The hens look pretty big too.

love they type and they copper quality .is there cockerels running with them I can see the feathers on they back is damaged , never keep a pullet with cockerels or rooster very bad practice . pullets need to grow by them selves so they develop they full body type .

There were, that’s why they were being butchered. I should’ve done it a week ago.

Not sure if you can see but one of my FCM hens has started to get white around beak and on the wattle. Does anyone know what this is?

I must say I’m quite guilty of overlooking Joannie, but she was looking lovely in these photos I took a few weeks ago.

In other news, my silkies keep threatening to go broody. If one commits next week (which I’m sure one will), I may set some SCMxBCM eggs. I got a random egg from Channel last week so would like her to lay some more to get another cockerel from her.
