My birds are molting too -- no eggs for a L O N G time..... (or is that nasty one eating them in 40-seconds without a trace.... ) Should we post pictures of molty birds to see who's looks the worst??
Only one tail feather left....she is looking a bit less than gorgeous of late. I wonder if it is an affront to their dignity to photograph them in molt....poor little kid.... HOWEVER, I do have to say that the feather she has retained is 45-degrees from horizontal.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo That is the UK SOP -- check out this one:
Where are you accessing the proposed SOP? From my recollection we omitted olive as this would only encourage confusion of pure bred birds with mixed breeds. All US birds currently lay either a blue or slightly green egg, part of which depends on your color perception. Perhaps you are looking at an early draft or at a UK standard?
Ok now back to before I so rudely interrupted... Which rooster should move up in the ranks? #2? Is it the double barring thing that helps reduce the red/gold?
Know what else? I went searching through the newsletter that I thought the draft was located in- and it wasn't there?!?! Now how did we do that? Anne did we decide to omit it from the 3rd quarter newsletter and I'm just forgetting? Or maybe I just skipped over it....Oh -- you know what.... I don't see egg color in either the one on the website or the one in the Club house -- guess I better go check the newsletter from that quarter....BUT is it possible that egg color was omitted from the DRAFT?????
