I've given up on waiting for the beginnings of a crow and figure I screwed up and it's a pullet.
Easter Egger. Hatched end of March
No eggs. No cocka-doodle-doos

Thoughts?

Yup, girl! Only 5 1/2 months, you still have a wait for eggs. Soon, though!

Hmmm well that is it. I suck a figuring out Boys verses girls.

Al, I think some of these could be Ameraucanas but I'll just call them EE's because I got such a mixed bag. They all have silver/grey legs and I've kept all the 'black' ones. The guy I bought them from calls them Ameraucanas because they are hatched from blue eggs. He's like 100 years old. Some things you argue about and some things you just chalk up to experience.

Tom, I am a bit annoyed. Now that group is rooster-less. I have my 3 month old legbar who is coming along nicely but he has his girls.

My luck the 6 eggs my silkie is sitting on will all be boys.

Shirley is growing out some Guinea fowl so I'll have an alarm system soon enough.
