Everyone is picking on her

[WVduckchick]

I have golden sebrights, and while you have some beautiful birds, I don't see a single female in the bunch! (I could be missing them, though)

Female (this was taken around 9 months old)


male front and center, females in the back

Oops, posted too quick. The males will fight with each other. Very much. If you have a female in there, they are definitely fighting for her attention, and very much over-mating her. The one circled in your pic is male also.

Also, the one you have with a straight single comb is mixed with something else. Very pretty boy, but I wouldn't use him to breed.

Good luck!

Yes.She does lay but not often.I was getting concerned because she had not laid for several months.she laid a large egg in the run this passed Monday.She has a habit of standing in the corner of the run and staring off.she is some what of a loner.I purchased her at our local tractor supply as a peep.in may of 2015.I was told by the man that waited on me that they were all pullets and were Isa Browns.Liar he was.I ended up with 4 pullets and 2 roosters.the rooster were meat birds.at the age of 3 months they had gotten so fat they could walk a few steps and than have to set down.I did find out they were red rangers.As I mentioned before I am pretty sure she is a meat bird.I did my research and found that they normally live a year.i have found her twiced this year limp and unable to walk.I brought her in the house and doctored her up.If she is.What I think she is she won't live much longer.

Only I could have that kind of luck.

Well, that would explain things. Guess that'll be the last time I buy from them.


Thanks so much for the help everyone.
