Estamets if you lift the wings and look at the saddle feathers that way, you can see them sooner than waiting for them to appear on the back. I think you'd see the start of saddle feathers by now at 8 weeks. Nice looking chick whatever it is boy or girl!
Thank you!! I'm usually pretty pleased with the quality of the birds from MPC, especially since I'm not breeding or anything. They're REALLY good for backyard flock birds!
