easter egger

Recently got some straight run chicks from TS labeled 'Americana.' Though it would be fun to post pictures and guess what they might turn out as. Here are pictures at 3 days old and 4 weeks (sorry they didn't want to stand still for these). I'll update every few weeks. Figured this might help...

We have 4 easter eggers that are supposed to all be pullets. I have always been suspicious of one of them because she(?) has always been bigger and her comb grew in bigger than the others and is now starting to pink up as the others remain yellow. She also has red on her shoulders, but it still...

Two Easter egger chicks about six to seven weeks old. I am 99.9% positive the white one (Sider) is a roo. I’m not quite sure about the darker one (Peri.) she/ he is not developing a comb like Sider is, but the reddish/brown on the shoulders leads me to believe roo. Peri has always been the...

She was vent-sexed as female, 4 weeks old. Very docile. Could she be a he?

New chicken owner and I think out of my 5 chicks I may have 2 roos. I am obsessing over here🤣. One of my Black Jersey Giants I am 99% sure as it was slower to feather and developed the pink comb earlier and looks different from other. Out of my 2 Easter Eggers I think the grey one may also be a...

We have 2 EEs who I think are probably roosters based on other postings I have seen, but wanted to post some pictures just to make sure. They are both a little over 8 weeks old, but they are very sweet and don’t act like our brown leghorn rooster of the same age. It may be obvious by their...

I have my second round of chicks, and I’m suspecting that one of my EEs is a roo. They were all apparently sexed. But so was the last bunch, and one of my Orloffs ended up being a roo and I was able to figure it out relatively quickly. Anyways! I have 1 buff Orpington and 2 EEs (one white and...

She was vent sexed as a female (90% accuracy), but I’m a little concerned about her splotchy coloring and large comb. She’s a little over 3 weeks old. Her sister has a similar comb, but more even coloring on the feathers. They both feathered out super early. The comb is yellow with no signs of...

Okay. So all my “girls” are 12 weeks old now and I think we don’t have a roo. The biggest girl who’s definitely top of the order has been my main concern but at this point, her comb isn’t redder than any of the other ones and they all seem to be rocking similar feather patters. I don’t have...

Hi! I'm a first-time chick owner. This is also my first day on this forum, which I've heard a lot of great things about! I got 7 chicks from a really reputable guy in our area. He gets all of his chicks vent sexed at the hatchery where he orders from. They're all soooo friendly, and they...

Hi! My name is Nat. I recently brought home my first ever baby chicks. I am in love with their outgoing, sweet personalities and I can't wait to watch them grow! (1) My grandfather had chickens and owned/worked a farm. This is my first experience with chickens, and I would like to open up a...

This it my kids favorite chick because of its fluffy cheeks 😊 It is a super calm chick and does sometimes choose to sit on us. What makes me ever more suspicious is while I was looking at it today I noticed a very slight blush/red at the base of its tiny comb - should I be preparing my kids for...

Experts, what do you think? Hen or roo? I have some other roo ee's who have pronounced hackle and saddle feathers than Parsnip here, but Parsnip is larger than the hens. Thanks in advance, Allyson

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Yes! This is our first straight run that we purchased from a local boys home. Not exactly sure of age! (2) How many chickens do you have right now? 9 (3) What breeds do you have? Easter eggers (4) What are your favorite aspects...

We are new to chicken life. This is our first straight run of EEs. Hoping for a few hens but loving the personalities that we have forming. The multicolored one is my favorite & definitely leaning towards a rooster.

In a couple of days these four will be seven weeks old. Two buff Orphington and two Easter Eggers. Would love some help with determining which are hens and which are roosters.

Hello! I’m making this post to help my friend with his chicken, i’m attaching the text he sent in regards to how she’s acting. He said after researching that most sources told him it wasn’t anything big but he’s still worried and wants to make sure it’s actually okay ! For reference, the hen is...

Six week old chicks no longer need heat lamp. Have been vaccinated for Marek’s and are coop ready. Five are males and five are female. Have the following breeds left: 1 male Birchen Cochin bantam 2 female Birchen Cochin bantams 1 male Silver Sebright bantam 1 female Silver Sebright bantam 1...
