    Introduction and Question

    I have 3 Cubalaya that I have raised from 2 days old. They are about 11 weeks old. They are black breasted reds. I have no idea if they are hens or cocks. Does anyone have a picture of a full grown hen? They have no spurs growing but I read there are some that don't have them. I want hens not...
