Okay, I'll tell you what I think they are and you can give me an idea on what you think. Looking them over today and taking pics, I'm not real thrilled with how they've changed/turned out. I think I'm going to be downsizing even more and maybe bringing a few better quality ones in for breeders if I can find them. I am super picky, I know this.
I thought this was a girl, but it's got absolutely funky stuff going on in its crest and it's comb and wattles are getting bigger. A tiny bit of red at the wattle area.
It was my favorite. I think it'll be a gorgeous rooster if it gets that funky hair thing sorted out.
I think girl. Not thrilled with the quality at all.
Pretty positive this is a boy. I am hoping it fills in more b/c it looks puny to me right now in terms of fluff and silkieness. (Yes, I made that word up.
)
Blue silkie...I know cochins have the dark top and lighter on bottom when blue, but I thought silkies were not supposed to have. I believe this is a girl.
Pullet, I believe. Pretty, good fluff, good form, but black color is not even.
Pullet, I believe. Same issues as above.
This is definitely a roo and will not be staying here for sure. Has silver in the hackles and splotchy color.
So...any worth keeping? I kind of "put all of my eggs in one basket" and this is all that I have left for chickens. I want the best that I can buy and I am picky and I want to be happy. *sigh* I need to figure out which to keep, which to part with and a breeder to buy a few nice ones from.
Thanks in advance for input.
