21 days seems to last forever, doesn't it?

Yes, this is my first batch from my small breeding flock. I'm super excited and ver impatient

I picked up my trio today. It was a little over 200 miles round trip. Unfortunately she didn't want to get rid of any of her younger birds. She had a young rooster that was a lighter color than the 1 I got. This 1 picked on him, she wanted to get rid of it.

Here is 1 of the hens.

Here is the other 1. She has lost some feathers due to molting.

Here is the 1 broody hen I already had. She is all fluffed up and mad me. I opened the door to the hen nest.

I don't know a lot - just what I've read here - but to my untrained eye it looks to me like the roo has a much better tail angle than all the squirrel tails I and so many have to deal with. It also looks like the girls have nice cream and are crested So I think you got a good deal! But what do I know, LOL?!

I swear, my CL pullet's comb GREW today. It was noticeably larger by the end of the day. She turns 16 weeks tomorrow. Perhaps she'll be my first layer!

Nice Trio. Your boy has a bit more color than I'd like but he looks like he may carry cream. His legs are a bit pale but his comb is straight and his tail angle is not too bad at all. He should fill out a bit more as he ages. One of your girls looks to be cream also so if you wanted to go that route it looks highly possible. The other is a bit more golden in tone hackle wise but lighter than your current broody so it's be interesting to see what you get from them.

I had to do a screenshot. No one in my 'real' life will know how much this means to me. I am very happy today. Sorry if I seem boastful to some, just enjoying this moment.

Not boastful at all- it's the fruit of all your labors and the heartache you've gone through this last year!!!! Congrats on the compliment!

 

[KPenley]

CONGRATULATIONS MARIA!!!!!!! Sorry for the caps, but it is truly a celebration moment for you and all you have accomplished in just 2 short years!

Congrats, Maria! You've put in lots of hard work and the compliments are completely deserved.
