Honestly, the biggest sellers right now are I think Marans.
Everyone wants super dark eggs.
People want blue egg layers too, but most don't care if they get easter eggers or Ameraucanas.
Strange too.... I thought that I would be able to sell super cute pure bred bantams... not a single...
That one close up of a pullet shows a pretty red face.... Makes me think she is getting close to laying.
But, most pullets start to lay at 20 to 22 weeks.
Those are some great chicken expressions that you captured! :D
And don't get bummed about them not being to standard. It is VERY difficult, as in close to impossible, to find Spitzhauben that are close to standard. They are definitely a breed that is a work in progress.
