Ok, we got these "hens" from my mothers friend. They were "suprise" chicks from a hatchery. The gentleman thought they were Fiomas (sp?) but we are sure that's not the case. I say "hens" because the darker ones feathering looks more rooster like. They're about 7mos old, and no one has seen or herd it crow, yet our 4mo old Marans rooster has been crowing awhile now. As well as the Olive Egger roo. No clue what color eggs might be, since the previous owner didn't know if these we're laying yet, and we've only had them 3 days, so no eggs expected due to stress. What I do know: bright yellow legs on the lighter hen. Yellow with a little darker coloring on the darker "hen". No extra toes. Darker one has what looks to be outlining like what you'd see on a wyondotte. Possibly a blue wyondotte? The lighter hen doesn't seem to have outlining, but has darker lines on her back. Both have clean legs. Both are pea combed, and both have "spikey" feathers on the side of the combs. That about sums up what we know for sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated
and thanks in advance!!
