one of my SG roos in the same variety...looks white-ish unless you see him by a white

Not porcelain and don't think they are lavender either
They could be double silver gene whites - some call them 'Pearl' because of that hue they have to them.

the way you breed in the city is wait till your girls are laying and get a roo and when the neigh(bore)r's ccomplain by then your girls should be broody

Very true, healthy poo...healthy animals. Inspect the poo people!

I check out the poop at the farm all the time.

Having almost 60 horses and over a 100 other animals.....that's a lot of poo.

This may be a noobie question, but with all this poo talk, I was wondering... What does healthy poo and unhealthy poo look like and what do you look for when inspecting it?

Oh boy, that sounds like what they could be. I'm going to Fowl Fest here in MI in October and plan to get some opinions where people can actually see them...although these pictures caught the color pretty well. Is this something I should try to cull out of my flock? Could these been shown?

I think if you type in poop page in the search box you might come up with a link that shows all kinds of normal poop and then ones that are not.
