@bellium --so how is your chick looking? Any new pics?

closing in on three months old now, and very difficult to photograph! head says pullet, tail says cockerel.

There is an official BYC comb contest, with a category for V combs here:

Oh No!!!

Oh No!!!

i know, it stinks. the price i pay for straight runs. i look at it this way, if i hadn’t impulsively bought a bunch of random chicks from TSC i never would have been introduced to the breed, and what a shame that would be!

ah....too bad.
I'm planning on taking #2 cockerel to poultry swap Sat. The brothers get along but it's stressful for 9 girls, getting chased so much.

the girl who took my first spitz is taking this one, too. it will be a happy reunion - except probably not because i doubt they’ll remember each other. now i just need to find a home for my jersey giant roo!
