Can you tell from this picture if my EE is a Roo

bamarshgu your beautiful boy looks EXACTLY like mine...
I'll try to get a better picture.

I ordered from MPC and I had them sexed. Bantams (which i know is impossible) but they promised!

anyway now I don't know what to do... 8 chickens down to seven and maybe even 6 And here I thought I'd have a flock and an urban farm.

I can get you a pair. I have a blue wheaten pullet and lots of wheaten and blue wheaten cockerels. They have recently been vaccinated for ILT though.

The bird in question on this OP is a rooster.

I'd love

a pair, but I can't afford shipping adults.
We don't keep a large flock so I can't order 25 chicks, although could possibly buy 15 by splitting order with other locals if I find a breeder who can safely ship that few,
Last year I got 2 shipments of eggs but was only able to get breedable Wheatens--not any Blue Wheatens. This year we got 2 shipments of mostly Blue Wheaten eggs, but none hatched. I strongly suspect the problem was caused by us being at approx 6,000 ft. higher altitude than breeder. It is extremely sad for me.
Do you know anyone at a high altitude who sells LF Blue Wheaten hatching eggs?

You mean my bird?

 

[PoultryPedia]

'OP' means Original Poster or Original Post, if I understand correctly. So the chicken'd be yours

 

[pattee]

Yep that hen just turned into a rooster and that rooster just turned in to

Bye Bye

Although there is little to no hope Pattee, I am going to wait for mine to start crowing before I give him away. Just in case

. A lot of people told me to do so.

You know what mine is crowing or trying to now.. but I'm still going to wait! I really want to keep him!
