The white one is an Easter Egger.Hi, thank you everyone for your responses and all the great info!
Some asked for pictures so here are some of our new girls from the day
they came home to our farm. I do have a few more questions:
1. In the second picture with the girls in the transport cage, there is
the small white one, who our kids named Big Bird. Is she an
americanas?
2. Also she (Big Bird) gets picked on very badly and very often. Its
to the point where she get her feathers yanked out regularly and she
spends a lot of time in the coop. She does hang out with the other
two that look like her but are more of a brownish/yellowish color but
even when she is in a group with her friends the other larger chickens
pick on her. Should we be concerned that she is getting picked on like
this? We thought about building a separate coop and yard for her and
her two friends but haven't gone that far yet. The 12 girls currently
have a 10x20 foot fenced yard but they have a temporary coop in the
yard that takes up part of that probably 3x7. We are adding another
10x20 to the yard to give them a 20x20 foot yard and we are building a
permanent coop on the outside of the yard that will be 6x10.
3. Can anyone help with determining which are what breed? We know
which one the Rhode Island Red is...so far we just call her Red.On the
black ones some have copper in their necks and some do not, some have
feathers on their feet and some do not. If I remember right the ones
with feathers on their feet do not have copper on their necks.
Any help with who is what would be great!
Thank you so much for the time everyone has spent reading and
responding, we are so grateful for this place View attachment 2089128View attachment 2089121View attachment 2089121View attachment 2089122View attachment 2089123View attachment 2089124View attachment 2089125View attachment 2089126View attachment 2089127View attachment 2089128
