haha Absolutely! I didn't want to drive the poor babies crazy going pic happy...trust that more will be forth coming! In the meantime, I'll attached some pics of another chick I had that was a mystery for a bit. Some BYC folks were saying it was an Australorp, but something about the head markings wasn't 100% (something about an "M" shape wasn't there and should be...not so sure), but it turned out to be a Black Sex Link. We found out that someone got into the guy's grouping of Barred Rocks and this was confirmed by a gentleman at USDA and another at Penn State.
There is a difference in the color of the feet between the Jersey Giants and the Australorps. The Austras have pink bottoms on the feet and the Jerseys have yellow. I never tipped my Sex Link over, but her's are SUPER dark. We KNOW that the new baby is a Jersey Giant, though.
