I hope you were able to find the WH. Our girls arrived from Metzer Farms yesterday. Surprisingly, Megan is much darker than Maggie. I wonder if that means anything in terms of adult plumage. Does anyone know? WH are an awesome breed. I do not see us having anything else (at least for this year).
Also Mom to 2 Mallards, Oliver and Mimic.
Congrats on the new babies! I have two Welshie girls and they went through multiple color changes as they matured. And I have a feeling it will change every time they molt as well. It's pretty subtle, but there is still a lot of variation if you look close. Also one had a much lighter beak at first, but now you'd never be able to tell.
