I hatched "Shaq" from eggs I got from SPeckledhen last year. I love Shaq (aptly named for BIG feet). As "Shaq" grew , the color remained dark so I thought, well ok, I have a nice Hen with a weird name and big Feet.
Here is a pic of "Shaq" in January, typical Barred Rock Hen
I discussed things with Speckledhen and there was a time when we thought "Shaq" might be a Cockerel, then we "settled" on Pullet.
The other day, someone came and bought 3 extra pair of Barred Rocks from me, they were in the pen with "shaq", it was cloudy and rainy I gathered the pairs and glanced at "Shaq" I swear I thought I saw saddle feathers coming in.
I pm'd Speckledhen and took pics later that day.
New pics from Monday:
No Crow or egg that I have seen! So for now, I have either a Pullet with Saddle feathers or a really dark cockerel.
"Shaq" will now be known as "RuPaul"
The Saga continues
"Insert Twilight Zone music here"
