Hey there! Thanks for this beautiful Wheaten. She is really a fun one. She has a sneaky personality but very easy to handle. When do you think she will start laying? She was testing out the nestbox in this picture I guess, getting the feel of it.

I need to get a new picture of LouLou to put on here she is 8 weeks now and she is starting to get the feathers on her cheeks that stick out I dont know what they are called. Hopefully one of the more experienced people on here can enlighten me. But she iS getting really big too. Her dad was one of the biggest roosters i have ever seen. She is also the sweetest chick i have ever had. She is so much sweeter than even the silkies I have.

They call them "muffs" or "beards". My wheaton does not have any. The original owner that so graciously gave her to me called her "No Muffs"

Is LouLou show quality? What does anyone think? I know she aint old enough yet but what about potential? Anyone think she could have it?
