Delaware or ?

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 

A friend has a rooster I'm interested in. I thought this was a Delaware roo the first time I saw a pic of him. But the friend just sent me another pic of him and now I'm not so sure. Admiitedly, it's not a very good quality pic. Any ideas?

Not a Delaware, well unless he was hatched in Delaware which makes him a Delawarian....

I'm not sure, but he looks like a barred mix.

Having an Icelandic in the coop is like having a 2 year old in the house - they are into everything and don't follow the rules.

I have zero chicken willpower.

Yep, bsl roo. Daddy could have been a Dellie, but not pure.

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!
