Sasso Ironas - Looking for photos of adult birds.

Does anyone have adult Sasso Irona chickens that they wouldn't mind sharing pictures of? Google doesn't seem to bring up anything except for the same two photos all of the hatcheries are using.

Those are the ones! I'm mostly wondering what the hens look like. I've got four 6 week olds. One is definitely a cockerel and the other three seem to be female. All of the hen photos I've seen look pretty similar to a Barred Rock but my three that I think are pullets have varying amounts of red feathers on their head and breast. The rooster stock photo shows this red but not the hens and I'm little worried I'm going to end up with all boys

I'd like to see your chicks.

This is the cockerel from today. The other three are quite shy and I don't have good, recent pictures of them. I can get some tomorrow though.

I'll check back tomorrow.

Here are the other three, the (hopefully) females. The red is just starting to come in and the camera didn't pick it up well. The first one has no red, the second a little bit and the third has more. These three feathered out really quickly whereas the "for sure" cockerel feathered out extremely slowly. He's also a fair bit lighter colored than these three.

Not knowing for sure what the adults look like makes sexing them a little more difficult (especially where they aren't old enough to have saddle feathers yet) but, based on the differences I've seen so far between these three and the cockerel, I'm guessing these three are likely female. I'm just a bit paranoid

I forgot to hit reply when I posted them but the photos are above

Another of the cockerel from a week ago that shows more of his body.
