One of my baby girls laid an egg today

I was so excited to see her sitting in that nest box - just like she owned it! Good girl

LOL agreed, I will let u know if we're both wrong

 

[n8ivetxn]

It's happened to me before!

I'd say you got it right . The 1st pic is a pullet the 2nd one is a cockeral ..willing to bet money on it

lighter one is a girl, darker is a boy

Two cents here but I totally agree. Pullet and cockerel.


And to prove that the boy has a beard and nice feathered toes.

I love this face!!!




Can you tell its cold here?

 

[n8ivetxn]

That is a cute face - And he probably needs all of that fluff to keep him toasty warm!

Yeah, it looks cold. Did the little guy go out and buy an overcoat? That is one fluffed up bird!

OK, here you go: Ideal Poultry Faverolle feet.
Of course Anais wasn't willing to stand still so we have some blur, but I'm posting those just so you can see both the front and back ends

As you can see, they aren't the beautiful clear Salmon color of the breeder's birds being posted here and her feet are not nearly as feathered.
20 1/2 weeks.







This one is almost surreal. Not a lot of light and the digital camera isn't the highest quality.




That is Zia (Anacona) next to her. She MIGHT be the supplier of egg #1, laid Friday.
But it isn't really white so maybe another girl was ready first and I'm not recognizing the signs.
Yeah, it is small, but is the FIRST!

cool got to love it when the 1st egg comes.
