I found a better pic of George from the front, so you can see his feather pattern there - this is where BabyMama got her patterning from.

Those are some of the prettiest hens 'n roos I've ever seen, mutts or no! I'd grab one like BabyMama up if I had the chance - lovely girl!!!

George is very chunky!!

I must be used to seeing Charlie's tall, lanky frame. George is kind of 'squat' looking, isn't he??

But Charlie is all legs, so maybe that's why George looks so different?

Oh I LOVE them!!

Yeah, all of them are very chunky

George is a cross, I think, between a LF and a bantam somewhere back in there (not parent birds, maybe grandparent or further back) - he isn't as tall as Charlie is, but he is certainly much taller than an oegb.

He does have shorter legs than Charlie, too.

Those pics were taken in early spring/late winter, so they'd been chowing down on the grain all winter long - they do slim up a bit in summer, cause I cut back on grain to coax hem to eat more bugs and such. Even now, though, they're kinda chunky

I've been trying to cut them down a bit more, but what can I do when they come begging - the adorable little boogers.

One reason for treats right now is I am trying to train the newer ones that me yelling "Chick Chick Chick" (like an idiot) means they get treats - so when or if I ever had to put them in their coops before "their" time to go in, I could perhaps get most of them in the coop at least.

very pretty

she looks much like my Sepia (SLW x Welsummer) and, amazingly, one of my roos (SFxSLW)...go figure.

Those are some pretty chickens. The mama's look like my OEGB Silver Gingers, they are the sweetest chickens. I love all OEGB.
