No I didn't get them as day old chicks, I bought them at 10-12 weeks. Dorothy has always been the darkest, smallest and the most vocal :) It doesn't really matter to me what they are, I am quite attached to all my girls. My husband calls me the chicken whisperer. lol
This is Dorothy. I was told when I got her that she was a RIR. She's much darker than the others and her comb and wattles are still quite small compared to the other girls. She was much smaller than the other girls initially but is now the same size as them.
She is my only girl not laying...
