He looks great! What an interesing looking boy I knew he would fill out and look amazing when he got a bit older and I was right! Wow!

I should take regular pictures of my 2 splash chicks to see how they change as they grow up. I still don't know if they're boys or girls yet. One of the chicks I thought was a pullet turned out to be a blue salmon roo.

OK, I have a question. I was just given a black bantam faverolle hen. Do black faverolle's have white earlobes???????

Does anyone know??????

 

[keesmom]

They're supposed to be red.

I knew the salmon faverolle's are suppose to have red earlobes, but I did not know about the black. So now, I don't know what I have. She has the single comb, the muff, five toes, feathers on the feet/leg. she is dead on a faverolle except for the earlobes.........so now I am confused

Well this chick has not hatched for almost four days...five days late. I am going to give it one more day before I chuck it out. Had a bad hatch this time no fault of Henry's but the shipping is so hard on them! Will try again!!!!!!!

All faverolles are supposed to have red earlobes but there are very few that do. Most have enamle or white on there earlobes. Its something that many breeders are working on improving. Take some pictures! How is her type and color otherwise? Post some pictures.
