    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!

    Hello 👋🏼 I have 6 chicks hatched May 28/29 - now 7 weeks old in these pictures. I’m still unsure of the sex on a few of them. Would appreciate your input! 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...

    Hello! New Chicken owner in Middle TN

    Hello, I’m MJ and I picked up my first 3 chicks back in late March. I started with 2 speckled Sussex pullets and 1 buff Orpington pullet. My buff was a sweet little thing but while waiting on being able to move to our new home with a yard (was delayed by almost 2 months :/) they went to my...

    Old English Game Bantams or what?

    These were sold to me as sapphire olive eggers, born April 12th 2021...they’re small and look more like OEGBs... can anyone confirm or tell me what they are?

    5 - 5 week olds- Hen or Roo?

    Hello! I have my first batch of babies from a broody hen. It was an exciting experience. I have a feeling I have one Roo... but could there be more? These babies are about 5 weeks. They are a cross of olive egger and black Maran Thanks for your help! 😊

    Ameraucana and Olive Egger Sexing

    Hello! I have one Olive Egger I am fairly certain is a rooster and one Ameraucana I suspect is a rooster. I also have one chicken that I hope is an Ameraucana but suspect it is an OE. I ordered 5 and got a 6th so I’m not sure what the extra is. I am guessing they were at least a week old when I...

    Can I wing sex this “breed?”

    Hello!! I’ve done wing sexing before when I crossed my leghorn over a few different hen breeds. Just wondering if I can wing sex Olive Eggers... I’ve got marans roosters and I crossed them over my Ameraucanas to make Olive egger babies. I’m okay with waiting it out, but a couple friends of...

    5 toes???

    Dad is suppose to be a Maran, mom I was told is an EE but suspect OE. One of the 2 babies has 5 toes! Attached is a pic of mom, dad and baby's feet. Maybe a birth defect? The one toe doesn't look right.

    What are mom and dad and what color eggs could be laid?

    I was told Dad is a Maran and mom is an EE. Mom looks more like an OE, I think. Babies hatched from light green eggs. Would they be likely to lay green eggs?

    Guess the breed (BCM, OE and EE) and the sex please!

    we picked up day olds from a local farm. We were told we were getting 2 Black Copper Marans, 2 Olive Eggers and 1 Easter Egger. None were sexed. So I’m hoping you fine people who likely have more experience than I do, can help me identify which is which and then also perhaps what sex. Note that...

    Sharing cuteness

    Hatched 4/22/21. Dad was a black Maran, mom was told was an EE, but based on pictures pretty sure she was an OE. Adoptive mom is a RIR. They were allowed to integrate immediately. We even had 2 surprise unfertilized eggs left in her hatching nest ( I created it after that lol).

    New and need help identifying sexes and breeds

    Hi all! I recently purchased seven chicks and its probably still a bit early to confirm sexes and breeds for sure but I'd appreciate any help you could provide on this! I know at least two chicks are not the breed we thought we bought, I now suspect they are Olive Eggers. The others I think...

    I’m baffled.... anyone else?

    Well, I thought I knew a smidgen about sexing chickens but I am now questioning everything lol. I have 4 olive eggers. I was told by this breeder that they were all F3 olive eggers. But truly.... I have no idea lol. I bought them straight run and originally had 7. 3 of which I had already...
