​

If anyone is looking at trying Kombucha I have a ton of scobies and would gladly share. That's all I ask is you pay shipping.

I'd like to try it. I'm pretty close to you. Do you have PayPal? PM me your details.

I am so flippin' excited!!! I finally got a camera that has a usb cord that is compatible with my computer. You all are in for it now, I can post lots of pics!!!!!!!

Okay, Question # 1 What color do you think Cocoa is? He is changing quickly, but by far my favorite roo from the eggs I hatched of BHep's in Dec. Questions 2, 3,....will be after I do my massive chicken photo shoot with my new camera.

Wow!! He is gorgeous! I am new to seramas, but I would be one proud Momma to one that looks like him! Enjoy!!

My first serama egg, yay! Guessing it's from my oldest pullet, she's 20 weeks and my others are 15 and 16 weeks old. They really do grow up quick.

Turtle looks like a little boy already.

They are very wiggly little dudes!
Turtle was not happy in the end, I kept flashing him in the face while he was trying to take a nap ha!

These three are Turtle








This is the other one




And here's some pix of them both! They are getting so dang big! Turtle still holds his wings funny. The other one holds his wings better and keeps his little tail up.


I like the little bar looking things on the other guys wing tips

I think Turtle is a boy, and the other one a girl. BUT Turtle's comb looked like one of mine at that age that I was sure was a boy, and turned out to be a girl. Most of my boys were clearly boys by 4 weeks with 1 straggler. They very well could both be girls. What do the waddles look like on Turtle? Are they dark pink? That was always a better indicator to me than even the comb.

Can we call that tolbund like they do the East German Polish birds? It translates to "cool color" LOL
Almost to the day, I could tell on mine at 3 weeks. Actually this time around, I was able to see they were roos 3 days early

Quote: Thanks for the compliments on Cocoa! I do love him, and knew I had a pretty boy when that white started popping out, but when the hackles started coming in red I was like, WOW! I can't wait to see the finished product.
Froggie: He was hatched December 6th. Is splash a real color in Seramas?
Guess the color is up in the air? I've been calling him Calico like I think Fuzzybird said? Not sure that's a real Serama color though. I like Cluck-Clucks Tolbundt idea, just might start calling him that (at least it sounds official) LOL!!

That is sooo... AWESOME!! First eggs are the best, the exhilaration never gets old.

It looks like there is a good possibility he is what is known as a spangled in serama colors. It's still too early to know for sure, but that would be my guess. It is sort of a calico color combination. I have a spangled rooster about 1 year old and I think he is beautiful. He has placed reserve in tabletop judging. I have a very young cockeral which I am hoping will turn out to be this color--it's really hard to tell until their older.

So the consensus is boy and girl pair eh? That would be nice, although I still gotta cross my fingers for two girls hehe

Waddles are the fleshy things under the chin right? I don't actually see any of that yet... it's still all fuzzy haha.
