No problem. I like to show her off. She's a pretty hen...and it makes her look unique. :) She has a tiny little nub of a comb at the front but that's it. lol
Hi. Good question because it's not there. Her comb was either pecked off or scraped off accidentally by the broody hen on day three. Not sure what happened. But she never showed any aggression towards her so I assume it was an accident. My broody is a Blue Orpington and she has HUGE feet...
Thank you. I would love more too. Sadly the last broody didn't hatch the 3 of this cross that I placed under her. They just failed to live around day 12. Darn...would have loved a few more of these beauties walking around. She is very what I call "street smart" pullet. She was raised alone so...
Hi. I wish I could offer advice but I'm fairly new to chickens and this was my first broody hatch. Maybe someone else on the forum can verify the info you want on the red sex links. Good luck. :)
You are welcome! :) When she hatched I searched for info on Buff Orpington/Barred Rock sex link chicks and there wasn't much info or actual pics of chicks from this pairing. I was really happy I got a pullet. This was a first time hatch for me and my hen. She really is a pretty girl.
This pullet is from a Buff Orpington rooster and a Barred rock hen. She was brown with a orangy coloured face at hatch. I believe if the chick had been a cockerel he would have been black with silver. Is this correct? This is my first hatch ever.
