(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community? :D

was just looking for info about different chicken breeds and found the site oof
 
Welcome to BYC! Do you have pictures of your mystery girl? What color skin does she have?
Sadly I dont have any pictures of the girls yet, her skin is red though! We only started discussing adopting the girls yesterday as a distraction due to my rooster having to be put down but we are now planning things to be ready to adopt them

Red? Don’t think I’ve ever seen a red skinned breed. Orpingtons should have white skin. Australorps too. Jersey Giants should have yellow. What color are her legs?

Sorry think i got a bit confused what you meant by skin color ;0; she looks a little like this but no leg feathers and fully black! She also a little petite

Ah okay, so she has yellow legs? That would mean not orpington, Australorp, or Jersey Giant. When you get her post some pics in our breed and gender forum And we’ll help you figure it out. 😊
