My FBCM X EE Olive Egger Hens are not liking the 105 temps we had today and tomorrow will be as hot.

Poor things. The others are handling the heat better--Especially the Spanish Breeds. They are Ultra heat hardy and heat hardy.
 
These are my two little OE's from my recent hatch, they are six weeks old now. They are a Marans roo over a F1 OE (Marans over Blue EE), and I got one roo and one pullet. I sure hope the pullet is carrying the blue gene, hoping for some pretty olive eggs!

roo, Bobby, is looking mostly Marans right now, and is feathering so slow! He barely has half of his feathers in.


pullet, Brooke, has the softest feathers, and is a sweet bird so far.

The Cockerel does not seem to have peas in the comb. He likely does not have a blue egg shell gene.

The Pullet does have a Pea comb? She likely has the blue egg shell gene.

Very nice!
