Hi there, hope you are enjoying BYC!

Cockerel yes, Delaware NO.

Something breed wise that I'm not super familiar with.. like sex link, star light egger, or other hybrid type.. I THINK.

Lovely flock.

Not Delawares. Are they crosses?

I didn't think they looked quite like Delawares
But almost positive they are both boys

I'm not sure. I got them from Atwoods

Yeah, definitely not a Delaware. Here is my Delaware hen for reference. Although that said males probably look slightly different and I think they usually do have a bit more black on them, mostly in the neck and tail/lower back region, so I suppose it’s possible they just haven’t grown into the color pattern yet and might get more white? Especially being hatchery birds and not bred to standard. BUT I don’t think that is the case here. I think this is something different entirely but what I’m not exactly sure. What were they sold as ?? Or were they not labeled ??

Delaware cockerels. Just poor quality.
