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.

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...
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.

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...
