Jeremy,

Here are some pics of Lemon Drop and Cosette. These are taken indoors with a flash but I can take some outside tomorrow if you want me to. Lemon Drop was a little freaked out about the blue board so he kept his tail tucked in for most of the time. Cosette on the other hand is quite a diva and seems to like posing for pics. She runs right for the camera! Her breast is still creamy colored. Am I right in assuming that she is a she?

Your birds make the nicest babies! We LOVE these two birds!

Lemon Drop - 7 weeks old, I think

Cosette - 5-5/12 weeks old (?)

Debi, they're both quite cute!

Cosette is definitely a pullet. Will you open her wing feathers and see what color she is, Wheaten, Blue Wheaten or Splash Wheaten?

Also, do they have beards??? It looks like they both have pin feathers coming in around their faces, they both did have beards/muffs as chicks if I remember right.

awwww I love babies. He's sooo cute!

Maybe I'll have something for you some day soon to make you feel better.

I'll be driving through on my way to Pittsburg. My daughter is having my grand daughter's birhtday party at her friend's house. She's in an apartment since she gave up on the fiance. LOL

Party starts at 5:30, so trying to figure out what time I'll be through Brentwood. I may actually go back to my daughter's and spend the night, but it will probably be late.

The party is a casino party and the kids are trading chips for prizes. Yeah I think I'll end up staying the night. LOL

Went out back this afternoon and I think I have the wrong birds. I had birds on my back, shoulders, head! They think they're parrots. Was so funny, they flew up on all 3 of us. They get right up in your face and look at you as if to ask what great treat you've brought them.

Yeah.........................all those crazy blue probable roos. I can't get a break. I either have all hens or all roos. Been running into this problem since last year. I do think I have a lav roo though! Yeppie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wheaten Pullet

Wheaten Cockerel? (this one was the same as the others til a few weeks ago)
If those are indeed boys.... let me know if you want them, before June if possible!

*sigh* what do the pullets look like at this age? I was hoping the long tail was telling me it was a girl.

I'll take pics if I get a chance tomorrow. I have two. Wish I had ordered more.
