I would be very careful having any standard roo with bantam hens. If they're constantly free ranging or have a giant coop/run then the hens may have plenty of hiding spots but otherwise I woyldnt do it. I had an Americauna Roo with a flock of 10 or so including a couple bantams and it wasn't...

There were some really nice sebrights at the poultry congress in MA this weekend. I like the buffs but there weren't any this year. Not sure who's these are but here's a couple pics

Oh ok that's good:) and yea definitely a good thing to have one if you free range at all. I'm sure he'll be a spunky addition to the flock and probably a good laugh when he matures and tries doing his thing with the standard ladies haha

Definitely a little cockerel. He has the pointed hackle feathers and definite comb, which btw is not even the correct comb type from what it looks. It looks like a singls comb. What are your plans for him? I hope he's just a back yard pet and not a breeder.

Either that or do like I did and buy older pullets. Day old chicks are overrated. I grew tired of the gamble.[/quote That's a good point too

Your not gonna find them sexed that young. I recommend buying at least 5-6 and selling or giving away any that turn out Roos. I've had it hapoen too many times someone comes to me to buy day/week olds and they want 4 hens so they buy 4 straight run even after I recommend buying more. Not about...

You can move to chick finisher. I generally mix 1 bag of pellets to a bag of crumbles for my bantams....

It's ok not dumbness, we all started at some point with no knowledge. When u breed the chicks of them to other sebrights you won't know what your going to get. If you breed silvers to silvers you will always get silvers,, that's what breeding true means. A split carries the genes of 2 colors and...

You will get silver and gold sebrights that will be splits and not breed true

That's some pretty good egg laying. It will definitely slow down but after some time. I wouldn't be surprised if you were to normally get eggs every other day for now and after a year or 2 maybe 2-3 eggs a week...

That is awesome thumper, I've always had a couple sebrights in my flock but never such a large group and of great quality yours look to be:) I parted with a could in the fall but couldn't separate from the one gold that I saved. I hope to get more in the spring. Good luck with your birds!

This is a Sebright thread. Try in a different thread, or check classifieds.

Hello! I have rscsntly Got me a pair of 6-7 month old Gold Sebrights and I'll have to agree with the tude. My rooster is a swwet thing though,he only gets crabby when his girl and I snuggle ;) I need to weigh them but I believe they are under 20 oz. My rooster has a slight be (very little can...

Wellll, the top one-the roo is most definitely a Sebright. The other 2 are definitely NOT sebrights:( Im not sure what the middle is maybe a Speck Sussex bantam but the bottom looks like an OEGB. The Sebright roo looks decent though...

Just has to share a pic I got yesterday....

W Well that's about 28$ each, which is about average. I got some really good golds for 20$EA but I'd say 30$EA is fair...if your trying to sell soon tat would work...if you price 40$-50$ ea then it may be awhile for the right person to see them.... Just some thoughts...as long as you get what...

You can join open or youth. You don't have to be a member of anything to show but if its out of state you need NPIP testing done... It is definitely exciting to be part of a show though. Especially if you have good birds. Even so you still can learn alot and make great connections. I've only...

If your confident that they are SQ, at 4 months old I wouldnt do less than 15$ EACH. They are always in high demand it seems and someone will purchase I'm sure. Make a little $ to cover some feed for them:) If they are pet quality id sell for less like 8-10$EA

Wow the lacing is really nice on the silver hen and the golds, It's hard to see their postures though with the angle of the pics. They definitely have potential!:) Congrats on that find

Your right with about an egg a day IF they are of show stock. That's usually the case. Hatchery(lower quality) usually lay more than that. I had a silver that was laying every other day. The bare stomach could either be because of obvious stress or what I'm thinking is that it's because they...
