First Egg Countdown

[Jaggs]

The golf ball trick seems to work too. The nesting box that was all messed up was the only one with a golf ball in it. The golf ball was moved to the end and burried as well. cool!

She is not a welsummer. She is a hatchery RIR or possibly a New Hampshire- both are called a Production Reds.

This is a welsummer:

Happychooks, First of all gorgeous birds. I have a production red (although she looks exactly like a RIR) but they don't have neck laced/specked neck feathers like Welsummers. So I think Twinklin is right on this that she is probably a Welsummer cross with RIR or New Hampshire cross with Welsummer. Either way she lays beautiful eggs so kpsocalchicks89 is lucky.

Here is a pic of my production red Tree-Trunks

My production RIR looks just like yours All solid red color but looking at pictures online I see that New Hampshires can have that golden laced feather look to their hackle feathers like KP's has. I'm not familiar with the breed though so not sure if that's the standard or if the ones I'm seeing in some of the pictures are crosses.

Midget is in a storage box in the coop. They NEVER go in here, and didn't see the point of moving it. She's not supposed to be in here.

I have Americauna EE's. I was told that they lay pink, blue, and green eggs. (Not sure if they lay brown or white) This was our first egg, and it's green!
