Hi, so I bought some assorted blue-egging pullets and ended up with four Ameraucanas, two of witch are cockerels. This pullet is the only one without a beard so I'm assuming she's an Easter Egger. Can anyone confirm this?
So I just learned I had a Speckled Sussex cockerel and not a sex-linked pullet like I thought. So now I'm wondering what breed my dear Daine might be? She's 15-16 weeks young. Picture below:
Hello. My name is Valerie and my husband and I are new to raising chickens. We have 3 lavender Orpingtons and a mystery bird that we received as the meal maker add on from Meyer Hatchery. I absolutely adore her but can’t quite figure out what breed she is. Any help is much appreciated!
My hen is 9 months old. We got a lot of hatching eggs from a friend and didn't know what breeds or mixes we would get. We were able to figure out what the other chickens were, but not this one. I was just curious to find out out what she might be. Her eggs are medium to large. They're usually...

I recently got three new baby chicks at Atwood’s and I don’t know what breeds they and I’m hoping they’re all pullets. I think they’re a Rhode Island Red, a Plymouth Rock, and an Easter Egger. I really hope that one is a Rhode Island Red because I specifically asked for one because they are my...
Hi! I'm vey new to chickening. Only six months and enjoying it! Anyway, I hope you don't find my question silly or stupid.
So yes, what exactly does a "deep body" mean when describing chicken breeds? I've been reading up on various breeds and every now and then, that description comes up. I...
I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what breeds these are. They are 30 weeks old. And unfortunately, they are not laying yet which is quite odd to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Adopted this hen while she was molting. Now that her feathers are in, can anyone help me identify her breed? She is tan and almost a lavender/grey color. Thanks!

The Green Queen is a relatively new variety of Easter Egger that was created by Meyer Hatchery. It is a bird of varying sizes that lays various shades of green eggs. It is usually bearded and muffed, sometimes has feathered legs, and sometimes has five toes. It comes in a huge variety of colors...
hello! we are new to raising chickens. We have had much trouble trying to get eggs because we are confusing the genders of our chickens; whether we bought them from non-truthful people or hatched them ourselves - still no luck. These two (black and black/white) we hatched ourselves, thought they...
We have brown, green, blue, and cream egg layers, but for easter we want white eggs, but don't want to have to buy them. So what is the best white egg layer thats also relatively affordable to buy?

I got these chicks on March 20th. They told me they were Southern Ramblers which doesn't seem to exist. They have 5 toes and dark legs, they are starting to get some light feathering on their legs. I was told they came from the same hatch. The top one(Robin) was jet black and is starting to get...
This is like a game of "Guess The Animal", but with chicken breeds! The rules are:
1. Try to use more common breeds that most people will know. For instance, don't do a White Faced Black Spanish!
2. Only one breed to guess at a time. Once one breed has been guessed then another person can post...
