Show off your Delawares! *PIC HEAVY*

[Zanna]

The delaware poultry club has a list of breeders. They were working on their website and making some changes and I am not sure the link anymore. Maybe someone else here will chime in.

Trying to upload photos of my dels, but it's coming slowly.. Okay, here's....

Aaaaand Jose:




Jose has some crooked toes, but it doesn't seem to bother him so bad, he still acts like a normal chicken, he just looks a little different. Would it be possible to Exhibit Jose or would it be DQ due to the crooked toes?

This is the largest chick out if my first Delaware hatch. It's almost 5 weeks old and nearly twice the size of the others. Also the largest and only red comb. I'm hoping for a roo, but it's really white all over. I read the boys have more color, so IDK.

Looks like a cockerel to me.

Crooked toes are considered a defect, not a DQ. 1/2 to 2 points off per each crooked toe. If he has several crooked toes, that would knock him down quite a bit right there in points not even taking into account other features, so show him for fun if you wish but don't expect to be Best in Show

I will see if I can get mine to sit still for one second. lol And take a few updated pics. I will have PLENTY of roos!! I think half of my 25 are going to be roos. Mine already have bright red combs and wattles.
