We got this Green Queen from Meyer Hatchery as a free “meal maker” layer chick. She’s got muffs and 5 toes.
We are really hoping she’s a pullet as she’s calm and friendly and we love her fluffy face.
She had big legs as a small chick but now is the same size as our Brahma chick who is...
We have two green queen EEs and one silver laced Wyandotte! I’m new to chickens and just can’t tell. :) the first three pictures are from today, 10 weeks, and the last two are about 8 weeks.
I have an 18 week old gray Green Queen rooster in need of a flock to protect/lead. This is Graybeard. He’s a little timid and has never tried to hurt or attack us. We hatched four chicks this summer and three were roosters so unfortunately we need to find them homes. I’d like to find him a...

Hello all. My green queen popped this egg out today and I thought it was really weird. I just want to see if this is something that can happen occasionally to eggs or if there is something else going on. Below is a picture of the egg she produced today. Generally her eggs range from a light...
Hi,
Im a first time chicken owner and one of my flock ended up being a rooster. I live in Scottsdale, which doesn’t permit roosters, so need to rehome him. He was hatched on March 18; and I’ve raised him since March 19th. He is vaccinated for Mareks Disease. I feed him organic Scratch & Peck...
Hi! First time posting on here. My 20 week Austrawhite was the first hen to exhibit symptoms. She had black spots on her, but I was able to get them off with Vaseline. A week later I noticed a chapped like substance & black dots on her comb. My husband seems to think the spots are dirt and the...
Ok so I’ve been a little in denial because we’ve been hoping for only one rooster but I fear we have 3 roos out of the 4 chicks we got from a friend, who hatched them in an incubator. These chicks are 8 weeks old. The are buff Orpingtons and the gray and black ones are Green Queens. So the...
My green queen laid her first egg today and I was so excited to see the pretty color. Well its clearly white not even tinted in the slightest. Any chance it'll turn green as she lays more? My black copper marans egg darkened she was from the same brooder and she laid her first egg last week it...
Hi! I'm new here. I hope this is the right place to post! I have two 10-week-old pullets that I bought as Green Queens. I'm super interested in the patterns they carry and would love to learn more. One (Te Kā) I recognize the crest as a cream legbar mix but her coloring was not typical of the...
Hi there! This was a sexed pullet from Meyer Hatchery, hatch date January 23, so about 10 weeks old. What do you think? Cockerel or pullet? (And I apologize, not amazing pictures I know.)
I had a bad experience with Meyer and decided to go with MPC when ordering chicks this time around. But, I’m just now figuring out that the hatcheries are/were affiliated. The threads I saw are years old, so I’m here to ask if it’s possible that they’re not affiliated anymore?
Meyer forgot to...
Hello....
We just began our adventure of raising chicks. We are currently are parents (3-adults), grandparents and dog lovers. Our kids have mostly 'flown the coop' and so we decided to add to our home flock, some chickens. My husband grew up on a farm and I'm a city girl. So, bear with me...
Hello!
I have three different breed pullets that are 9 weeks old as of 9/15. I think I'm ready to start getting some opinions to make sure they are indeed pullets. I'm not allowed to have a Roo and I want to have plenty of time to try to rehome. I anticipate posting more photos in the future...
Hello, I'm planning on getting Green Queens(Technically still an EE), & was wanting to see pictures of your birds, & their egg colors to see what I'd be expecting from mine once I get them next spring.
I'm looking to re-home my green queen cockeral. He hatched around thanksgiving from Meyer hatchery. He's great, healthy, well behaved. He's not a cuddler. He's a littletl shy, but I can handle him. He's not a bully. I'm in the madison Wisconsin area. He's cute and goofy. He looks about like a...
