I am thinking I have too many roos. But I keep going back and forth about what to do. I really enjoy them all, just not sure I have enough space. So, do you keep the nicest, or the most versatile? Do you keep one you may not use for a generation or three? Or only the ones you are going to need now?

I want to do a B/B/S pen, but do I really need a roo of each color? I so need to get some more nice pullets. Two of the pullets I bought turned out to be roos, and now I have more roos than pullets. 

I am also going to get rid of my whites and buffs, because I really don't think I am going to use them.... So unsure of what to do. 

Any advice?

If you want a bbs pen. Keep in mind that if you breed blue to blue you will end up with all 3 colors...50% blue, 25% black, and 25% splash.

Are you sure that one on the right is a girl? Looks kind of boyish, but hey, who knows! Hope it's a she! Either way, stunning! I'd be happy.

I must admit I was thinking the same thing...

So nice to see you on the thread again, Silver Silkie!


WOW, gorgeous!! They are beautiful! Are you sure that one on the right is a girl? Looks kind of boyish, but hey, who knows! Hope it's a she! Either way, stunning! I'd be happy.

Here's another picture of this "girl". Doesn't look so boyish.

Wow, a picture can sure distort the way we see things! This bird absolutely does NOT look like a boy here! I think you're safe.

Before, it was the look of the tail, the stance and the wings that made me think boy. I love the coloring on this bird! Do you think this Splash is silver based or Gold? It sure looks like a brighter/whiter splash which is so pretty! ...or is that the way the photo makes it look? LOL
