Hey guys,
I just have a few quick questions......
1st is:
I have two 8 week old Easter Eggers that are supposed to be pullets. I tend to really overwork myself about my own birds's gender, when i look at other pics on here, and just say, cockerel, pullet! You know.....
Okay, anyway, I'm pretty sure these are girls, BUT, they both do have 3 rows in their pea combs. I know this doesn't really mean a whole bunch, but is more commonly a rooster. So, thoughts on these two please?
I'm mostly concerned about this one:
2nd question:
I have a Salmon Faverolle pair, from a hatchery. I'm not particularly familiar with this breed, coloring wise. I was just wondering if my roo's coloring is correct, (looks like it's gonna develop into the correct pattern) or does it just look splotchy and all mixed up, like some hatchery birds??
Here he is:
And here is my pullet:
3rd and final question:
I have posted twice about my "splash silkies". I've had kind of half and half on if they are splash, or blue. I'm pretty positive that this is a blue, although it was completely white as a chick, just like a splash.
Thoughts? TIA!
