The thing that keeps haunting me is IS Poppycock a cock?

Red paint

[/quotei am still 40 pages back on this thead. But I have some "whites" that i got off ebay. They were the gold color at hatch. Then pure white. Both are getting this red spotting. Could i ha e some paint in them? Thank you.

I have some head shots here of PoppyCock. Can anyone give me their opinion if this is a poppy or a PoppyCock? He is 18 weeks old.

Pretty Paint! Can you take a photo of it's comb and post it?

 

[Fuzzybird]

I will try but can tell you that its not round or large but rather long, flat, with ridges. I know what a hen comb looks like and that is the way it looks. Wouldn't a young cock show a more walnut shape at 18 weeks?

I dont know if many are still following this thread but I am in need of some hatching eggs. My hen just decided 100 degree heat is the time to sit. Lol. I am looking for anyone in Ohio that has eggs from good quality parents. I will take paint, black, blue, splash, and or white. I know this isnt the bst thread but I am having no luck finding any in ohio. Thanks for your help or sending me to someone in ohio with bq or sq lines.

I just scrambled up 2 dozen for breakfast, I'm in maine if you want some, they would be paint over black and splash hens.

I have not had luck with shipped eggs. Especially when its 100 degrees here.
