Don't think its an Australorp.. due to those yellow feet... My Australorps are 13 weeks right now, and only the Cockerels have any waddle or real comb development... the pullets i read don't start to really develop their combs and waddles until a week or so before they're ready to lay...
Thanks! You know, would you believe that I, who takes 5,000 pictures of my girls every day (merely a slight exaggerationShe is gorgeous. I just learned that what was supposed to be a copper marans is a black australorp (somebody put it in the wrong bin), and I'm fine with that. Do you happen to have a picture of your girl around 10-12 weeks of age?
Thanks! You know, would you believe that I, who takes 5,000 pictures of my girls every day (merely a slight exaggeration), would happen to not have any pictures of them at that age? I feel so bad.Anyway, I kind of wish you had been able to get both a BA and a BCM, because both breeds are stunners. Just an excuse to get more chickens, right?
My apologies that I didn't have a picture of her at the specified
age, but here's Addy at about 15 weeks old. I did my best.
She is so adorable! I agree with those who have told you that she's a pullet, since there is nothing that screams cockerel. Yes, Addy does have a big comb and wattles. You should see one of my Barred Rocks....her comb is large enough to easily be a rooster's.Big bird! They seem to have big combs and wattles, even for the girls, no?
This is mine currently...though I cannot decide on a name. I need to figure one out soon. She is entering her 11th week, and because I am not 100% sure she is a pullet (hardly has any tail feathers), I've put off naming her. The folks on this forum say pullet at this point. Of course, that would make me super happy.
