I can't believe someone stole her goat!!! That's terrible!
Yes my DD looks almost exactly like me and my granddaughter looks quite a bit like us too. She has her Dad's brown eyes though and she is not as skinny as her Mom and I were at that age. Funny my DGD has my dimples but her mother didn't get them.
I was told that dimples were dominant.
Sorry but yea. The girls don't get those strong black and white markings on their bodies just on their heads and some lighter colored feathers on the neck. The girls bodies stay a dull brownish with some interesting penciling. The girls would blend into the scenery really well if they were out in the wild but the boys get real strong black/white markings.
The wheatons, blue wheatons and silvers are easy to sex very early on. It's those darn black ams that take a while to show their gender! Well from what I've seen the lavenders and whites are also very hard to tell apart for quite a while. He's a cutie though!
Yeah I mean to comment on those dimples. I love dimples!
I was pretty positive this was a roo. I had seen some pics online and was thinking maybe it wan't a Silver, then I saw a beautiful roo and just know that's what he was. Prefect though. I haven't had supplies in years but used to do smithing, So I looked at him yesterday and gave him his name. Sterling! I hope I get pullets out of my order. I figure if I don't I'll go back to hatching eggs. Either way eggs and straight run is a crap shoot. But I think I'll be disillusioned if all the Lavs and Silvers turn out roo, like all those blacks last year.
It looks like I may not make the Stockton show. I'll know what I can afford to do after my machanics let me know what it's going to cost to fix my car. Since I have it up for sale I need to make sure it's in good shape. Wish me luck
cause parts are a pain for this thing. Not to mention labor. Kind of nervouse since they were supposed to call me back with an amount and haven't heard from them. Might mean they are afraid to tell me.
Man I have too many places to go and things to take care of and I really want to make the show. Really bad timing.
