so did the 2 boys stay boys? i know that sounds silly, but they don't seem to be consistent in early development sometimes.
Yes actually they did, and both are nice. Sadly one of the girls I already had turned out to be a boy too <sigh> of course.
I keep intending to get some photos.
But at the moment I have
Pullet(mar2013 so almost a hen) crested , black based (black tail and black all over body color)"Flo"
Pullet pol !! non-crested, ?black base? blacktail , body is light tan/fawn color
3Cockerals
2 from you
--the Black based crested (top roo & I really like as he has flashes of every color it seams)
--the non-crested , I guess MF pattern technically? , tans w/ reds some blacks
&
--Blue based crested (from same hatch as pol pullet eggs from Papabrooder) love the colors, lowest chicken in the coop which I find odd
When I re-arrange for breeding Flo will be joining the boys and I'll be risking the dreaded double crest situation, but that is just how it will be for awhile, I think that those that hatch w/o issues will tend to be really pretty black based birds --??will any of those have a chance of being totally non-crested? I'm thinking 25% chance, then half of those could be female, so 12% chance of non-crested black based pullets, and if I do get that unicorn you bet I'll be keeping her ;> oops and apparently I just named the first one I get...
