Hey guys, I was just reading on Feathersite and I saw a pic of a BLRW chick and another right next to it.It was labeled, cockerel on the left( a dark one) and pullet on the right? They aren't sexlinked right?

I have an auction going through tomorrow night on the BST area for 14+ eggs from my BLRW pen. I have one well laced hen that has a sc but the others are all rc. I could not justify getting rid of a nice girl because of the sc so I kept her. I care more about temperament and beauty than what a comb looks like since I do not show. They lay well and are super birds. Real pets! My neighbors and friends love to come over and admire them and feed them from their hands. With over 400 birds here, it is nice to have ones that people love to visit!

Yeah, I am down from the 700 that I had last summer. It like to have killed me to try and get everyone watered every day and keep the containers clean. I had to cut back or kill myself with the care of them all. Automatic feeders and waterers do not help much when you do not touch the birds. Mine get handled often to ensure parasite control and decent weight. Not to mention weeding out any with bad temperaments or breeding flaws as they mature.
Thank you for the compliment.
