    He's beautiful. I have no idea what he might be, either. Lol

    Ladies or Gents?

    Do you have a Dominique or cuckoo maran rooster? The two black and white pullets look more like doms or FCM though it could be that they are a mix.

    From "assorted straight run" bin

    Thank yall so much! EverythingDucks, the smallest all brown is a KC. I was really hoping to not have any mallards and hoped beyond hope for a rouen! The swedish is a nice surprise as well! I know they are still downy and it's quite early to tell hen/drake (their voices are still chick-like so no...

    The bigger birds (dappled) are khaki campbell. One drake and two hens.The smaller all brown duckling is also a Campbell. She's beginning to show the same color pattern as the older hens but still could be a drake, though I dont think it's likely. The black swedish is not a bad ID. It very well...

    From "assorted straight run" bin

    I purchased 4 ducklings from the assorted straight run bin at a local feed store and would like to know the breeds of them. I'm certain one is a khaki campbell as I already have 3. I think one is a mallard (black with brown/gold lacing) and one may be a muscovy (black and white). I may be wrong...

    Beautiful roo

    Gah. this has been the most frustrating purchase OF MY LIFE lol! I had a Samsung washing machine that died, was recalled and warranty wasn't covered while still under warranty that I'd rather endure again than this. Haha

    Beautiful roo

    I fight the urge to be peeved on a daily basis. Especially considering many of the "pullets" were Easter Eggers (in fact, all but this guy was EE except 2 silver laced wyandotte pullets that died of mysterious, sudden. deaths shortly after bringing them home and are, to date, the ONLY birds...

    Beautiful roo

    Either way, we are keeping him as a) he's not a jerkhole and b)we are incubating eggs to see what we get in the next generation. He is one of 4 roosters, though so no guarantee he is papa of any of the new hatches but if we decide to put him up in a bachelor pad with a girl or two later on, I'd...

    Beautiful roo

    He is gorgeous. When he was a wee bird, we named "her" Sophia Birdgara (we have actor/actress theme here lol). Now, he's just sophia the non-hen. His crow sounds like a child screaming, though. Very unnerving. Haha

    Beautiful roo

    She has since deleted all of her ads online and our communication method wasn't via phone. 🤦‍ I wish I could still contact her, though as I paid $20 per PULLET.

    Let me try this. I'll try to get better ones tomorrow if this is still unhelpful.

    Beautiful roo

    I purchased this "pullet" back in March. Obviously, he is not a she. But the breeder also stated he was an english lavender wyandotte. I am curious though, if he is rather a red laced blue splash wyandotte. Pic one is of a cockerell I found online and pic 2 is of the roo in question. The breeder...

    Breed Selection for Far North Central Texas

    I haven’t ever used a large hatchery. If I do - I’ll use Murray McMurray but I shop locally at small hatcheries where I can see the farm they are raised at and support local farmers at the same time.
