meet Lurch & others

[7&8]

Here's Lurch, an eight week old bantam Barred Rock cockerel:

A friendly pullet:

Biscuit (foreground):

These are wonderful, vigorous little chicks, hatched & raised by an amazing broody. I'm looking forward to taking the nicest pullet & cockerel to a show in the Fall. I'm wondering how Lurch is going to turn out - he's looked like a picked over yard sale so far...

Wow...I don't know a lot about "show quality", but I must tell you your birds are striking!

 

[tamberlin]

I love your description of Lurch. Proves that roos are slower to feather out!

 

[jwg423]

Very good looking birds...

I don't have any barred chickens....

off to do some birdie shopping

Lurch's tiny little tail cracked me up!

Well then just about every one of my chicks is a hen then. All of them are getting feathers a heck of a lot faster than poor Lurch there. lol. And I'm actually supposed to have a few roos.

Lurch is such a cutie. I love his name too!
