Just waiting on the pullets to start laying eggs hun!
Then you're the first one for eggs!
They ARE getting closer though!!! I saw red faces, combs and wattles!!
Thank you Katy for illustrating.
Another thing that you can look for, since you don't like the term "hatchery stock" is "production type". This means that the birds have been bred more towards production than towards the standard. They resemble the standard bred birds, but are no contest...
Quote:
Breeder should only be used to define a person who is working at restoring a breed or preserving a breed to the original standard. OR...at the very least have a purposeful breeding program.
Whether from the person you bought them from or not, it looks hatchery quality.
