Oh you're fine! Hey, the more the merrier. This is a learning process. I've never been on one these groups before...I'm sure I drive people crazy but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. Don't worry about deleting from this thread. It's all good! ;)
They actually have a pretty good variety around here & if you order you can get about anything. However, even with a special order you can end up with other kinds. I had considered ordering from Murray McMurray Hatechery online. They have great reviews.
Yes
Yes, for sure not Ameraucana's. They look nothing like the rest. They are much lighter than my RI Reds so I was hoping for Buff Orpington's since they also had them at feed store...wishful thinking I guess. :)
Thanks for sharing. My RI Reds are dark like this. I've had some bad luck with getting the wrong kind of chicks this year. Do you know of a reputable place to order quality birds in future? Thanks again!
I'm new to raising chickens & my "flock" consists of 8 week old Dominique's. I also purchased 5 Rhode Island Reds & 6 Silver Laced Wyandottes all being around 4 weeks. They have pretty much feathered out & I let them free range with Dominique's during day but the Dominique's chase & peck at...
I think you're the winner @donrae. I looked them up & it looks exactly like her! They say they're typically docile which she is most certainly not. :) Thanks for your help! I feel much better knowing what she is for what ever reason. :)
Thanks for the feedback! I'm not sure what it is, but it's nothing like the rest. Very scared of you & if you catch, it will latch onto you like a snapping turtle. Needless to say...not my fav. :)
I ordered eight Dominique pullets & the one pictured appears darker, different comb & has different body shape...oh & disposition. Please help! Not sure what I have here.
