We were thrilled when my beagle, basset seemed chill with the chickens. We never expected her to become the “keeper” of the flock. She loves them so much ❤️
I just got 2 super fluffy cute Easter egger chicks! I was wondering if anyone had any that looked like them and have pictures of what they ended up looking like? Thanks In advance!
Hello!
Has anyone ever crossed true Americana black hen with a brown Leghorn rooster? What do the hens and roosters end up looking like? All Easter Egger layers? Hearty?
Thank you for any answers and photos!

We recently got our second round of chickens, so it's time again for the age old question -- pullet or cockerel?
All are about two and a half months old (got them April 1 and April 7).
Easter Egger: Max
Easter Egger: Chloe
She's the one I'm worried about.
Australorp: Nilin...
Hi! Any idea on what could be going on with my 5 week old EE? The other 5 look fine. This one’s neck looks scabby and is missing feathers. No signs of illness. No bleeding, even though it looks scabby. We check them over every single night and this is a new development that I noticed today...
Hi guys! First time posting here. I have a small flock of chickens that are 2 years old now- and this spring I decided to add some new ones. These three were sold to me as straight run Ameraucanas. This breed is new to me! And I've heard they are difficult to sex. Also from reading previous...
Hello everyone! My husband and I are raising our first flock of backyard chickens. We have Rhode Island reds, barred rocks, and ameraucanas (yes, I know they are actually Easter eggers since we got them from a hatchery). We ordered all pullets but decided we wanted to free range, so we are...
Easter eggers....New to the breed and not quite sure the genders. One is for sure a cockerel but not certain on the other 3. Thanks for any help! (And sorry i couldnt get better pictures!)
Is there any way to identify a Cream Legbar from an Easter Egger or a Prairie Blue Bell? Hoover sent a box of chicks to my feed store - they didn’t band or identify any of them. It was a box of EE, PBB, Sapphire Olive Eggers, and Legbars. I had specifically ordered a Legbar and was hoping I got...
is this chicken an Easter egger? I’ve thought she’s a hen for 15 weeks and now im second guessing, could she actually be a Roo? also she’s fast as lightning and incredibly evasive so as far as pictures go this is all i have right now 😂
I have never had EE's before and I see some roo-ish to several.
Any ideas here?
I would love to not have all roo's but one or two would be ok. I already have 5 hens of varying breeds. I really dont need 6 more pullets either 🤣
I had a jersey giant Roo whomwas gorgeous and I loved but he had...
Making this thread so you can show off your peeps! Post pics and there breeds or mixes! I would also love to see cool crosses! Also hoping to get some inspo on some more potential breeds I love seeing them!
Here’s some of ours!
1) we have our Rooster who is an EE I think brown red ameracauna...
Ok here’s a weird one. I bought 2 EE chicks about 16 weeks ago that were “sexed” as hens. Everything about them has seemed mostly hennish except that one of them, Flora, sprouted a beautiful colorful plumage and these gorgeous flowing tail feathers. I assumed it was just a cool trait since...
Hello! :frow
I am inserting pics here of two hatchmates. They were hatched on 4/19 and are from the same hen and same rooster. Mama is a White Leghorn and Daddy is an Ameraucana.
Fairly certain that the guy on the left with the hybrid walnut/pea comb is a definite ROO. He started showing roo...
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...
