The Olive-Egger thread!

I vote 1 roo and 1 hen

I'd guess both are pullets (will be hens at one year old).

I agree with everybody else, little pullets... and side-note, funny enough those look almost identical to my Speckled Sussex X Salmon Faverolles cross. It must be the puffy cheeks.

I love their cheeks! When they were babies their little chunky cheeks were the cutest.

I put these 5 eggs in 3 weeks ago, my first chick from the little blue egg

my second chick from the other blue egg, and the 2 eggs under the big brown have peeping chicks, the big brown may be a quitter...

I say girls. Do you know what the parents are?

After months of trying to find some olive eggers I have finally got some! They are surprisingly scarce in the UK. A week ago today we brought home three new pullets! They are welsumer x cream legbar - they look just like a wellie with a head tuft! They have THE most orange legs I have ever seen! I couldn't be more pleased with them. Can't wait for their first eggs!!!

Oh, I forgot to mention my new olive egger chick hatched by our broody hen. Fingers crossed for a girl! He/she is a marans x legbar.

4/5 eggs hatched here is day 2 for them...
