Does rainbow have any saddle feathers starting? Cuz he looks like a he...if it wasn't for being 17 weeks old with no saddle feathers.

I can't quite tell, I looked but that one seems to be a slower maturing bird, most of the others have their saddles and hackles coming in. I'll take a better look tomorrow, may just be harder to spot on the light color.

Yeah, some are really slow. Ok. How much longer will you have them?

Yeah. I don't know, that red one, she's near five pounds but she's bigger than most, they averaged about 4 1/2 last I weighed, I think they need at least another couple pounds. Then there's the runts who've been seperated, some of those are only a pound. The bigger birds though have left feed in the feeders going on three days now, I didn't even feed them today.

Ok. But will you be getting your money's worth if you wait for the extra weight? That's small! Whatcha gonna do with those? Great!!

Mom has said though that any more WILL NOT be coming from that guy. He changed his breeding system and we lost half the birds, they literally dropped dead over night and the ones that didn't well those weigh a pound.

Have you gotten from him before with better results? Yeah, that was really bad.
