It was not labeled as a barred rock, but I've had barred rock chicks multiple times in the past, as well as jersey giants and australorps. The chick had all yellow legs and a white spot on top of their head, which is typical of barred rocks, but not JGs or australorps (neither have white spots...
The first week of June, they hatched Monday and I picked them up from the post office Wednesday around 6:15 AM. I marked no substitutions and specifically noted that if the order could not be filled that week I would prefer to delay the order until the correct chicks were available.
7th year having chickens, my 8th brood of chicks, and the 4th I've gotten through the mail. In the past, I've ordered from Cackle, and always had every chick make it through the mail, all sexed correctly, with extras of each breed and never lost a single one to health issues. My cackle birds...
He was hatched late June, he's half easter egger and half saipan junglefowl, very friendly and protective of his siblings, would make a good guard rooster. His father (saipan) is an excellent rooster--an absolute gentleman to his ladies, friendly to humans, gets along with other roos, and...
I mean, if you are interested in taking him, I'd be willing to work something out. This guy needs a home, and I'm willing to put some effort in to getting him to one.
He's pretty sweet, and of the four chicks we hatched this summer, he seems to be the most dominant, including over his half-brother. I think if he got integrated into a flock with other birds around his age, he'd do amazing! His dad is the best rooster I've ever had, super sweet with his ladies...
He's pretty big, around the size of an average jersey giant rooster, I'd guess around 10 or 11 lbs and a little under 2 ft tall. His father was a black jersey giant and his mother is a blue-gene-carrying easter egger, but not straight blue. If you would like, I can post a picture of her so you...
Hello! I've got a easter-egger saipan cross rooster around that age that needs a home, would you be interested in him? He's around 6 weeks now. I'm in Southwest VA, but I'd be happy to drive him to you!
I've got a year-old rooster that is in need of a re-home, he's very sweet to people and gets along great with other roosters, but has been upsetting the flock dynamics and encouraging bullying of some of my older hens and he needs to go :(
We hatched him at-home last summer, so he is...
