Hi,

I have a Rooster well Cockerel that may be a Light Sussex or a Delaware i'm not sure. I got him from a breeder, she said he was a Delaware but what do you think? Anyways he is 4-5 months old. I caught him mating with a few of the pullets Not crowing yet. I think he will be an Excellent breeder. I live in Moreno Valley California, so I may have to ship him to you.

Just tell me what you think and I'll get back to you!!



Thanks



William

This is not a good example of a Delaware and I would pass. Sorry but I call them as I see them and I would not use this in my breeding flock. Though I suspect it has little Delaware in it. I am also sorry I am to far away as I have 5 or 6 to get rid of and am waiting for the processor to call.

So he's not a Delaware?

Rancher Hicks: Do you ship? And where about in NY are you?

 

[FarmerBoy24]

Rancher Hicks: So its not a Delaware? Can you post pics of yours so I can see what a real Delaware looks like?


Thanks

Farmerboy, here is a thread from awhile back with several Delaware cockerels in pics. Your boy is at least part Columbian Rock--solid black tail where it should be barred. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=195040
