Chicks I got at the Oregon Fall Poultry Swap!

I really dont think she's a roo. I did when she was younger, but her comb is the same as Evie's. My friend has an orp from the swap as well, same age as Raptor and he's definitely a roo and started showing it 5-6 weeks old. I'm pretty sure I would know by now of raptor was a roo, she's 10 weeks old. I guess it just be that photo because in real life she has no hackle feathers at all. I love her she's a total fluff-ball, perfect for cuddling

I wasnt looking at her hackle feathers. pics are deceiving. I have BBS english orpingtons. nice birds. my splash roo looked exactly like that only bigger at the same age. one of my blue pullets has longer pointy saddle feathers but she is a pullet. so just wondered if you had a side view. no skin off my nose. enjoy your birds

Sorry, I thought you said hackle feathers, my bad. Sorry if I sounded snappy

I really wish I knew what their parents looked like, I would like to show Evie if she turns out to be SQ
Here is a side view, not a very good one, but the only one I have (my camera sucks

) and it makes Evie's legs look like 'ittle sticks

oh better picture, feathers are more blunt in this one, pullet. I only answered because it is posted in what breed or gender. do you remember who you got them from?
