***OKIES in the BYC III ***

Here are the chicks that survived in addition to the 4 hens




Audra, I am thinking is a girl, she has the horned comb, and the oddest genetic puzzle for any genetics minded okies, she is getting feathers on her leg!!!!!!!! I have never had any chicken w/ feathered legs at all ever!!!!!




Barred boy, if I end up keeping him he will be Shakespear. He is my number 2 pick right now. He does not carry Sc, but he would be a back up roo (thinking I will keep 2 boys) In a perfect world both kept boys would carry Sc, and that may still be possible depending on what hatches from the eggs incubating right now.






Main man. He doesn't have Jaxom's exotic good looks, more classic good looks. I think he will color up similar to Jax, only w/o the dark skin and awesomely funky comb. He does carry Sc and is staying no matter what.










Number 3 (boy) he I think is going to have a cool look to the color/patterning of his feathers, but he has the biggest bow tie and does not carry the Sc gene. It is not likely I will keep him.




Oreo's boys, they look almost identical, and think will end up looking very much like him, neither one will be staying. I am determined to streamline to NN.


Oreo's girl, she also won't be staying, but if she continues to be a girl she will go live w/ my FIL's flock.










White bottom girl, big bow tie and she will stay for now since I don't have a lot of bare necks to chose from and my new main roo(let) is bare necked I may have to keep a few large bow tied girls until I have more to chose from.

Are the eggs really dark?
Not as dark as I had hoped they would be. Kind of surprised me. Could that be cause they are so young?
 
Kass, is it too late to caponize the Oreo boys? I'd love to take them if we could caponize them. It's be nice to have a little piece of Oreo.

No not to late, I think Coral and I are going to try and meet up this week if both our schedules work out.
