    Cant tell if my chickens are really pullets

    I have 1 Olive Egger, 1 Black Maran, & 1 Blue Maran Pullets. They are 6 & 7 weeks old ( they look a little younger to me to be honest). According to the person I got them from, they are all Pullets. But, I just don't feel confident that they are all Pullets. Anyone think one of these guys is a...

    8.5 Weeks Old - Thoughts?

    I'm still struggling to identify a few of my chickens and hopefully yall can help me! They are about 8.5 weeks old now. No one has tried to crow yet. I have seen some behaviors out of a few of them that have me leaning a certain way. If you think you know, can you please explain what you are...

    This IS a cockerel, right?

    I'm planning on selling these six week old chicks because I'm certain they're cockerels and I can't have that many roos where I am but I wanted some other opinions and to double check because I genuinely love both of them. The red one is probably an olive egger and the black and white one is...

    What is this??

    Hello! So I bought some eggs that I was told were Sapphire Gems. They just hatched yesterday and surprise!!! Definitely NOT Sapphire Gems! They looks like Olive Eggers but the eggs they came out of were light brown. Any ideas? Thank you!

    Weekly Growth

    Hi there! I've much enjoyed stumbling upon threads of weekly chick growth/progression so I figured its finally time to throw my hat in the ring! I purchased all sexed pullets and I'm pretty sure I have 1 or more cockerels on my hands (so it goes). I'm a first time chicken owner in a residential...

    Hen or Roo?!

    Noticed the curly tail on my supposed pullet this afternoon. (S)he is my favorite of my newest and I’m so sad because if she’s a he, he’s gotta go😭 New to Olive Eggers, so hoping there’s a chance it’s a she!

    Green-footed new baby ❤️

    Does anyone have chickens that have green feet? My new chicks are ameraucana and Marans so I'm not sure what kind of mix she might be. I'm excited to see what she turns out to look like.

    Olive egger/Rhode Island crossed to grey leghorn

    Last year we purchased a rooster that we thought was exceptionally beautiful and great attitude. He was the result of an Olive Egger rooster over a Rhode Island hen. He was thick in body, heavy feather with a short fat comb, thick legs. We then bred the rooster to our two grey leghorns, two...

    Mars Bar Olive Eggers

    I did this cross because I had wanted a BCM hen, but made some olive lemonade before the BCM cockerel (straight run didn't result in a female) went to a new home. I set the next 7 eggs my pullet CCL laid and this olive egger, who was the one I kept out of the 3 fertile eggs, has finally come...

    5 Week old; Rooster or Hen?

    Hi, first time chicken owner here. We got 8 chickens right now and this is the only one that has a red coloring to it’s comb already. It’s also supposed to be an olive Egger. About 5 weeks old. Any guesses?

    Breeding brown egg gene to green egg layer?

    Our almost 1 year old Cuckoo Marans cockerel carries the dark brown egg gene. We have an Olive Egger who lays green eggs and I was hoping to find out from others what the possible ratio would be for the female offspring's egg color. I know there's no way to know until after they start laying but...

    9 week old Olive Egger - pullet or cockerel?

    Hi, this Olive Egger girl was purchased from a farm store, which claims they have a 90% accuracy rate on sexing and offered in a bin full of all females. It doesn’t have much of a comb (which is very pale), and its behavior is extremely timid. It’s size is approximately the same as the other...

    Future Hens or Roos? FBCM X CCL

    I have 3 five week old French Black Copper Marans (roo) X Crested Cream Legbar (hen) chicks and of course I am trying to figure out if I have pullets or cockerels. The mom lays fairly olive colored eggs already, so I would think the eggs of these will be even darker olive. I only plan on...

    Olive Egger Breeding

    Hi, I got F1 olive egger roosters, whose parents are black copper maran and legbar. Was wondering if I bred the roosters to my Lohmann brown hens who lay a nice brown egg, or my buff orpington hens, will I get the green eggs that a olive egger should lay? Thanks!
