Update!!! 11 weeks 4 days. Jack crowed!!!!! Maui (Bertha) towers over Jack so I wonder how that is going to go. I’ll let y’all know when Maui crows
Jack
Maui (formerly Bertha) in the front
Ok seems I was wrong. It wasn’t Jeckle but Bertha!!! So Here are pictures of my 3 JG
First up: Jack
next is “Bertha” may need to change the name though lol
last is Bessie
Here’s hoping for at least one hen lol. I can deal with 2 Roos with my flock of soon to be 20 hens
4 days later (6 weeks 6 days old) both Jack and Jeckles waddles have dropped on in for an appearance. So maybe 2 cockerels?
both of them under the water safety of the pool lol.
Jack
Jeckle
none of the ladies have waddles yet. They all have combs that are yellowish
Maybe both of these may be Roos? Guess we’ll find out when/if they crow. In the meantime I’ll just enjoy the view. Thanks to everyone who’s been following and commenting.
Jack
Jeckle
Well they have officially been moved to the outdoor baby coop. The original flock seems to be curious about them. And Jack even seems to like the older ladies too.
6 weeks 1 day update.
y’all remember my original post where I though the very front black one (not a JG) might be a cockerel? Well here is a picture of Jack (JG) and of Jeckle (not JG) and then just some chick fun shots lol
Jack
Jeckle
fun shots cause they’re nosy
My calico princess “Elsa”...
Ok Jacks waddles are coming in. But here’s a picture of all 3 JGs 5 weeks 3 daysWhen do y’all think I should start putting them outside? Here’s our weather for the next 15 days also. Thanks!!
So weeklyish update. 4 weeks 1 day to be exact. All 3 JG are in this picture. I’m pretty sure Roo in the back. 2nd picture is up close if possible Roo they are all nosey and love when I take pictures lol
Not that I can tell yet. They are only 3 weeks lol. It I have a calico princess that has some little nubs coming out of both legs where those extra claw things for a roo would be but only time will tell. I’ll keep posting updates weekly to see what the JGs and the black one turns into :)
So an update to the 2 JG possible cockerels. The one on the right seems to be showing more promise. Comb is starting to pink up and the left is still yellowish. First picture is both.
right one
Left one
What do y’all think. They are 3 weeks 1 day as of this post
Here aremy coops. Very front one is for the pulleys and cockerels until they can join the flock when old enough. Second 2 are joined together and the chickens can run through both
i dont care which of the jersey giants is a male as long as there is one lol. as for the black one in the front, i got that one as part of an "egg production pack" and the only option it could be from the list of possible chickens they named is the black leghorn or black sex link. but their...
My chicks are about 2 weeks 5 days as of this post. I was wondering if it’s too early to tell if they are Roos our hens. I had 4 jersey Giants one is supposed to be male and the rest females. One of them died within the first 24 hours after shipment and I’m hoping it wasn’t my roo. I got 16...
