I bought 6 straight run Easter Eggers. They are 8-9 weeks old. What are your guesses on genders? I took multiple pics of the birds and combined in a pic to help with comb/feathers/color/angles.
I feel like first 3 are pullets. They are dainty, never fight and are just docile. Unsure on my last...
Would they basically be olive eggers? Got a potential rooster olive egger and 4 colors of wyandotte hens. What egg color of layers would come from the offspring?
I am wondering if anyone has guesses on my 7 week old Buff Orpington and 7 week old EE.
Buff Orp:
Easter egger/mutt really has me stumped. Her tail feathers grew in super early and she's pretty timid, but comb seems to be growing.
Closeup of Easter Egger, in some lights the comb looks...
Help! This is only my second round of chicks, and my first round of Easter eggers. I bought 3 chicks from the local feed store. Sold as Easter egger pullets. But I think one (currently named Miss Cleo) might actually be a mister? Baby photo for reference and then group photos to see development...
So I have been waiting ages for my new laying hen yo start laying. Have found 1 or 2 eggs in the past but today stumbled on the mother load .
these eggs are from the offspring of my green egg layers over my BCM rooster.
I was worried about the genetics of the BCM but seems to be doing the...
Hello,
I have a 12 week old Easter Egger Cockerel who I need to re-home due to Local Ordinance not allowing me to own a Rooster. He was going by Sarah when I believed him to be a hen but now he will need a new one.
He is very timid but sweet. He doesn’t mind being handled and enjoys hopping...
Our beautiful Snowball has been giving some serious Roo energy. Big legs, much larger than our other chicks, most aggressive/adventurous, and some curled tail feathers BUT no dark or brown chest feathers. 7 week old Easter Egger. Any thoughts? Luckily will be able to keep Snowball regardless but...
I've got 3 baby roos, all are mixed but I can list the parents below.
2 of them have fluffy cheeks and those came from Easter Egger hens.
The other came from a Chocolate Orphington hen.
My rooster is Lavendar Orphington x Golden Laced Wyandotte

Hello. This isn't an emergency, just a casual question. Majestic the Easter Egger hen is strangley swaying her head alot. She has started doing this in the last 5 days.
I have a video of her doing it since it's hard to explain.
She does it every few minutes then she's completely fine. :) 😀...
We got a few Easter egger pullets from TS about 3 weeks ago, and normally I would say that’s way too early to sex a chick but what do you guys think? This one’s comb and waddles are very bright, and it’s comb is pretty wide though very flat.
Hello everyone! Hope your day is going good.
This is my first time raising chickens. And I need some help in identifying one of my Easter Eggers. Would anyone be able to take a look at my majestically bearded chicken and tell me what gender they think he/she is?
I live in the city so I can't...
Hello,
I live in Northern Utah near Ogden but was raised in Salem, Utah. My family lives out in the Lake Shore and Benjamin areas of Utah on farms but they are not the kind to help answer questions as they feel you need to learn from your mistakes.
I am new to raising chickens and geese. My...
Alright. I suspect I know the answer. And while I know this "suspected roo" is just attacking those not "in his flock", I'm not sure if he'll outgrow it. ??
We have 3 - 6week old boys, hatched ourselves(easter eggers. Blue Wheaten Ameraucana is sire from local breeder), and obviously they play...
Hi ya’ll!! there’s not too much out there on Lavender EE’s! I was sold this baby as a sexed female from a reputable hatchery, and am not sure if I should be worried at this comb…she’s just a hair over 4 weeks old. What do you think? Noodle <3 I’d be heartbroken to have to part with her as...
Soooo, please tell me no.
My Easter Egger… might be my 3rd roo?? This is 12 weeks old EllieMae. No boy sounds, comb looks pink to me and scrawny legs - but I’m getting a vibe from feathers. And she repeatedly has been bossing around my barnevelder boy. So far 2/5 from my supposed to be female...
I guess this would fall under behavior? How many of you have hens that have grown spurs? My Easter Egger girl is a year old, very docile, friendly girl and lays green eggs…many of them soft shell. She’s been growing some big spurs compared to the rest of her siblings.
