    Sebrights no eggs yet, 6 of my 20 hens started laying, the sebrights nothing yet. Not sure on their exact age but when i bought them the breeder said "should see eggs in a few weeks". The rooster is doing his job but not seeing any eggs. Also their combs dont appear to be full yet. Im thinking...

    Today i had an older relative (real old) come over to see the Sebright rooster. Instead of having him walk all the way back to the coop in the heat i went back to get the bird. While walking in the coop he crowed at me and i opened his pen and he let me grab him. I could tell he wasnt happy...

    so this bird is offered for sale, his color appears a but dull. Could this be that he is not a pure bred sebright? Now buying a rooster seperate would insure I don't get related birds but shouldn't I look for one who has perfect color? Can someone explain why this one appears dull? Maybe...

    I put an ad on a local FB poultry group and has someone respond with roosters only. I must say the colors do not look as vivid as some of the birds I see here. For example the last picture posted by Sue T. Her birds have vivid color and defination. The rooster someone showed me looks kind of...

    I had a recent poultry swap no Sebrights. I looked at cackle and murry mcmurray both have 15 bird minimum. Last night found some that have 20 bird minimums. I will look at heartland. I think minimum is for shipping and bodyheat purposes
