That's a pretty bird, but I'll tell you what little I see from what I have learned from Don. Her back is short, tail is high. The chicks you just got will be better in those areas. She looks to have good foot feathering, and not a lot of color. I think my hens will end up looking like that, but longer backs and hopefully lower tail sets. She also looks like a heavy bird, and I'm not sure if that is good or bad. Seems like she is a little short in the leg to be that heavy, but I really don't know. I'm really just prompting Don to correct meGood morning Don, I hope I have some pullets out of 6 Blue Copper and 9 Black Copper chicks. I guess I have the one nice BCM hen that I can use if I end up with 15 roosters! I am not sure I want to use her. When she was younger she had some copper showing at the tips of some feathers. What do you think would you not use her? I have added a picture of what I am talking about. She is just now laying and shows none of this now. This picture isn't her but one from same batch.
