Har, I have a pullet who went through a phase with that- the front of her comb curved and almost fell over, now it appears to be straightening. If you have a great body and tail set on a bird with a comb like that, I am assuming once you get great bodies coming constantly, then you would work on the comb. I am basing that off what others said, so I could be remembering wrong.

Nicole- you are getting bantam Barnies, too? Lucky you!

Yup

Not many though. Just a few! They'll be the only banties we'll have, so, hopefully they don't feel too left out

And you haven't posted a copy of said pictures to here yet? Come on woman! Get your act together! We gotta have PICTURES!!! Don't hold out on us now! You just march right back to your inbox and cut and paste those pictures to this thread! Go on! Be a good girl! Your Del's would want you to do this!

This is also a test of how well under the Dellie mind control you are! ................Any bets on whether or not she and DH skip their camping trip this weekend??

With picture credit to tnchickenut, here's the pair..

But I think she's purty

Snowhunter- anyway you can get side shots so we can see the outline of those beauties? How old are they? The color looks GOOD. I don't think I have ever seen a pullet with that much color on her neck - we need Walt here - Walt, where are you?

Thank goodness for the Delaware personality. The orther day I let my point of lay pullets out to free range after being in a outside pen and house up to this point. I usually don't mingle with them while there in the house(I know shame on me). Of course they buck and kick and play after being let out. A couple of days ago I got down on my knee to pick somthing up and a small rock stuck to my skin(had shorts on). A Del pullet walked up to me and pecked the rock off and I'm sure she said that don't belong there. Even though I haven't had much contact with them they are now hanging with me and etc. Its really neat how them Dels interact with people.
