    Can anybody confirm for me that these RIR's that were sold to me as females are really females? they are right around 5 weeks old and I have my suspicions about two of them but am not sure and I need to get back with the feed store if they are roos.

    I hope this link works I am not really sure how to do it.

    Thanks.http://www.flickr.com/photos/chickenaddict/

    Wow, I sure hope they are because they look just like the two 'pullets' I got from the feed store!

    Btw, you can directly attach a link by clicking the http:// button above, and then putting the web address between the two tags. http://www.flickr.com/photos/chickenaddict/

    Thanks for fixing that. I knew that button had to do something but I couldn't figure out what.
