    Does anyone else’s SGE have this plumage on the top of their head?

    I have two that have these tufts on the top of their heads. The rest of the flock is the same breed from the same place. Normal or no lol?

    Is my chicken sick?

    I don’t have the experience yet to discern a perfectly healthy chicken from a slightly lazy one, and I’m worried one of my girls is sick. She tends to stay behind in her coop when I let the rest of her flock out to free range for a while, she has been having weird, yellow, foamy poops, eating...

    Would starlight green eggers take baby chicks as their own?

    I’m a brand new chicken owner with my first flock of chickies. I bought 6 SGEs from Tractor Supply, and I think they’re thriving well. I am planning on getting a few of them butchered to make room for some more chickens (per my city’s regulations) and I was wondering: if I introduce new baby...

    My chick is sick and I dont know how to help her.

    I got a 4 starlight green egger from tractor supply about 2 weeks ago. Since then my one chick the smallest of the 4, has been having really liquidy brown poops. It wasn't a lot but enough that I took notice. Recently she also pooped very clear liquid with this little red goey mass in it. And...

    Starlight Green Eggers Progress Pics and Breed Discussion

    I am having trouble finding a lot about Starlight Green Eggers (SGEs) or many pics of them. I come across a few here and there, but I think people including myself are really looking for more about them and want to see pics of what their chicks may look like as adults. For that reason, I'm...

    What in the world is this? You never know what you're going to get at RK!

    I went to Rural King here in Central KY and picked up some chicks, only to find that they were not what I thought I was getting. Does this sound familiar? I need help identifyng all 4 of these babies. I'm actually somewhat pleased as these look so interesting. These first 2 pics are from the...

    Is my starlight chicken a rooster?

    I have three starlight green eggers. Two of my girls have similar coloring and sized combs. My third starlight, Coconut, has white brown splash(?) coloring and a much larger comb. Coconut is also much more likely to square up against the other chickens but overall has a great temperament...

    Starlight green egger roo or pullet

    Here is my 10 week old starlight green Egger from rural king that was supposed to be sexed as a Pullet. I’m having my doubts. I have read that this breed does get their comb and waddles much faster than others. She/he is the Karen or Kevin of my flock😂

    Is my Starlight Green a ROO?

    I have had my baby chicks from Rural King for 13 days now and only JUST realized that the chick who is outgrowing the others by far might be a male. He/she is a Starlight Green Egger, according to the sign, and is at least a third bigger than most of the other chicks. Big, thick legs and a bit...

    Help with genders, please!

    Darcy and Wanda: Starlight green eggers, around 7-8 weeks. Darcy might be questionable? Phoebe: Unsure on breed, around 4-5 weeks - possibly Easter egger? The lady said she had ameraucanas and Wyandottes and some mixes, so I’m guessing Phoebe is a mix… I’ve read about the triple comb meaning...

    Possible Prairie Bluebell and Starlight Green Egger Hens?

    Purchased one prairie blue bell pullet (black) and one starlight green egger pullet (white and orange) from Tractor Supply who got them from Hoover Hatcheries. Are these actually PBB and SGE pullets? I think they're around 4 wks old, not sure how long they were in the store before I purchased...

    What kind of chicken breeds do I have?

    Ok, I know some are starlight green eggers, the white are amber links. So we have sapphire gems and prairie bluebell- but how do I tell them apart? Also the one with the number 1 and a circle around it what is that breed? And the black ones with white… they were almost completely black except...

    6 week old Prairie Bluebell Egger and Starlight Green Egger chicks

    Good Afternoon! Backstory: I got a group of 15 chicks of various breeds this year. 12 of my 15 pullet-sexed chicks turned out to be roosters. When I contacted Hoovers, who supplies chicks to the store, they were quick to apologize and send new chicks of my choice. That would *definitely* be...
