Post some pics of them and lets see what they look like. Maybe we can help determine sex.

I'm looking for one or two for a Christmas present to my mom. Her flock got wiped out by a hawk, so for Christmas I am predatorproofing it (which she really needs to love me a lot for during the middle of the winter haha) and getting her a new silkie baby (she has two other mutt-chicken chicks).I am putting Silkie eggs into the hatcher tomorrow evening that, if they survived the temp issue I had with my incubator, are due to hatch this weekend. Hopefully I resolved in time to save at least some of them. If not, maybe the following weekend - I set every Saturday, and I also set eggs to hatch on New Year's Day, so if I have my temp problem fixed in my incubators I should have chicks every weekend. The ones due New Year's Day and the following Saturday were set in a new Brinsea which I bought because of its reputation for being a more reliable incubator. Had I known a year ago what I know now, I would have just saved a few more months and bought a Sportsman cabinet incubator to begin with. Saving for it now. I have hatched many chicks in the styrofoam incubators I have, but should have hatched many more.
We got 3 Cream Legbar eggs yesterday! Must have helped with the warm weather, and now of course it's going to get cold again.
The eggs are pretty small so far, especially compared to sex-link eggs.
When are you planning on ordering them? We would be interested in more runners as well, but are evacuated due to flooding for the time being so our farmette is scattered all around CO. You can PM me if you'd like.
