    Frizzle Roo or hen

    Other than the comb and waddles the feathers look the same. I did not freak out so much about those as my leghorn and Jersey giant had the same amount at 3.5 mo. The neck feathers are all short, and I don't see any really long tail feathers either. I'm praying it's a girl, sooo cute. I don't...

    Silkie thread!
