It will take til they are starting to really feather out. Id say 3-5 weeks you will have a good look. The Blues and blacks look so much alike as chicks it makes it hard lol. I lost my only splash roo.... wish I could get another.
Yes, If you have a waiting list for eggs... I want to be put on it! lol. I've got blacks and blues but no silvers. Gorgeous birds. I just love the breed. My birds are so relaxed and flock to me to eat out of my hand every day.
I have blues and blacks but have pretty much come to terms with never getting Silvers. I'm not going to go to Greenfire Farms and get them.... I'm currently just going to get SPR and try to evolve my own large fowl for now until I can score some good hatching eggs. Congrats Tanya!
Here's some of my babies. They are Blue Double Laced Barnevelders and I love them very much. I'm just starting out with them but I hatched and raised most of these myself. Beautiful birds with quirky personalities.
Yeah I have like 4 roosters but this one is my nicest and I have 2 really nice hens. I have one that has awful lacing. I got her as a chick. I think she's either going in the stew pot or going in with my laying hens. I don't want to breed her. I want to get the best lacing possible. I love...
