With AS the tail is giving it away for me. The pullet has that fan shaped, nearly all feathers the same length tail and seems to hold her tail upright most of the time. While the two cockerels tails have the longer feathers with shorter feathers, they hold their tails more parallel to the ground.
Yesterday I drove out to Crystal River and picked up these 8:
Here is Abe and Mary Lincoln, creme? brabanters. Roo is 2 years and hen is 1 1/2 years (she said).
6 new AS chicks @ 4 and 2 weeks old
I am not a purist of breeds so I just have to say that it's nice to see that auction as it may spread the breed around so more. Showing and perfection is not why I like this breed, or any breed. No hard feelings for those of you seeking a textbook perfect bird though.
I came home from work to find Bowie dead. He was fine yesterday. There's not a wound on him, so he must have broke his neck or something. I'm sure glad that I got a few chicks before he died. Thanks again, Jess.
RIP you pretty fella, you.

Nice start on the site. Cool that you already have a shoppe to help generate some money. Love the mixture of languages.
Sure wish I could get ahold of some AS eggs!
