Well that makes me feel better. I’m going to wait a few more week cause I feel it will be obvious. Can you post pictures of yourse? Mine is just over 4 weeks. How old is yourse?
Thanks. The hatchery only has grey chickens that are sapphire gem and lavender Orpington so it has to be one of them but as long as it’s a hen I’m happy.
Thanks to JedJackson on my other post I have no realized I have a lavender Orpington and the bin was mislabelled. That could also mean the fact that it’s suppose to be a girl might not be valid either. Definitely a few things that make me suspicious but nothing to compare too as it was the only...
The bin said sapphire gem but honestly I don’t care about the breed just wanted a grey hen to add to my flock. Hopefully it’s a hen. I have a black australorp and she is the sweetest and I love maran eggs so I’m up for anything
So I was told this chick was a pullet and that sapphire gem chicks are very easy to sex at hatch because of a spot on their head. My chick did not have a spot but it’s just over 4 weeks and looks suspiciously like a roo with the waddles coming in a bit bigger comb and legs. What does everyone...
Yep I’m guessing they will each look different which is really cool but I was hoping for so many more colors. Time will tell. Need to take pictures of each one individually and tag them so I can take pictures as they grown.
So sounds like I didn’t actually get an ameraucana but an Americana or EE which is fine cause she’s adorable. What I’m wondering is what color will she become. Anyone that had an Americana chick this color shed some light please. Thanks.
