it was 2/4 in the first batch. One chick died and I replaced it with the other two non-reds. Alas, that's what I get for buying them out of the back of a pickup truck in a bar parking lot. ;) I'm bummed because I want my government allowed number of hens, and didn't really want to...

That's what I figured. I expect the hens to get a comb that big (like the one on the left), but only when they start laying, not at ten weeks. Stupid straight run chickens, not being the sex that I want.

How do these chickens look now? The one we thought was a cockrel definitely is; but now out of the blue it looks like another of my production reds is a cockrel as well! The one on the right is the one that we suspected was a cockrel early on. The one on the left I just noticed about a week...

Here are my RIR (probably productions) showing the one that we think is a rooster. They are 2 and 3 weeks here. Then 3 and 4 weeks.

Will knowing now significantly change what you do in the end? Patience.

I bought what I was told were RIR's and they all look exactly like what has been posted so far (even the ones next to the Wyandotte chicks). I'll have to look up the difference between RIR and production Reds.
