He is growing pretty well too. I still haven't weighed him. Other than size, what should I be looking for? Full breast and wide carriage?Bummer you didn't get the wonky egg layer. What's wrong with them?
That's a handsome boy
The eggs are thin shelled, lightly colored and rough with calcium deposits. She has been doing this for almost a month. Several broke last week and made a mess in the nest. One a day and that was the missing egg.
I need to thin the layers down a bit more, but DD#2 has been taming them. Doesn't make it easy when they are this sweet and docile. The 3 this morning were the red feathered wild women. There may be something to the color and personality thing. The rest are black and black & white (Dominique mothers).
