All 3 today :)

Just 2 today, and neither were small and beige! Juin finally broke her daily streak of 46 eggs! :yesss:

I’m so sorry, fuzzi. So sad to lose a little one. But, you tried to help, and that’s all anyone can do. :hugs

Oh no! I hope her chick gets better soon! I don’t know if there’s any science to back this, but I used the slurry in the video below on my day old chicks last year when they arrived and looked like they needed some extra nutrition. It didn’t do them any harm at least, and they all perked up...

Tamar and her little ones are adorable! A mama hen and her chicks is just the sweetest thing. I’m so glad she’s doing well with them!

Still looking like a pullet so far!

All 3 today! Juin just couldn’t help herself :)

1 today, from sweet, dependable Juin. Her 45th in a row! She laid this one much later in the day than her normal time (11am), so maybe tomorrow she’ll put it off until the following morning. I’d be so happy if she got to take even just one day off.

Congrats on getting so many babies to hatch! They’re so cute together with Rahab :love

I agree with @fluffycrow, except I’m uncertain about breed on #4. It looks like it has some copper showing on its chest, and yellow legs rather than the pink legs of an Australorp. I’m wondering if maybe it’s a black sexlink pullet? If I’m imagining the copper it may be a Jersey Giant.

I’d say cockerel. That looks like double barring to me, which comes from males having two barring genes. Females only have one of these genes and are therefore much darker than males. Here is a picture of my Cuckoo Marans pullet at 11 weeks for comparison: Edit: Wanted to say that male...

Yes, that is a rose comb. Are her legs pink or yellow? If yellow, then she is probably a Black Wyandotte. If not, then she may be part Wyandotte or part Dominique, or depending on where you got her, just a barnyard mix and not a cross of two specific breeds. There may be more possibilities...

2 today, from Juin and Juillet. Juillet was trying to lay yesterday, even sung her egg song, but she waited until this morning to lay it. Every time this happens her egg looks two-toned with bloom, like this: Neat, right? :)

2 today, from Juin and ?? (Août, I think…) Edit: Indeed, it was Août’s egg.

Oh no, I’m sorry to hear that! I’d wait a while longer to confirm the RIR’s gender personally, but I think you’re probably right. As for accuracy, it depends on where you bought them from. Most hatcheries guarantee higher accuracy than that, otherwise they could only sell straight run, but if...

All 3 again :)

3 today!

Hmm… I think I switch my vote to male, sorry for getting your hopes up! I didn’t see any pointy saddle feathers, but there may be some hackle feathers developing upon further inspection.

Looks like a pullet to me :)

I’m so glad Chip is doing better! I’ll keep praying for her quick recovery, so she can get back to her flock soon ❤️
