olive egger

I have an Olive Egger hen who has been yawning (as if something is stuck in her throat) regularly for the past few days. Other than the yawning, she was very active, eating well, etc. However, today I saw her sleeping/resting more than normal, and when feeding mealworms she was not as excited...

I had thought this girl was a wellsummer until a couple days ago when she started developing a crest. She is four weeks old today. She came from Meyer so my options are cream legbar, olive egger, or lakeshore egger I think. Any thoughts? She’s one of my bravest and most personable chicks, I...

I have most of my new flock figured out except these two black/copper Olive Eggers - they’re almost 8 weeks Blue Wheaten Ameraucanas over BCM. This is my 12 week old Ollie who I’m quite certain is a pullet. Jazzy and Thorn are the 2 in question. My guess is pullets also. Their combs have...

Hi! I am so happy to be part of this amazing site! I have already learned so much in the past couple of days while reading over a few things. My daughter's second grade class hatched some chicks and we ended up getting the last 3. We have 1 Barred Rock and 2 that are a project the farm (where...

Blurry images of chicks. They wouldn’t stay still and they didn’t like the flash. Oops. Does anyone want to guess as to what any of these chicks breeds are?

Juniper, our Olive Egger, finally laid an egg!! Now we currently have 8 layers and are waiting on the last bird to start.

So I'm completely new to chicken genetics and was looking up how olive egger chickens come to be. I know if you have a marans rooster and a blue egg laying hen like an ameraucana or legbar you can hatch out an olive egger. I was curious what you would get with a blue laced red wyandotte...

Hi, all! I'm new to the forum as a member, finally figured out how to get registered, lol - but have had chooks for almost 10 years. Last year all 5 of my Buff Orps went broody on me and we ended up with 8 chicks hatched. Of the 4 that survived to adulthood, 1 is a rooster (so now we have 2)...

Hiiiii.. I have 2 Olive Eggers aged 8 weeks and I'm uncertain if they are male or female. The lighter brown one has a large pink comb with waddles so I tend to think male and the darker brown one has a short comb with barely anything on its neck so I'm leaning toward female. I've posted pics of...

Hiiii.. I have 2 Olive Eggers aged 8 weeks and I am unsure if they're male or female. I posted pics of each with one being the lighter brown and the other the darker brown. Any help in identifying if their sex is greatly appreciated!

I think I may have gotten this kid's gender figured out but would love some opinions. This chick is almost 8 weeks old and comes from watered down Marans hen parentage with an Olive Egger roo father. The last photo is the sort of cockerel I think it's going to be. -Thank you.

If I crossed a Buff Ameraucana rooster with a Cuckoo Marans hen, would the offspring be sex-linked? If so, any estimate to differences in appearance? It would be interesting to produce a sex-linked olive egger. Thank you for reading!

I have Cream Legbar hens that were breed by golden Cuckoo Maran. I also have Americauna hens bred by a Golden CixkoC Matan. What color will the eggs be?
