look's ok has a nice tail set and a decent chest . look's a little long in the back . find a hen that has a short back and good type and that would be a good start and just cull hard and keep the best . good luck and most of all just enjot them they are great birds !

Not yet. Have get another pen set up first lol. I put the white leghorns in the pen I had the seramas in.

Hey, is 57% humidity ok?

Well, I'm in a dry climate, and I started mine at 45-50%, then bumped it up to 70-75% the last 3 days. I had to watch closely, the last few days, because my ambient humidity is only like 20-30%, so it would drop fast, if I didn't keep the extra sponges wet. You're in a whole different climate than me, so I'd ask folks near you for their advice.

Are you hand turning? or using a auto turner? Fat side up, pointy side down right?

Oh pleeeeeeaze everyone, post more pics! I'm having trouble feeding my new Serama addiction until I can get some of my own!!!!They're seriously crack for chicken lovers!

Sorry if this its a repeat post but didn't see where the first one posted.

Normal ambient humidity in my house is around 45%. Using auto turner for the LF but will probably hand turn the seramas. Yes, fat end up.

It's down to 44% this am, and 99.7. I hope it will just stay that way. Not sure why it would change that much since it's in a closed room.
