Just recently started reading this thread and wanted to say hi. frow.gif Looks like there's a few names in here I'm already familiar with. I have 5 week old SLW's and I am really excited about them. I'm not used to chicks that are this friendly and I am loving them.

Setting a trap tonight.

 "Flower" is now relocated! Hope the bugger had no brothers or sisters.

Hi I have 4 dottes & need help on their colors & also Wyandotte personalities I have 3 of them where they like to be petted but when I pick them up sometimes they bite me, not peck, actually bite-mean little suckers! Is that a Wyandotte personality? They are 9 weeks old. I know one pullet is a Golden Lace & I think one roo is a blue lace red but I'm not sure what the other roo that has red feathers but not really laced & the midget dotte-what her color is considered....Thanks for any enlightment100_2222.JPG100_2228.JPG100_2220.JPG100_2317.JPG

Thanks, Donna! They came directly from the Foley's. Our best count is 4 or 5 pullets and the other 6 or 7 are looking very cockerel like. Of course, I'm hoping some of the red combs I see go away.
