Aww that’s awesome!! do you have any pictures of what she looks like now that she’s matured? I think I forget that salmon favorells have smaller combs than usual, but my favorelles has a small comb and it’s barely red.It’s funny you ask, I believe she laid her first egg yesterday! It’s a small pinkish cream longer skinny pullet size egg. She’s 23.5 weeks old
Yes! Here is one from this morning. It’s still a rather light color but darker than before
My SF is a very sweet girl, she's noisy though! They talk a LOT haha, not super loud unless laying, but chatty! Will spill all the tea on the flock with you while you visit. She is definitely low in the pecking order, even below my white "street" silkie Betty White, but gets along with everyone. I think they would end up doing fine with your flock! Lower than the cochins and sassier d'Uccles but higher in the order than most of your silkies. I have no experience with the roosters but have heard they are really great in general as far as personalities go. If the breeder is a good one, they should have great personalities and be sweet and gentle. I think you would like them! That is a pretty good price for 5 show quality birds! I've paid almost that much for 3 bobtail cochin roosters
I don't need 5 though! That's the problem...n convincing DH lol.My SF is a very sweet girl, she's noisy though! They talk a LOT haha, not super loud unless laying, but chatty!

I say take them all and then once you get to know them and their personalities, pick the ones you love the most and sell the others. Show quality should get you some decent returns--especially if you go to a close by poultry show and advertise them.
4-H kids would love bantam SFs!!
