Are these birds SQ?

I really like remus and coronas color. They all look awesome

The Sebright looks good as far as lacing. Could be a little thicker as you go away from the tip of the tail feathers. Her posture could be.. more. She needs to hold her self upright a bit. I really like her!

This is a shame. This seabright hen has wonderful lacing for a hatchery bird, BUT her body is all wrong! She is too long, too thick, and her carriage is way off.

Really too bad

Would do fine locally but I wouldn't put her in any big shows.

What hatchery is she from?

Exactly like mine. My hens are sooo pretty when they challenge each other. They drop their wings and hold up their tail and assume such excellent posture I just wish they would always stand like that, like the roosters. I wish I could get more pics of them with such a posture. I would win all the BYC poultry shows!

Hmm, that's too bad. I take great pride in my little Antoinette, her lacing is perfect. She does have a few problems though.
-the posture, of course
-the beauty of her lacing is dampened by the mud and dirt on the white feathers. The beauty of silver lacing is in the contrast of black and white, and when the white is less pronounced, so is the beauty.
-somewhat less important is that she is the loudest bantam hen I've ever known, and she is not very friendly.


And I got her from Ideal Poultry. They have great sebrights and OEGs, but not so great Dutch (Chanticleer probably has no Dutch blood in him)
 
Your birds may not be the showiest of show birds, but I think that most of them are exceptional for hatchery birds especially as you have such a mixed flock, sometimes you have to order 10 of a type of bird from a hatchery just to get one that looks normal.

Though I am starting to wonder if I made the right decision on which rooster to keep as my present has the worst lacing ever and one that I had had little lacing, but no smutt/peppering. The hen's aren't as bad when it comes the lacing, though 2 of my 3 hens have feather problems. No matter how much protein filled foods I give them, they just don't look as good as my 1 hen. They also have the same DQ's as your hen.
