Modern Bantams anyone? - Page 8

Ah...well pooey!

I think I will take some photos of my chicks today. I'm hoping both are females. I know the black is for sure a female, the blue...could go either way.

Probably have them standing next to the Langshan chicks for fun!

And presenting!!!





A hint: The Langshan's on the left:






Is it just me, or the little black one...is there some sort of brown stuff going on in her wing feathers?

Forgive me for my ignorance of this breed, but what does that mean? Will she be copper/black all over?

I love modern games. I have a breeding pair of Birchen and I have 3 chicks all from the birchen roo but there was an oegb hen in the coop with them so they could be mixes. They where hatched early last year and Chief needs to be dubbed. I'm hoping to add some blues latter this year.

The pair

I love crowwings, I have lemon blues and silver blues in the moderns...adding a silver blue cockerel to the pen tomorrow

Nice looking birds! I hope I get a Lemon Blue rooster like that from my chicks this year.

thanks, these little baby raptors do seem to grow on a person...

This is my first time with Modern Bantams and was just wondering how fast they mature. My two are now three weeks old and they still have very tiny combs. Can I assume they are pullets or are they slower to show if they are boys/girls? They are feathering out nicely and I believe I have a self blue and a black. Will get pics if that would help.
