Hello BYC - we are new to the world of chickens, and are raising our first 15 pullets in a large tank right now. Husband is putting finishing touches on palatial coop which will be ready in a day or two.
Quick question about our chicks: We chose a wide variety of breeds that my 11 year old son researched (he is the chicken nut), and two are Buff O's. They were perfect and pale little fluffball chicks, but now, at 5 weeks old or so, they are mostly white with many black accents and a thick row of feathers going down one leg.
My son is wondering if we ended up with Buff Brahmas instead. Or - is this a normal transitional stage of the BUff O?
Thanks - we are loving it so far.
