I hope you keep posting - and hope you include lots of photos because there are a lot of us that enjoy our chickens without worrying about SOP. I don't plan on showing my birds in any shows - and probably won't breed them either. I think a floppy comb makes them more interesting. And some of the most beautiful chickens are mutts. Glad there isn't a SOP for people because if there was, I'd probably be culled.

That doesn't mean that I disagree with people who are very much into the SOP for chickens - it's just not something that everyone cares about.

I'm glad CarolJ posted this because I was thinking the same re: blackbird13's roo (I sent a pm stating as much). Please keep posting because we'd like to see your birds as they grow!

Okay, so I didn't get to it this weekend but here they are nonetheless....(if I can figure out how to add images)

Your rooster looks quite a bit older than the pullet, look at those spurs.

 

[sunnydalefarms]

Oh he definately is...

 

[Chickangel79]

How old is the pullet? Mine are not that dark

My guess is 16-20 weeks.

 

[Chickangel79]

This is mine at 13 weeks, so yours are a bit older

 

[sunnydalefarms]

That is good to know. Thanks for posting!
