They are very handsome! Perhaps you could keep them around and see who is the best candidate as your hens baby daddy?

I figured they were too young, thanks though!
One of them has a comb that is pinker than the others and has a bigger chest and stands up more, the others combs are more orangey.
About how old can the sex be determined?

To tell the truth my blrw are 11-12 weeks and just caught them all to choose keepers/sellers. Until this point when I caught them all it was hard to guess their sex. A few were still though guesses. Give it a few weeks! I bet you have fun speculating!

I am smitten with this breed but I have yet to have luck getting the color I want, I have driven all over looking at then but its hard to find pullets, and the two I have one is black and one is orange and a smokey splash color (which I like as they are just pets) but i really want a nice medium blue/mahogany one

I tried to post this in the hatching eggs classified, but it wouldnt lt me, so I am trying my luck with the breed threads. I hope you all dont mind! and I will say I am sorry that this is all one big paragraph, it doesnt post as it is whenI type!



I am looking for around 24 eggs. I dont want hatchery birds, just breeder birds. These are for myself and my dad to split so that is why the large quanity. We had ordered eggs off of someone on Ebay who said they could fill the order in the next 2 weeks and then they backed out to just one dozen. I hatched 6 a couple weeks ago, out of 14, so we know realistically that a dozen wont get us many chicks to split.

If you would be able to have that many in 2 or 3 weeks, I would appreciate a response. Let me know how many and how much, where they would be coming from and i will pass the information to him (he doesnt use computers!!)

Thank you in advance!

Very pretty!

he is so pretty, pictures don't do him justice. his name is blue, and is about 7 weeks old. i think i need a better name for him though, it's not very creative.

i have a black and a splash pullet to breed with him, i bet he's going to make pretty babes.
