I bought these 2 "girls" on Saturday to add some body heat to the coop (due to my husbands desperate pleas to move my 3 other 3 month-old gals out of the garage). Wish someone told me how addictive chickens really were before hand!
The guy I bought them from said they were Jersey Giants and about 4 months old. None are laying yet. They are a lot bigger than my 3m/o EE's and about 5lbs each.
Are these really Jersey Giants and if not, what? Also, are they pullets or roos?
There are two so lets call them #1 and #2. A few of my 4 wk old EE chicks snuck in the picture so ignore those little ones!
