I thought so too, but I should've waited longer.

Hopefully those are the only two boys.

Turns out I actually have 4 cockerels, @JacinLarkwell, here's one of the ones I think you might like.
I added more fat into their diet, & now feathers are growing in better.

Ignore my last post that labeled alot of pullets.

Oh he's handsome. Is he gonna look like a Faverolle color wise?

He's a Blue Wheaten, maybe possibly a splash Wheaten due to the light coloration in the breasts.

Faverolles have a Wheaten based coloration, so you can compare to that.

Are you still wanting one of the cockerels? If so we can chat in one of the conversations.

Malays are tricky to sex, but I'll get a hang of it.

Our trip to Michigan got cancelled unfortunately, so I won't be able to make it there this year. And if I remember right, you're not NPIP so that takes shipping out of the possibilities, so I'm afraid I'll have to pass on it
