Hoping these are pullets, or at least one of them, looks doubtful though. Haven't had time to watch them for behavior.

beautiful chickens.

I think they are pullets. the cockerels at that age should already have big wattles.

Hi! Sorry about the late response but this has proven to be an exceptionally busy month for me. I definitely have non-solid NNs, but like the others I only ship hatching eggs, not chicks since I'm also not NPIP certified.

Ok, thank you!!! I will probably just end up getting some chicks locally, even though they are most likely solid color.

That one in the middle eyeing the camera suspiciously, yeah...that's ALL boy. He's gorgeous though.

With NN, IF Breed with EE/Aru/Amer any egg Color laying Breed. . . Will the NN have the colored Egg or will they be Brown ?

Depends on if they inherit the colored egg gene w/ pea combed colored layers,the pea comb and colored egg gene are closely related, so a good early (w/ohaving to wait to pol) indicator

 

[Kassaundra]

if they do inherit they will most likely lay green NOT blue

I've been so swamped, and have lost track of keeping weights and getting photos. But I got some nice shots of Khan today - he's all grown up. Snape was being a butt today, and I warned him that I had a replacement ready to go, so he'd better settle down. I honestly think he understood me...

The S&Gs are shaping up nicely - I'll try to get some weights and photos soon.

with the EE you never know what egg colour they will lay but with any true blue egg layer the first generation of chicks will all be blue/green layers. the second generation will be a surprise, just like any other EE. blue egg gene is dominant so if present the hen will lay blue/green eggs.
