Awesome! Thanks for the info. At what age do you add the dairy to their diet? Is regular milk or buttermilk ok to use in lieu of Goat's milk? I look forward to the pictures. I have mine on 20% protein right now, should I put them on the 23%? I'm pretty sure I have 4 cockerels and 6 pullets, so I guess the bent toe will be dinner at some point. She's on the small side anyway. I'm thinking of keeping 4 pullets and trying to decide if I should just keep 1 roo or 2.I would not keep any birds with crooked toes to breed. i have two growing out with crooked toes that will be butchered..1 girl 1 boy.
The blue comes with age...some appear darker earlier.
The roosters appear quicker with combs and waddles.
Ill take some photos of my grow out for you.
Right now they are on high protein crumbles, tons of greens we put in their pen everyday and fresh goats milk soaked scratch. Plus from time to time leftovers..although my usual leftovers go to my laying hens
