My Lavender Ameraucana's just started laying this week, they hatched in early Feb.
They are 8 weeks old!
Wow Cordon Bleu is fabulous! Put up another picture when he's all grown up, I bet he will be stunning!Some pics of my 2 EE's. The Roo is CordonBleu and the other that I am hoping is a pullet is Teriyaki.
IT HAPPENS EVERY NOW AND THEN JUST GIVE THEM TIME SOME CHICKENS RE LATE BLOOMERSI actually like the smaller size of the EE! Speaking of EE's, does anybody else have an EE over 29 weeks old who has not laid eggs yet? Mine has no beard, and her comb is still not very big. Just wondered if it is the type of mixed breed she is from. Wondered if other peoples older non-laying EE's look similar. Here is my non-laying chicken!
This was taken about 3 weeks ago and she is actually a little more red faced than this...,.but she is not squatting or anything! How old is your non-laying EE????
PRETTY GIRLSSome pics of my 2 EE's. The Roo is CordonBleu and the other that I am hoping is a pullet is Teriyaki.
HE IS VERY ROUND LOOKS ADORABLEThank you Simmonsfunnyfrm, I think he is really pretty but I figure I am just partial because he is mine but I have watched him feather out and I love what I see. And, he is soooo sweet.
Here he is as a hatchling, was adorable!
use a cream legbar rooster.I don't know about the Orpingtons. I think they would bring in a more olive/green egg.I was thinking of adding an Araucana rooster to my EEs to improve the egg color & hopefully get some with beards & bunny butts. Will it work or will they get smaller too?
She's finished her molt, so before today's pictures, here is a comparison pic of just before her molt:
