Starbirds Chickens

More pics of the chickens! And some of the new eggs we have been getting.

The EE x EEs are laying blue eggs, it seems!
The Silkie x EEs are laying the green eggs.

Haven't caught anyone with the tan eggs yet. But multiples of the colorful eggs has me so happy! Love the variation, and really want to keep those blue and green egg genes.

Yess! I'm already seeing fertilized eggs again, too!
Can't wait for the eggs to get their proper size and to hatch them next year!

Your little one does look really similar! Has that one grown up? If so, what does the plumage look like? If not, I'd love to see an adult update later!

Thank you! I'm quite fond of how they look so far. A Silkie x Easter Egger mix was my original goal, 10 years ago, and now I'm just taking it further! I believe dad of the light one must be Wheaten, since he looked the exact same as a baby.. but ended up looking so different!

The feathers coming in on the light EE chick!

Here’s a better update of Bee (minus some tail feathers and no red face), and a picture of her first egg.
