Sorry to say this wilderness and others, buy a paper map, period. That way when you get lost, you can sit and have a paper form of what you left at home, the computer. Those of us that used a paper atlas did not get lost.
There was a lot of issues regarding this subject at the Maine Chickenstock and it is up to each indivual to map out their own directions and schedules.
Respectfully,

It could just be of lesser quality color wise than the rest.......aside from that I don't know......

i dont know how i missed them, i love that color wyandotte.
and dont feel badly about it, i sold an ee and its turning into something else, so sometimes it is just a mistaken identity. no harm meant in it.

I was hoping for at least 1-2 BLRW pullets out of the 4 st. run chicks I got. Based on the back color pattern, I think I have 1 BLRW cock and 2 BLRW pullets. So I'm very happy. I'm just curious to see what mystery chick turns out to be, as far as color and gender.

This is so cool that New England is the hot spot for Chickenstocks! Woohoooo. I know its not a contest, but it just cool that we have all met and found each other as friends!
Next year I'll host a chickenstock at our TSC here in Oxford. Walmart is next door so anyone of you that have self containing campers can park there for the night. Cool eh!

It does happen I bought 2 JGs and they are not looking like what they should but oh well

 

[chickn]

siz, not you too
what are they looking like? this may explain why my australorp is getting so tall. are you going in sept, we can trade. the australorp and the j giant chicks looked alot alike, and the jersey's hatched first, so i dont think he made a boxing mistake, but we will see.
after i read this i did some research and jg's have yellow skin, the australorp has white, and i think the cone peaks one has 5 the other has 6 or something, have to look that up again to know
can you take a picture? i will go out later and take a pic of mine. i think its a hen,
is that the 2 boys you talked of earlier?

anyone else know any other differences, these are what ,,,a few months old at this point 5/14 hatch. i hatched 4,
that little black chick hatched out of a green egg. i would bet my life on it, it was the only chick like that in the hatch.

 

[siz8003]

I think its a pullet and is so small. I will go out and snap a few pics right now

 

[siz8003]

I made them big so you can see. Someone told me she is not a giant and she does look small to me but

 

[chickn]

looking at yours and mine they seem the same to me.
these are what, 12 weeks old or so? i have been doing some reading, comparing jg to australorps since those are the 2 eggs i hatched that are black chicks
jg should have yellow bottoms of feet aust. have pinkish jg's have 6 points to their combs but havent found how many aust, have, can u get a better face shot of yours?

anyone else have any imput???? maybe we could start a thread that will get attention and ask others,
OMG is this a roo????
