Hubby brought these two ladies home yesterday. Can anyone tell me what breeds they are? Lucy is, of course, the redhead. Thanks!

 

[fordmommy]

from Wisconsin. My un-offical guess would be black sexlink and red sexlink.

First off

and second ther red head is a Red Sex Link and the black looks like a Black Cochin. Does the black one have feathered feet?

No feathered feet on either girl.

on another note, Lucy's beak is crooked and doesn't match up properly. WIll that be an issue later on?

 

[M To The Maxx]

That can be a big issue.

uh-oh. Let me see if I have a pic of her beak.

See how her beak looks like a human's crossed fingers?

Thats called a cross beak. Many people cull those birds. I've heard of a few living with special care.

Cull?

And what kind of special care might she need?

 

[WhitehartRabbitry]

Cull means to kill/slaughter.

If you do not cull her she will most likely starve to death. I'm sorry.
