Beautiful...

Mine are molting and have stopped laying. Kinda sad to look in the laying box and find nothing

Here is my favorite roo. I got him from ruth. What do you think of his potential as far as conformation......I know its a little early, but just curious.

Maybe I'm partial but he looks super good to me. Five points, little persimmony speckles on chest, 45 degree angle tail, nice color, orange eyes - and still very young - and looks like he's going to have a "top roo" attitude too.

He's from Jesse's flock.

cant remember if I ever posted on here but here is my flock. They have filled out a lot more

Does anyone get eggs that are over a 6 on the chart? if so I would be very interested in buying some, but I have not seem many that dark, and those that advertise them dont seem to atrually send out ones that color using "late in the laying cycle as their excuse"

here's what I dont get, maybe someone could fill me in. But if you are breeding wouldnt you have up and comers each year after culling the non keepers, then each year wouldnt you have some new young girls laying? how is it people can claim their hens are late in the laying season when there should aways be newer younger ones to fill in their place?

I couldn't see his chest or comb that well (nor his legs). He's a got a lot of maturing to do.​
