Old English Game??

[LuLuBelle]

I have two chickens that look the same, one is slightly smaller then the other, but I think the bigger one is a rooster, but I am not sure... Here are some pictures... and are they Old English Games?

Chicken #1 (Smaller)

Chicken # 2 (slightly larger)

Any thoughts??

They appear to be OEGBs

I think the first one is a hen, but the second I'm not sure. It stands like a rooster, but the comb and tail are looking to be more hen-ish in my opinion.

Hmmmm. I'll see if I can get some more pictures... or maybe wait another week.

Both are looking like BB Red pullets to me.

BB red pullets.. unless the larger one is a hennie... Which i've only seen one pair of in OEGB's

They look like OEGB B.B Red Pullets. Roosters at that stage tend to have larger combs, black breasts and some red neck feathers. The hens typically get that brownish red breast and some yellow in their neck feathers.

What is BB Red?

B.B Red means Black Breasted Red, which is a color type.

Here is Anne my B.B Red OEGB Hen with her five chicks which are also B.B Reds.
