That sure looks like a Rhode Island Red. I'm so confused! I did have some RIRs with them in the pen before I gave them to you. If you incubated eggs right away you may have gotten a RIR X EE. I'm sorry....
Stay safe, everyone!
I'm really glad to have a RIR/ee roo now! Hoping to get some Olive eggers or green eggers hatched out this year(There are Marans and ee hens in the tractor). This was sweet luck!
I talked with an old timer today who explained the egg assembly line to me. He detailed the life of an an egg from time of fertilization, to actually being laid and told me it takes 28 days. Does this sound right?

It takes approx. 26 HRS. for an egg to go thru the assbly. line

The slow-moving Lee could bring winds of 65 mph when it makes landfall this weekend, according to CNN meteorologist Sean Morris.
The current track suggests a possible landfall west of Morgan City on Sunday morning, Morris said. It was about 95 miles away from the Louisiana city early Saturday.
The storm was gaining strength early Saturday and inching northward at 5 mph. About 2 a.m. ET, it was 170 miles west-southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi River and had winds of 50 mph, the Hurricane Center reported.
Parts of southern Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama could see 10 to 15 inches of rain by Sunday, with isolated totals of 20 inches, according to the hurricane center.
