15/16 of the chicks I didn’t take a pic of the oldest. Still debating which ones I wanna keep

Red band is a Pullet not pictured
Orange bands I hatched 4\5 pullets and green bands I hatched 6/10 pullets

Processed 6 green bands only seen 3 left I know two died weeks ago one from being stuck behind the feed bin and one between a coop and shed

Processed the roosters few weeks ago and the broody raised hen and processed the last two last years green bands today,

only got one last years blue band left as she went through me shaking her basically abusing her trying to empty her crop from it having to many rocks in it. Still got the red band the orange bands left

Last years blue band was killed by a coon as with this one of this years green band.
This years red band laid her first egg 20250712.
Red band

Group of them

These two where from my ee/mottled/Chocolate roo over Tolbunt hen might use the roo for my next gen ees

Got more eggs from my ee/ch/mot roo over blue band that died eggs due the 21st hoping to hatch a chocolate laced mottled basically a chocolate Tolbunt

Decided to process the ee mottled roo because he’s not mottled so not dealing with that also process the last 4 mottles so only have a quad left the roo that’s left is junk so prolly won’t use him but I have a young cockerel that is laced and should be split mottled and has yellow legs so might use that one instead
Ee roo no mottling so no need

Had mottling but looks to much like a speckled Sussex and was skittish so processed

Not good mottling

Another not good mottling

And another not good mottling

So I have two orange bands left a green band and the red band.
