I have some Large Speckled Russian Orloff's roo's that are only 2 weeks old and they will be up for sale in another 6 to 8 weeks as I am finding I have more then original anticipated

How can you tell at 2 weeks? I haven't been able to figure it out even close to that early.

They are looking nice RiddleMe.

Hello everyone! I am new to RO and just ordered some from Ideal. 5 pullets and 1 roo. And I was just wondering if anyone has pics of RO hens and roos that they got from IDEAL POULTRY.
Thanks in advance! :-D

For those who haven't seen the potential difference in birds after their first adult molt. These girls are actually only 11 months, but they matured early (hatched Feb '12, first eggs at 18-20 weeks), and I think that triggered a winter molt. Going to hatch a little later this spring, hoping to push the molt more towards the 18 month mark.

Oh, thanks so much for sharing! My girl was hatched in July & not yet laying, but I was concerned with her lack of spangling. You gave me piece of mind!!

Funniest thing this morning- kids and I get down to the RO coop and not a bird is to be seen! Temp for today -3° with wind chill, snow less than an inch this morning. All 6 juveniles were still in the house poking their heads out at us like WE were crazy for walking in the white stuff I stuck my head in the house when I opened the nest box door and sure enough they had it toasty warm in there. My kid had to 'encourage' the last cockerel out after everyone else came down for food and non frozen water. Oldest says "Don't they come from Russia? There's way more snow there!"
