Pretty funny...
I said "I want a white rooster."
He said "get that yella one, he's a boy...
I was like "cool man, any chance it's a Leghorn?"
Guy says "all our white ones are Leghorns."
.......so I have a HUGE FEMALE named after my alias here on the site..."Foghorn" is now "Foggy Foggette"...
Dear BYC,
I have succsefully avoided the costly need for an app and now, myself and others have guided fellow members in the same direction. This thread has now derailed into an apple vs droid thread...(Go 'droid!)
You are welcome... BAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAaaaaaa
I love my chickens like the Dickens
Now that I've got me some I'm smitten.
I even pet on one like a kitten
By the "chicken bug"...been bitten.
Chicken TV when I'm sittin',
And in my dreams...guess what I'm gettin'?
Stinkin' eaten by a chicken-
Thinkin' that I'm "finger lickin'!!!!
My wife is...
Awesome thread!!!!
There's nothing inhumane about it. Happy, healthy birds...and the girls get to do the choosing. Seems like folks would see it as being respectful to the rest of the flock, male or female, including the younger chickens.
They WERE out of the bin! At the time, they were the only unique looking ones outta the whole lot that day. I realize that although from the same bin, the likelyhood of anyone @ the store knowing anything about any particular chicks parents is probably zero.

I thought Lacey had too much curl going on and have suspected his behavior to be a tad more masculine than most of the flock. I had no idea that the comb itself would id him as a male, though. Laceys has rows but Pencil has a smooth one with a bump behind it.
My questions arise from not...
They are suppossdly siblings...obviously EE, but where are the colors, combs, and beards coming from? I present you with "Lacey" and "Pencil". What say ye?

No more supply stores for me! Geez! Every time I'm pretty sure I've FINALLY figured out what my flock actually consist of...I find out I'm still in chicken kindergarten. :)
