Hello! Long story short, can anyone confirm if it's possible for a Blue Ameraucana to be without a muff or beard?
I was under the impression that they always have a muff and beard and that the Meyer ameraucanas are true ameraucanas; Meyer's website even lists them as having beards and muffs...
I don’t know if my hens are Delaware or Sussex chickens . Been laying about a month. they are laying small eggs. As time goes on will the eggs get bigger? White egg is from the store. This is my Rooster.
I picked up 4 chicks from Rural King yesterday. This chick was in a bin labeled “Assorted Egg Layers-Pullets”. My daughter picked this one, and she’s wondering what kind it is so I figured I’d ask here.
(We also got a light Brahma, Sapphire Gem, and an Americana.)
The bin at Rural King.
Hello!
This spring I purchased what I thought were 7 olive eggers, 3 mystic maran, 3 brahma and 2 americuanas.
What I've ended up with are 2 black copper marans, 1 of which is a rooster, and 8 french black marans. However, the black copper maran hen is laying a sage colored egg and the french...
I incubated & hatched these 2 roosters this spring from eggs gifted me by a neighbor. The neighbor isnt sure what breeds they are or if theyre a BYM (Which is very probable) They are about 6 months old now.
I raise chickens for the eggs & just bc I enjoy them but I like to know, if I can find...
I have 24 chickens and i buy different breeds. I have from Japanese Silkies, Brahmas to Naked Neck Chickens etc. Recently I bought a rooster and I have no idea what breed he is, I just fell in love with him the moment I saw him. He’s still quite young, but he is already quite big, almost bigger...
My flock is mostly Ameraucanas and Rhode Islands (from what I can tell, which isn't much).
Just wanna know for fun and future reference.
Temperament: Snickerdoodles is very active and quirky, affectionate, loves pets and hugs...
Hi all,
My family and I bought Chooky from a local breeder but never found out what breed she was. We've asked a couple of people their thoughts on it and they have said she is a mixed breed. Honestly, I have no idea what she is, so I wanted to know if you guys could help. Sorry, some photos are...
What breed of chicken is this? I bought her at tractor supply but can’t remember. I feel like it was something that started with an A? Not an amaracauna. Thanks!
I don't clearly remember what the breeder told me Kimberly was. I have horrible memory and remember him saying Frizzle and Silkie or something. I'd like to get some thoughts from the community on what breed she is. There's photos from when she was a chick and her right now.
I'm new to having chickens. We started out with one rooster that my fiance randomly came home with 🤣 then I had get him a hen. my hen randomly passed away.. 🥺 very heartbreaking for me and my kids. So I went out and got 3 pullets ages 16-20 weeks I THINK ANYWAY. I'm wondering what breed they are?
I ordered a bantam assortment of all feather legged from Ideal Poultry awhile back. I also added four EE bantams to the order so therefore technically the ONLY clean legged birds I should’ve received aside from extras would be the EEs. I received all my feather legged birds and three confirmed...
Update: SHE IS AN OLIVE EGGER LOL. Thank you for your help guys :)
Hello!!! I have a little gal and I have NO idea what she is supposed to be. I was told one thing and she seems to be another. She has a funny little hairdo and quite the personality.
Hello all,
I am wondering if anyone knows what breed this chicken may be or what breed she is mixed with? She has black and yellow legs with 5 toes on each foot. I thought she was an Australorp until I noticed the extra toes, comb, and eye color. I got her as a 'hatchery choice' chick. Thanks...
A lot of people were hating on other breeders that cross their chickens with other breed. Here is my opinion:
As long as you are treating your chickens right (by providing their basic necessities) and breeding to create chickens with distinct characteristics like for more meat, eggs, color...
Hi all,
I'm a newbie at raising chickens. I bought from a farm supply store what they told me were three leghorns and two starlight green eggers, but now that my girls are all grown up I'm skeptical. I have only one that's identifiably a leghorn (at least to my amateur eyes). Any ideas what I'm...
