I think the tailed one is a cockerel, but that lovely tufted rumpless one is a girl! Congrats!

I think the tailed one is a cockerel, but that lovely tufted rumpless one is a girl! Congrats!

That would be my thinking too.

 

[chickenlover89]

That would be my thinking too.

I posted these on another thread but thought Debi might like to see them here since they came from her eggs. They all turned out with such cool colors! I can't seem to get them placed with people I know and I care enough about them that I don't want to just put an ad on Craigslist so it looks like they'll be staying. The White/Gray/Buff Splash colored one turned out way cool looking. They're 3 1/2 mo old now. (The one in front is a Brown Red Bantam Ameraucana).

Wow, that is cool. Interesting color.

Ksane I may be in your boat soon w/ Ara if she doesn't cooperate w/ the she program and insists on being a boy.

It sucks, but craigslisting them is sometimes the only way to get them placed. You never know, they could find a great home for them! Earlier this year I sold a mature rooster for $20. He was going to be the king of the barnyard, hah. The gentleman who bought him was very pleased to have a purebred Araucana.

Ksane, what color am I seeing around the neck area on the red/buff roo.
