1 Rooster and 3 Hens....all about 18 months old. Since they have arrived it got cool here and they have started to Moult...they will have to finish that and then get settled in and I'm sure they will begin laying again. As soon as I get this camera thing figured out, I'll post some pics.
MC....yes I ordered from Skyline. Haven't recieved them yet but I'm looking forward to have some color diversity in them and all I have ever read is good things about James and his chicks. I'm excited about those also!!
I know you are right about the cockerels. It's just that my DH gets so attached to the roosters. I'll see how it goes, and maybe he'll be okay if I do it sometime when he isn't home.@ CR - Tell Godzilla to quit picking on Mr. Pinks comb... I see at least two deli sandwiches in that breast of his!
Rehome your cockerels in your tum-tum and let me know if you need help with the hens... I've got a neighbor lady looking for two hens (or pullets) and I'm right where I want to be for the winter. Sold all the pullets I couldn't keep at the big swap.
It's amazing how much the pullets look just like their mommas. Here's a pic of the crew now, you can probably pick which one yours came from. It will be interesting to see if the cross with Mr. Black pulls them down in weight at the same age, or if they hold their type. Your light girl is out of my pullet that went broody.
The recessive white is definitely common in the States birds. I have four right now, all males. He really is a good-looking bird, and he's been pretty friendly. I do hope I can find a place for him, for my DH's sake.CR, love the Godizlla shot as well. He really is stunning, I have never seen the recessive white males before, for some reason haven't seen any white's come through yet with my birds
Congratulations!!!!Have you all seen the comercial from KFC when the guy says...."I ate the bones........I Ate The Bones......I ATE THE BONES" ?????Well I feel kinda like him because..... I've got some EO's....I've Got Some EO's......I'VE GOT SOME EO'S.It probably doesn't matter to most people but I am tickeled to death.
What are the parents of these beautiful roosters?
My beautiful red Basque hen
Now for my two lighter colored females~
Perfect match, no? ; )
Enjoying some time out of the run
My Ducks and Geese were not too sure what to think of these new 'crowers'...
This 'Lemon Crele' boy is going up on Craigslist tomorrow. Also have a white Basque boy that I'm going to try and rehome.
The girls gave me two lovely eggs today. Pretty sure my red 'gal is laying the dark brown eggs.
Enjoy
