Haha @Gramma Chick, thanks for sharing!

No doubt. My BA cockerel is turning out to be so pretty but I've got nowhere to put him while he grows up. Lol I already have an excellent rooster anyhow.

HAHAHA! ;-) Can't wait :)

Oh, I didn't know it was your first! Awesome! Our first here should be within a month :)

My two BAs are the most chatty, one because it's a boy practicing how to crow :-/ not sure about the other yet.

I thought pink or gray/white was normal. No yellow.

oh my word! Too funny! :)

Goodness! I'm thankful at least mine have been healthy and the BR I bought from the same person seem to be right.

@Gramma Chick I got them at 8 weeks old from someone that had two pullets and two cockerals for sale, supposedly. The two cockerals were obvious then so we thought for awhile we had girls. *sigh*

I got some better photos. If anyone would like to help me figure out what my 12 week olds are, I started a thread here https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/895639/black-australorp-sexing-help-please Thanks! :)

I spy....hackle feathers! Daggone. On just one though, the one that doesn't have sickle looking tail feathers. Go figure.

Lol Too funny. Well, whether they are or aren't, chances are I'll hear it eventually. I just came from a swap where we bought 7 more chicks! But I do hope at least one of my BAs is a pullet.

I got my camera back out, so I can use zoom and stop freaking them out with the noise my phone camera makes. Maybe I'll get better pictures. I want some good ones just to have anyhow. Thanks btw!

That's what I had figured and I thought would be the best way to do it. I got lucky in that these two farms are neighbors and friends with lots of traveling between them, so I didn't have to worry about mixing them up. I don't look forward to integrating new ones, though I agree that mixing...

When I brought mine home I mixed 5 week olds, 8 week olds, and a 1 1/2 year old rooster and they all did great. Maybe I got lucky, but they all rode home together from two neighboring farms and we never had a problem.

I agree. Those are an absolute joy to see.

Darn! Lol I keep listening for little crows. One even acts like a teenage boy :-/

Thank you so much!!! :)

you know, I'd forgotten about the placement on the head. I'll have to pay attention to that. Does it mean anything when the comb looks more serrated? Thanks!

Thanks! :)
