Here ya go....yellow, an this being a hen............but imagine it on a cockerel...View attachment 1043349
I got these when they were about 10 weeks old and the original owner wasn't doing water nipples. I've never had much trouble getting any to switch over and these took to it pretty fast. Hold a small bit of fruit, that I know they like, near the nipple seems to get them to peck in the right place faster. Otherwise they tend to just go after the water that hits the ground. Silly birds! In this case one seems much more inclined to peck the nipple than the other one. I wonder if the crest has anything to do with it. I'm thinking vision impairment.
Mine are both pullets, a splash that's non-crested and a crested blue based red(?). I get very confused when it comes to naming the red/orange/brown/mahogany and what you are calling yellow. And I can't really picture what a yellow one would look like. Do you happen to have a picture, or a link to a picture that would show what you have in mind? When I think yellow, I think of baby chick and baby duck yellow.
That being said, the 2 flocks I know around here that aren't totally related are Nicole Davis (edmonds) and Carolyn Schuster (gig harbor). Todd in Oregon (near Travis) used to have them, too, can't remember his last name. And there are a lot of breeders on the East coast and Florida that have some nice flocks with a lot of variety.
they have decided to close the Morton store when the lease on the building is up
