PLEASE SHOW ME YOUR LAVENDER ORPINGTON x EE PICS!
I am a fairly new “chicken lady” hatching some of eggs from my existing flock with one of my favorite ladies, Silvia (lavender orpington) and my funniest roo, George (Brown Red Easter Egger, strong ameraucana features).
Has anyone crossed...
Our flock
Emily our gray bantom cochin and Isbe were currently tied between a few breeds.
Rizo our black sex link
And finally, truffles. Our black hedemora roo
Rizo loves food and follows isbe around everywhere, but can be a bit of a bully (mostly to Isbe)
Isbe is a gentle giant, the...
Hello,
I'm Grandma Cookie and I just got my chickens a few weeks ago. I picked up 3 pullets - Barred Rock, Black Copper Maran, and am Easter Egger. These ladies are wonderful, and I'm enjoying them very much. I purchased a coop (8' X 10' shed) made by an Amish man that is very sturdy and...
Hey everyone!! We have an EE hen that's almost a year old now, and she began laying at around 6 months old.
A little under 2 months ago, she got sick and had a problem with an egg inside her--after a few Epsom salt baths she eventually passed the membrane/egg safely. We gave her the safeguard...
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I had chickens when I was very young and am getting back into them. I'm focusing on Russian Orloffs while I work on a Michigan-specific breed based on their temperament and cold-tolerance.
(2) How many chickens do you have right...
I have a easter egger x Delaware hen that is around a year and 3 months old named Olivia. She is kind of known to hate chicks and loves to peck all chickens smaller than her. However, lately she has been laying eggs later than usual and takes longer to lay them. (usually she would lay before we...
Hey y’all I’m interested in discussing and comparing my flocks with others.
currently I have 4 barred rocks, 4 Americanas , 1 Easter egger, and 1 Supposed Isbar

I picked up 5 Easter Egg chicks today from Tractor Supply. While I was watching the chicks I saw one that was running in loops and it looked like it was on crack (for a lack of better words). I had an employee pack up five chicks and I specifically tried not to get the hyper one but, once he...
Hello all!
My first time owning chickens... I incubated some eggs I got from mypetchicken and all my other chicken sex is obvious except for one.... Jackson (my 3yo son named it after himself). Jackson is an Easter Egger. Jackson acted like a rooster early on, always puffing his chest out and...
Hello all!
This is our first go with chickens, and these guys are mixes, with parents including EE’s Ameraucanas, olive eggers, and some others. They’re all 12 weeks old. We just want eggs for the family and so didn’t mind what breeds we got too much, but we do need to re-home some extra...
HELP! I’m not sure on age, maybe 2-3 months? Just trying to find out if I have any roos. BJ is black jersey giant, BR Is barred rock, and #1 & #2 are EE... I’m not seeing any roo behaviors so far. TIA for any insight ☺🙂
Hi! I got my chicks 2 weeks ago and my Easter Egger chicks has a brownish reddish raised spot on her chest. Her skin, under her fur, is reddish. I have one other yellow chick and I checked under her fur and she has regular colored skin. I’m so afraid. Does anybody know what this is?
I got 3 americaunas, none look like an americauna, but this one looks way different than the others! Can someone please help me figure out what chick it is? I am so stumped. I’ve never seen on with markings like this on the face. It’s got eyeliner, zig-zags, and it’s super fluffy.
Hello! I have 4 beautiful EEs that Ive raised ever since they were chicks. They are good girls, the best chickens, even the vet said that they're very docile and almost loving birds. I am having troubles with one of my girls, she likes to peck at my feet! It doesn't hurt but it is very annoying...
