She ships. I've received Buff Barred Bantam Cochins from her from CA to VA and they arrived in perfect condition
Thanks so much. I appreciate both of the critiques I got and am much more encouraged to keep them and breed them. I love the Columbian pattern and it would be a shame to see them disappear. These are the first I've seen "in person" so I think that there may not be many in my area of VA at...
Well, it certainly depends on quality. I bought a rooster that I consider show quality for $200 and his hen for $50 and they are worth what I paid for them (to me).
Thanks for taking the time to critique. Appreciate it. So I think I'll just let them grow a bit and see how they develop. They are pretty young. I'm hoping that the one in the third photo is a pullet. I was told there were two pullets and a cockerel.
Nice looking bunch you have there.
The above is what I've been reading and I don't think that I really want to put in years of effort to get a flock up to snuff. I'm much more interested in the SLWs that I have. I probably shouldn't have bought them. If they were just for layers, I wouldn't mind that they weren't up to standard...
I bought from a local breeder here in VA. I should have asked her where her parent flock came from, as I never buy hatchery birds. I normally get all my parent flocks from the top breeders mentioned on this forum. Example: P Smith and Meredith/Peachick for Ameraucaunas, J Foley for my SLW, etc...
Thanks for the response. I went to this page, http://www.wyandottebreedersofamerica.net/wyandottestandard.htm, and below is what is there in the sop for that page at least for both sexes. Is there a more complete SOP available?
BEAK: Short, well curved.
EYES: Full round, prominent.
EDIT...
I have a nice trio of SLW I got from J Foley. I just picked up this trio of young Columbian Wyandottes over the weekend. They look pretty nice to me. What do you think? I haven't seen many pics of Columbians for comparison.
