I'd give that a solid 6/10!

A solid 5/10. Correct me if I’m wrong, but that looks like just a little baby, so it’s beard probably hasn’t come in all the way.

Good point. Changing my rating to agree with yours. More magnificent beard is sure to follow!

Yep. Just a babe....12 weeks

My bearded wonders just had stubble at your chick’s age. The beards will grow.

How old are they? I'll give the first one a 7/10 and the second one a 9/10, if they're the same bird then I give an 8/10.

 

[Bear and Dart]

This is my 3 year old EE Bear,

The OE who she hatched last summer, who since February has passed. Her name is Dart, sorry it’s hard to see her beard

These are the newest EEs, Rhonda, big red chick, and Cilantro, the small black and white chick. They don’t have much of any beards yet but I thought I’d show them off anyway ( photo from last week )

And finally Sugar, the Salmon Faverolles who I’m guessing I’d actually a boy, she/he still has a baby beard too, this photo is actually from a few weeks ago since she/he always gets their beard wet.

Bear gets an 11/10! Truly magnificent! Dart gets an 8/10. Rhonda and Cilantro get 1.5/10 each, but more beard is sure to come! Sugar gets a 1/10. I see more beards in your future!
