Okay...so here's the situation.
Between ordering through the mail and by process of 'chicken math' obtained chicks from two different private breeders, we ended up with 19 chicks total. All are supposed to be pullets. I've posted pics of my most suspect chick that I believe is a roo in another thread but I have some other suspicious characters sulking about the brooder box. My husband says that I'm nuts and while we -may- have one roo, no way do we have more then that. My gut says that we do...but I'll let you experts have at the pictures and tell me if we need to start picking some new names....All of the chicks are around 5 1/2 weeks old....
This is our barred rock....which I'm pretty sure is a roo. It's name was Bailey but we've got the name Loki ready to go if the masses think he is indeed a boy.
This is our Black Australorpe, named Epona...
French Vanilla.....an Exchequer Leghorn...
Tapioca....Delaware...
Juliet.....Silver Grey Dorking
Spicy Pecan...Golden Campine
And finally, one that I'm pretty sure is a girl but I thought you would all enjoy the pic. This is my Light Brahma girl....Latte. I believe she is narcoleptic because she loves to sit on my lap, watch tv and fall asleep.
Okay experts....do I have more then one roo? Who do I need to find new names for? =-)
