Me too, I had the option and I picked LF. $25 for one trio!

Your getting a Fav rooster?

 

[Flowerbh]

Here's the one I think is a roo. Whaddya think?

OK, I am confused. I thought males grew out black and females grew out cream/tan. So if this is a male, why is it so girly colored? Just trying to learn.. hatched two favorelles 3 weeks ago and I assumed mine were females because they are the cream/tan.

Hard to tell by that pic. I would like to see it from the side rhe whole body. I would not say that was a cockerel from that pic.

Alright...I'll get a better pic. This is the first Fav I'm raising from a chick... all the rest I have came to me when they were pullets.

These guys might be a little older than yours, but you can see the male is waaaayyy darker than your picture.

I have three extras if you want one

Edit: actually, yours looks like it may be older. Mine are 1.5 months

 

[TheCrazyClucker]

Agghh... people get me worked up over getting a roo and I get a hen...

Oh well. Beautiful birds, Sahwithchicks. I might take you up on your offer...
