Delawares are beautiful,and I could use another Rhode Island Red so Scarlet won't feel alone...How old will they be?

Unfortunately I haven't tried my hand at hactching yet,and I'm afraid of what my success rate would be,so I'm thinking it might be good to wait awhile on that.
Thank you sooooo much for replying though!!!!

Just hatched. If we get a good hatching I can spare a couple. I will let you know when I pick them up. If you are still interested pm me in a week or so

Absolutely! You gotta start somewhere, lol!
The fertility is awesome with these. I had 6 out of 6 ss eggs hatch under a broody, and I have 6 more in the incubator and 5 are developing, one is clear.
These are not hatchery stock either, my original stock came from a breeder in GA.

Is it Garry farms? Speckled Sussex need a lot of help. There is a thread on how to improve them. Here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=429217
