I hope it's not the bloom. Because if you are wiping and scrapping them off that's not good. I get them from one of my BRs. Th egg also feels maybe a tad more chalky than should be. But they are eggs and we eat them and have no problems.
Haha 50% is huge. And it was my very first time having my own chickens. It still cracks me up that I ended up with 3 and 3. And I have been saying it the while time cause even as chicks they paired up one light one dark. They always knew. Lol. But they all have good dispositions so I'm hoping to...
I guess either way I'm happy I bought them. I truly do love them. And they seem happy. Now when I go in for feed it's hard to not want to buy all the chickens. Mostly because some of the conditions. But I suppose it would be hard to handle that many at once and always keep them clean.
So a little update. Lol 1 of my 3 roos are crowing.3 that were supposed to be pullets.6 all together. So never trust sexed barred rock pullets from orchlens. Cause 50% wrong is bad. Lol however I love them and I am hooked on always having chickens. They are happy and has been no fighting thus...
If they all got along yep I'd sure keep em. As I know they will be handsome roos. We would like to make our own new flocks too. No one has crowed at all yet. And they also hear a roo down the road crow all day lol. They run to me sit on me and they pair up at night. One light one and one dark one.
No one has ever puffed uo at me yet. The two that do that to each other haven't fought yet just staring. They usually part ways pretty quick and peacefully. However I know it won't stay that way older they get. So you would recommend the one who stays out of it?
Well I appreciate any advice on how to choose a roo to keep. I love them all. Now only 2 stare each other down most the time. One kinda stays out of it. But each has paired itself with a darker one(hen). But any advice is welcome.
Awe man. Well it did say sex link on the crate but then again it was orchlens. I read they go off coloring with barred rocks. It would make since though because the only ones who fight and dance around are the light ones. So if I have 3 how do I choose the roo to keep?
