    8-week old pullets - Austin, TX

    Hi BYC, I'm in Austin, TX. We're moving unexpectedly, and I am so very sad to say that I have to re-home my mixed flock. The flock has seven 8-week-old pullets, one suspected 8-week-old roo (not sure of breed), and two older birds that are still laying, but coming to an end. I hand-raised all...

    Are these EEs or did I get played?

    Hey guys! I found this lady online ( I know. Insert eye roll) and she advertised that she had a ton of EEs that hatched around 4/20 (she was unsure of the date) So I go to her place to pick them out. There’s literally HUNDREDS of baby chicks there. And then she’s like “oh there’s probably some...

    Olive Egger Roo?

    Our 4-5 week old Olive Eggers have different combs. Would this one absolutely be a roo? The coloring is very pheasant-like which has me confused. It’s so sweet I really hope not.

    Splash OIive Egger 11weeks - both cockerels?

    These two have me stumped. They’re very similar and I can’t figure out if they’re both cockerels or not....I realize I can wait a few weeks but like guessing...and planning. They’re 11 weeks old. I’ll post pics of #1 and #2. I always thought #2 was more girly with a Single row pea comb but now...

    Easter Eggers/Olive Eggers - 7-8 weeks old

    Hey everyone, first time poster so I hope I’m doing this right! I picked up 6 straight run Easter Eggers/Olive Eggers, should be about 8 weeks now but I’ve got one that’s much smaller with a smaller comb. I’m wondering if it’s maybe a week younger than the rest but I’m also hoping it’s a pullet...

    Gender in Breed?

    This little sweetie is nearly 4 weeks. It hatched from a Black Cooper Maran egg. The farm I got it from she thought it could be a black crossed with an olive egger, or maybe just a really dark Blue Cooper Maran. Out of the bunch it’s my favorite. The comb is prominent but there is no sign it’s...

    Olive egger genetics

    Just to make sure in on the right page, a brown layer and a blue layer crossed are olive correct? I saw a post that said only a brown gene rooster over a blue hen will produce olive. I tried to find info in search but this exact comment did not show. Thank you

    Newbie genetics and egg colour questions

    Hi all, I’m new to breeding and understanding genetics and have so many questions. To start, I’m wondering how the blue/green egg genes translate and what happens when you breed a Silverudds Isbar with blue egg layers (cc Legbar) or olive layers (marans/ameraucana mix)? Does the green genetics...

    Earlobe color change?

    Hi BYC- First time chicken owner of ~5 months here. I have two pullets whose earlobe colors seem to be changing. I'm a bit worried about the olive egger because the color seems to be more yellow (the austra white's ears seems more white). I'm not sure if infectious - don't see any pus or...
