My new cross >=)

[Retaccire]

Alrighty, lets start off with what they are. They are a cross between a black frizzled Cochin bantam and roundhead game hens, they're about 6 months old and absolutely gorgeous, there are three colors red, silver, and gold. The pictures however do not do them Justice and the pictures also make the gold and silver look about the same color but I promise they're not,let me know what y'all think I also have some pullets coming of age soon, hopefully they'll be hens within the next month

Pullets aren't hens until they reach 1 year old

By all official uses of the word, 'hen' is only applicable to females over one year of age.
Full fledged hen is not a thing.

gotcha facts are facts ^_^; so........those pullets that i have, when they inevitably become hens in 6 months i was thinking of crossing them with my BB old english bantam

And these would be the candidates for said crossing
