She's beautiful...look at that sweet face!

Still don't see hackle and saddle feathers. I now am pretty certain it's a boy just from color even though it's been a mixed bag on this particular crossing. Looks too close to a rooster now. Guess it's a wait and see.

My Easter eggers are six months old now and I STILL have my doubts. They’re also freeloading.

Hopefully it's a girl!

I love the color on both of them! The darker one reminds me of my EE Penny!

Those are girls. Boys don't get that coloring.

Boys that would match the wild type color look like the rooster here.

Good morning ! Just got caught up on this thread. Reason #1 I rarely go barefoot in western Washington: SLUGS! Reason #2: more slugs!

Hello!
I live in WA and have an open air coop (see pic) and am wondering how to keep out moisture in the winter. They live in the open part year-round, the closed part is just their nest boxes and a space for the pullets to live in the spring. Any info is GREATLY appreciated!

Build a front on it maybe a wall that can be set off in the summer may have great ventalation but freeze in the process
