What are the chances that a hen is laying her first egg at 10 months old?
Backstory - we got this Americana from North 40 in April of last year. She has always been super skittish around us. We have another Americana of the same age that we have been getting eggs out of since August. We NEVER...
Hi everyone,
I’m new to chicks, chickens and chicken keeping. I bought 10 Red Production chicks last Friday from a place close to my home. By the following Thursday 4 died and I went back and got replacement chicks, that are now a week behind my current chicks. They are RIR and Americana chicks...
Have a little Americana (Easter Egger, not Amerucana) that has the cutest little green legs/feet!!! 🥰
What kind of chicken would give her green legs?
Just curious, obviously she's a mix from Hoovers, but I'm just curious!
Thanks!
Yes, Americana, as in Easter Egger, from Hoover's, but what might she be mixed with? Or what her color is called?
I know on their site they say a blend of Amerucana and Arucana ?
Thanks for any suggestions.
4 weeks old
Hi y’all! I’m working on starting an olive/ Easter egger project. Would love to see photos of everyone’s blue or green layers and the crosses used create these wonderful birds!!
Definitely most interested in trying to find a balance in variety of physical color as well as egg color.
Purchased 7 pullets labeled as Americanas. As they get older and the more I Google, I'm figuring out more info, but also confused. There are four with what we call a hawk like pattern and three that are mostly a solid color. Leaning towards these being easter Eggers but another thread said...

Hello!
Has anyone ever crossed true Americana black hen with a brown Leghorn rooster? What do the hens and roosters end up looking like? All Easter Egger layers? Hearty?
Thank you for any answers and photos!

Hello was just curious what everyone’s opinion was on my chicks. They are 4 weeks old so I know it is still pretty early to tell if they are roos but they are very aggressive towards each other. We think we might have three roos. Two of them are Rhode Island Reds and the other one is an...
Hiya, so about a week ago now me and my family got some chicks from bomgaars like normal. This americana chick in the pictures, named Piper, started growing in her feathers normally but some are curving weird. The curvy feathers only happens in a certain part of the wing, and on both wings. This...

I'm transitioning from chickens to quail, so looking to sell/trade my flock. 8 healthy birds all about 1.5 years old and laying about an egg a day.
(2) RIR , (1) Australorp, (1) IsaBrown/Australorp mix breed, (1) Americana, (2) Wyandotte, (1) Barred Rock
Make an offer: I can accept cash...
Our americana, Pudding, spat up this weird foggy brown substance today. i went into the coop today to check on a previously injured chicken who miraculously healed suddenly and i had gone to pick Pudding up while in there. i’m holding her on my side and she suddenly just drools out this foggy...
Good morning! I was wondering when did everyone’s girls start to lay? I have two Rhode island reds, two prairie bluebell easter eggers, and two light bramahas that are 16 weeks and I have a buff orpington, white leghorn, and americana easter egger that are 8 weeks. This is my first personal...
Americana egger. Im not EXACTLY sure on the age, best guess is 7 weeks, but I’m not sure whether it’s a pullet or roo. It was supposed to be a pullet but I’m having doubts.
I apologize in advance that these pictures are poor quality. 😝 I tried to take pictures of each chick and it was harder than expected to do by myself. I will create time to do that later. For the purposes of sexing, I'm looking only at my easter eggers (I've also got some buff orps, brahmas and...
I got 4 chicks from the agway on Saturday, they arrived there Thursday, so I'm guessing they are about a week old. I forgot to ask about age and forgot to watch them put the chicks in the box so I'm not sure who is what breed. Rookie mistake! They are supposed to be barnevelder, golden laced...
