New Hampshire 3 weeks - hen or rooster

[Michael OShay]

Skin color is the biggest give-away. New Hampshires have yellow legs/skin. Most of those hens have white legs/skin. There is at least one frizzle hen in that group as well.

Agreed.

I am not sure how she bred the variety in... but here is more eye candy of the frizzle

This is what I was hoping little eggie would turn into... By the end of it I was just grateful for the one little chick. We can't keep roos here... so I am hoping hen

Legs look pretty yellow here

but Pali's (shipped chick) legs aren't yellow like other chooks.

No idea what was bred to get those birds. Looks like they have the Blue/Black/Splash gene. But the breeder is a long way from getting them back to the New Hampshire build/body type.
