Hi all! I had a sort of hard time finding this thread on the new set up...but I did! Haven't left yet for Florida (Wynette you can come visit...we will be in Hudson)...but think all will be fine with my flock and flock sitter! I look forward to the winter break although here in N. Michigan...

Quote: Wynette!! I didn't know you had a pole barn built!! Wow...that set up will be fantastic! Lucky you! I wanted to say that your one splash is laying....very nice sized eggs!! My flock is doing well and I will leave in 3 1/2 weeks for Florida. I have my RV coop all ready to go to a...

I think that roo is magnificient!! Lovely flock.

Quote: Check with Wynette on ByC!

My Jerseys are a little over 5 months and haven't started laying yet...but then my Orpingtons are a little over 6 months and haven't started laying either.....sigh.....

Way to go Wynette!!! It is just AWESOME that your Jersey's did so good!! HUGS!

Quote: That is so helpful (your picture chicken/analysis) Wynette. Shows us what to look for like a coach! Thanks for the input! Linda

Soaring chicks your Jersey's are lovely!!!

Quote: Mine hasn't crowed yet either! He is younger than yours...I think he is almost 5 months now...would have to check records. I thought maybe the Orpington rooster (older by 3 weeks) intimidated him. I wonder if our girls will be later laying eggs also? I thought I asked Wynette that...

Quote: It IS helpful. Wish you had a picture but I will examine my flock closely to look....it sounds like you have to actually handle it to find if a point or a sprig. Thanks for sharing and I'm sorry you had to get rid of your splash.

Quote: Too bad about the rain cancellation Soaring! If I read right...you got to talk to a judge and the judge said your splash had an extra comb point and that it should be culled if you want to be a breeder??

Good luck Soaring chicks!! In the bathing department and in scoring high with your Jersey!! Take pictures!!!

Hi Maria! I have noticed the yellow/willow color going up the legs of my splashes so that is good to know! The one picture posted earlier almost looked like there was a hole in the wattle?? I can't imagine it being born that way...it would seem more likely it got wounded/damaged somehow to me.

Quote: He is very pretty Chic!! Love the color and feather edging. I THINK roo....so that is my vote. Where did you get him from?? Indigoegg? Pride and Joy? Wynette?

Wynette they are beautiful!! I have a feeling an egg order will be due next spring!

This is the best I could do as far as pictures. I have narrowed down my choices to these two roo's. One has better defined edging on feathers...a longer straighter back...the other has darker color blue with a broader chest and tail flipped up more. I have to study their legs better but I...

Hope your hubby does great on his should surgery ChickwannaB. I'll say a prayer for him. My brother in law just had surgery on his shoulder yesterday in Colorado. (torn rotator cuff). He did great...so did the surgeon.

Quote: ChickwannaB....we are spoiled by the "Michigan thread". Not all threads are that active! I just am too inexperienced to be able to help you out ....I think they look fine but really haven't studied the type enough to know much. I think this thread counts of Wynette to help us out and...

Quote: Too bad about your hen dying....maybe the heat?? I have Wynette's also and they are beautiful aren't they? Did you get any from Maria Hall?? I got some from her also and hers have yellow feet (not legs just bottom of feet).

Quote: That gives me hope, theoldchick!! I had just decided mine is a pullet, but Wynette and Fifelakelooper burst my bubble. That manly JG Hen is just AWESOME! Just "guesses" Chic...and who would have picked the old chick's pullet as a pullet?? That is why I'm trying to wait at least...
