    Egg color… speckled?!

    Hello! I have two Rhode Island reds, not quite a year old. They started laying in early December and they are doing great, free range walks with my old lady hen. They of course lay brown eggs, and Ive found it interesting that one lays a darker brown than the other. Often, the lighter brown...

    Welsummers from Ideal Poultry

    Looking to add some Welsummers to my flock and was wondering if anybody has purchased Welsummer’s through Ideal Poultry. If you have, how are their eggs? Are they dark or speckled? The reason I’m asking is because the hatchery is sold out online of course but I see some scheduled to come in at a...

    I can’t figure out who is laying the speckled eggs!

    So, I think I know who is laying the speckled eggs, but online searches are making me question myself. I know it’s not my Silver Leghorn - hers are white. I know it’s not my Ancona - hers are white. I know it’s not my Blue Ameracaunas - theirs are blue/green. I don’t think it’s my Golden...

    Will her egg always come out like this?

    I've got three Starlight Green Eggers. One (Mocha) started laying light teal green eggs on Christmas morning. Number two (Captain) started laying a beautiful deep olive egg three days later. Today, number three (Mocock) started laying. This is her egg pictured and I have no idea what to call...

    Speckles part of bloom?

    I only have 6 hens and 3 of them lay speckled eggs. They are all different breeds but when I wash the eggs the speckles just wipe right off. Is that normal? I just assumed the speckles were apart of the egg shell not the bloom. Or am I washing eggs too roughly? I use a soft rag, warm water, and...

    Speckled Egger?

    I've been occasionally checking the page for Cackle Hatchery's Speckled Egger for several years now and I've never actually seen them in stock. Does anyone out there actually have these chickens?? I'm starting to believe they're not real! :lol:

    Is this a new egg type or just random speckles?

    I went to collect eggs and found two eggs that were speckled. I currently do not have any adults that would normally be laying speckled eggs yet I have two girls that are 12-13 weeks old. One I’m not sure exactly what she is and the other is an easter egger but I know it’s highly unlikely that...

    Blood-Speckled eggs

    Hi all, I’m receiving these kinds of egg the last few days, the eggs before these looked like they came out of a fire, super rough and dark in places. I had taken her to the vet weeks about being lethargic and sitting in the woods most of the day, but lately she’s moving and eating normally...

    Hen laying funny egg?

    Is this a variation of normal? Just layer feed and the occasional dried fruit treats! Teriyaki just started laying, and this is what her eggs look like.

    Barred Rock Speckled egg??

    I have 2 Golden Comets that are laying and 2 Barred Rock that I’ve been waiting to lay any day. I also have 2 Speckled Sussex that I don’t expect to be laying quite yet. I found this little beauty today and didn’t expect to see a Speckled egg. Does anyone have experience with a BR laying...

    Speckled egg

    Is this speckled egg ok? Should I be worried? My girls just started laying for the first time 2 weeks ago. Not sure who laid it, but they all seem fine.

    Speckled eggs?

    Hi all, I’ve been getting some eggs I think have faded speckles but I was wondering if it’s anything else? It’s not every egg but I see it every now and again. The ones laying are silkie crosses but I’m not sure what with. I just want to make sure they’re speckled and not poor shell quality :idunno

    Strange Speckled Egg

    I went out to the coop to get the eggs from my 3 Buff Orpingtons today and when I looked into the nesting boxes, a very strange egg was waiting for me. It is a very pale, almost white egg with a ton of tanish spots covering it. As you can see, it is much lighter in color compared to the...
