Thank you, EweSheep. Yes, I'm planning on keeping both until we know more, but I'm definitely wanting to learn what I can now. Here are some pullet pix, if anyone can chime in on those, too:

How old are these pullets? I have 2 from Pink that are just 19 weeks this weekend... Beauties!

I think they were hatched mid-June. Is that right, Pink?

As I remember, you hatched shipped eggs from Pink, but I thought you got more than 2. What happened to the rest?

 

[enggass]

Hatched 8... Sold 4(couple of roos) and gave 2 to my Brother-In-Law locally...(so I kind of still have 4)

6 on "A" including the little stupid extra half point

4 on "B"


They were 6 weeks old...give or take a couple days when you picked them up.

Those girls are looking good. Can't believe those couple of girls that are still working on their tails, can't wait until they grow in.

Hey...BTW, Thanks for the picture the other day via PM...ADORABLE!!!!!!!

They are both still young, but I'm liking B right now. They change so much in the first 6 months.

When I get more welsummers I needs some MOOSE offspring... (big grins)

Anytime, just let me know.

I almost got my hands on some of your stock from Fay. But we couldn't work out the timing with another order she had, and I couldn't let my broody sit any longer in the heat of summer. (she sat an extra week and hatched her babies 8/1)
