I’m in NE Texas and just built (put together) my first coop and had a guy come over and build a 10 x 16 run around the coop because in our city to have chickens they have to be totally enclosed. The coop said for 10-15 chickens, but that could only be correct just for roosting! I bought 8 chicks...
looking to rehome my rooster, I have too many.
I live in central florida
i am willing to deliver within a certain mile radius, just ask! He is strong, healthy, & parasite free.
Not sure if this is an ear infection on my Easter Egger or a pecking wound.
She’s typically the dominant hen and not too many mess with her.
I picked the scab and no puss, just pale pink flesh crater (if that makes sense)
* I wish I took pictures after I removed it 🤦🏼♀️
Any ideas? Treatment...
Just placed an order at Ideal Poultry, I’ve ordered once from them before but it was YEARS ago maybe in 2014. My orders due to ship 08/09 so I’m excited to hear from people about their experiences with Ideal nowadays!
My first ever order from them I ordered 8 assorted bantams and received 20...
I have this gorgeous Bantam Easter Egger I got from a Bantam Assortment from Cackle Hatchery. I’ve posted about her before asking for help figuring out her coloring and genetics, and from what I got as answers she looks like a splash. Now I know Easter Eggers are most of the time made from...
We bought 2 chicks at a livestock swap a week ago that were labeled as Splash Wyandottes. I have no doubt about 1 of them, but the other has me scratching my head (the one that's more gold). It doesn't look like the other one or like other Wyandotte chicks I've seen. The chicks were in a bin...
So once again I feel like I have been duped by the hatchery that Rural King uses! These are my "teenagers" that are about 3 months old (born in April)
I picked out and bought 4 Cuckoo Marans, 2 Sapphire Gems and 2 Easter Eggers. One of the EE died after a week so that is why I only have 1 now...
Hello,
Thank you in advance to anyone who can assist. I am new to chicken keeping. I ordered seven baby chicks from MPC. They are 6.5 weeks old currently. I ordered six girls and one boy. However, I have my suspicions that some of my bullets are actually roos.
I have an assortment of breeds.
1...
Hey. I have the opportunity to get one of these boys to go with my ameracauna splash and blue hens and hopefully have more splashes, but it’s so easy to have people post as pure Ameracaunas when they’re actually Easter eggers so I was hoping I could get some second opinions?
So this is a bit difficult to word the way I’m trying to ask, so correct me if it makes no sense but I have a bantam Easter egger who has the most beautiful coloring. She’s only about two months old but I’m very curious about her possible genetics. I know Easter Eggers are mixes and hatcheries...
This chick is a mixture of an EE and Mosaic. Due to the comb and wattle size I always assumed it was female, but look at it's pointy tail feathers! That means it's gotta be a male right? Note, it's a Fibromelanistic breed so redness of the comb and face is not a factor i can rely on.
Bought some Wyandotte eggs off a local chicken page and they threw in an extra egg. The egg was blue while the rest were cream colored Wyandotte eggs but I do know the woman only has one rooster so definitely a Blue Laced Red Wyandotte dad. What do you think is it a girl or boy and what breed is...
Hi, Everyone. My EE, Easter, is a little over 4 y/o and has, this past month, been struggling with recurring cases of EYP which thus far has been treatable. She's been an odd case all her life. Here's a snapshot of her history.
Easter is pint-sized with an unstoppable will to survive. She's the...
I’m new at chicks. We have 18 different breeds. Four of which were supposed to be Easter Egger. Someone said they thought this chick was a Rooster. Do you agree? What traits distinguish between hens and roosters? They were hatched around May 24, 2023
Anyone know what this bluebell Easter egger pullet will look like when she gets older? Or have any good guesses? Lol
first time seeing one so unique with silver/white/blue wings
Hello everyone.
Does anyone here know the Easter Egger genetics ,or cross breeds of Ideal poultry?
From what I’ve learned so far Easter Eggers are a “mutt” and are not a recognized breed to the APA. They have genetics of the Ameraucana and some other breed.
I did reach out to Ideal poultry...
I’m about to have laying chickens and none have layed yet this morning I went outside and one of my EE is very vocal and going in and outside and I noticed a egg white mucus like substance on the coop ramp? Is this something like a disease or is she about to lay her first egg do chickens produce...
Hi everyone. This is Cheeks! She is an easter egger, 2 weeks old, vaccinated, on medicated starter. Growing well up until I found her very lethargic and dehydrated Monday (6/26) around 11am. She is unable to stand on her own, with her legs falling out from under her like this every time. She...
