8 month old chicken breed?

[CluckerFamily]

She looks pretty red for her face... possibly a couple weeks away from laying especially if she squatted for you.

I haven’t even read the thread yet, but I get to post pics of JB so that’s a huge win

I don't care for eggs unless its for baking. I have them because they are cuddly and easy to take care of. i hate dogs(smell) even when clean and CATS OMG i can't stand cats.
so chickens it was!

How many do you have? If you don't like eggs you can sell them and earn back part of the feed bill.

Almost all my EEs have big cheeks, only 2 out of the 16 don’t have cheeks. This is my Pearl that sort of looks like yours and she is the biggest of all my EEs:

I never had an EE and my friend is wrong then. your chicken is so puffy. mine is slim and strong. but i did have her sexed by a vet. they said they don't know her breed for me to see her eggs and that will tell me the breed. she was not sure either.

@TheOddOneOut has silvery easter eggers like that. It's actually a more common EE pattern. Araucanas are rumpless, and true Ameraucanas are NOT likely to be found at a feed store. They always lay blue and come in recognizable colors that breed true.

Pearl is 2 years old. My pullets from the spring are slim. They will get more hen like in the spring.

Not all EEs will have Beards. As mixes, you can’t garuntee what You’re getting, and some will have full combs, or be beardless.

She is an EE. A pretty one to!

I can't look at a chicken and say it is the same breed if they don't have the same color feathers. @CHlCKEN you might be able but i'm not....
