grannys gone and done it

[Granny Hatchet]

its pretty sad , will be the only one seeing them. with the mg. i hope they look better when they are grown. i havent even looked for a pic of them. lol just keeping them alive was enough for me. maybe i will figure the hen from the roo. i hope i dont have a lot of roos because i will have to cull them unless they all get along with each other. they might so far, they are.

How old are they now?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

ummm, i bought them during the swap, oh, mothers day weekend. they were probably a couple weeks when i got them so around 2 months?

The roosters should have definitely pink/red now. The pullets combs should not be hardly noticable.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

i am going to have to wait till they roost, they dont hold still long enough for a count. and at night some of them pile. some are roosting on a tree branch 4ft. high. heard something crow in there yesterday , it was pretty sad sounding. lol

one guinea, all alone. it pipped this morning or last night and was doing nothing. me in my infinite knowledge. realized the struggles the poor chap was suffering through and helped bring it into this world. OK, i got impatient! it was way ready to come so that scares me about the others not being able to pip. i hope its a good hatch. my neighbor is really looking forward to them. in 20 minutes it is dry and running. lol

Maybe the others will follow soon. Would love to see a picture!

 

[Granny Hatchet]

i hope so . what is he going to do with just one guinea?

 

[enola]

Granny just Google crested cream legbars you will see pictures of them there.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

i just did and i still think they are kinda ugly. i seen a few roos that were good looking nice tail carriage but if all the roos are those light cream solid color then i dont have any. i do have some that look sorta like that soft barred coloring and i seen all of mine but

they just dont pop. i like the colors bold, contrasting like the mille flure or calico.
