I just remembered last year we got “Easter Eggers” from them that turned out to be Welsummers so I guess I have heard of them mixing up breeds🤦🏼‍♀️ I completely forgot!

She is WAY bigger than all the others, so that would make sense! I’d never heard of them mixing up breeds before, just genders.

We got them at tractor supply, they said they were Buff Orpington Pullets

Is there any chance my buff, popcorn, on the left is not a cockerel? “She’s” my favorite so I’m really hoping she’s a she since we aren’t allowed Roos

I thought so, but I’ve never noticed this before in any of our others! Yes, we are feeding them starter crumbles!

We got some babies at Tractor Supply yesterday, and I noticed ones crop is large. I’m not sure if it’s impacted? Shes a buff Orpington, and I’m not sure how old.

I was so worried when I saw them this evening, she’s my daughter’s favorite!

No I don’t notice any of them squatting

We got them March 1st, I feel like I’ve already been waiting forever lol I’m so excited to get our first one!

I just noticed the saddle feathers on one of our buffs, also 18 weeks. Her comb is the same size as our other ones. Is this one I should keep an eye on too😅 lol

that’s what I’ve found when I googled it too!

That’s what I keep hoping! I check every day for an egg somewhere!

Acts the same! Only thing I’d say that’s different is the comb, and he/she’s smaller than our others (we have buff orpingtons, black sex link, and a blue laced Wyandotte)

Definitely won’t be getting rid of her unless she starts to crow and makes the neighbors mad😂

Unfortunately where we live we can’t have Roos. I’ve been holding out hope since it hasn’t crowed yet.
