    I'm Thinking "Mars Bar"

    Here is a pullet we have that is absolutely unique. I assume she's an Olive Egger marans/cream legbar mix. She has gray feathered legs, huge, rivals our Brahma in size, approximately 6 months, but she isn't laying yet so no eggs to help us decide. She's also the head chick in charge, very...

    Finally...Olive Egger Pullets Are Laying!

    What's better than a first egg?? :wee Found this little surprise today in the run (not the nest box - naughty girl - but will let it slide because she's new to it 🙄). Hoping it means the rest of the 6.5 month old girls will start laying soon, too. The pullet egg (L) is from a blue-laying EE...

    Crosses with Blue Copper Roo

    I wanted to share… The five chicks I hatched from a Blue Copper Marans Roo. Three hatched from a Black Copper Marans hen, and 2 out of the three look to be Blue and one black. The other eggs I hatched from was a Blue Isbar or Silerudd’s Blue. And the 5th chick came from my Lavender Ameraucana. I...

    Blue Maran Rooster x Easter Egger

    I had 6 chicks hatch this week. They are a cross between a Blue Maran rooster (brown egg) and an Easter Egger Hen (light green egg). They are only a few days old and I am curious if anyone else has a similar cross and what did the offspring's egg color turn out to be? I was hoping to make some...

    My Egg Pipped!

    I'm just super excited so I made a thread! My girls just stared laying and I popped one egg in the bator and it pipped this morning! It's from my Sapphire Olive Egger (she doesn't lay green eggs but oh well) and most likely my White Japanese Bantam. It's pipped at the wrong end but I've had eggs...

    Can anyone help at sexing my chicks??

    I have 4 chicks that are about 4 weeks old and would love to see if anyone had any ideas about whether they’re hens or roosters! I know 4 weeks might be too early but the suspense is killing me and I have no idea about sexing chicks so thought I’d see if anyone had any ideas! We have two...

    Hi from Pennsylvania, USA

    Hi! I’m Cecilia! I currently have 8 hens, one barred rock (Ruthie), 2 sex-link (Dorothy and Barbara), 3 EE (Leia, Sally, and Chermie), and 2 OE (Tina and Nayna). As you can see, my 4 year old took great pleasure in naming some of them 🤣. I’ve been at this about 6 months, having acquired my first...

    Newbie to Broody 🙋🏻‍♀️

    Hey! out of our flock of 15, one little lady (she’s either a blue Plymouth Rock or an Olive Egger, I still can’t tell the difference. Feel free to enlighten me!) and she’s 5 months old. She *might* have started laying eggs just recently but there are 12 others that I’m trying to keep up with, as...

    More chick sexing - would love your opinions!

These are a mix of Easter/Olive eggers and black copper marans. These are the two I’m suspecting are cockerels. The black one for sure, the...

    Mixed breed gender thoughts - Olive Egger and Silkie/EE

    Hi there! I have a 12 week Olive Egger and a 12 week Silkie/EE mix and I’m questioning the gender for both. I’m a new backyard chicken owner and would appreciate insight from more experienced chicken owners. Thanks in advance for your help!

    Ameraucana or partridge olive egger

    This chick was sent to me as a “surprise rare breed”. I can’t tell from its markings what it is. I am thinking either an Ameracauna or partridge olive egger. Unless there is something else it could be?

    Sex-linked Olive Egger Genetics ?

    I started hatching from a cross that should be sex-linked but so far none of the chicks have hatched with the telltale white spot. I might’ve assumed all pullets, but now at 2 weeks it appears a blonde chick is developing barring. Cross is Wheaten Marans Rooster x Cream Legbar Hen. I was...
