we're almost 5 months old, but what are we???

[Ducklove334]

this is Donte', the only surviving bantam that we ordered last fall,

I know he's a rooster, but WHAT breed is he???

and now for the turkens,

Roosters or hens???

I can only keep one roo

I'm pretty sure about this one, rooster right?

the other black one, hen or roo??

two of the red ones,hens? roos??

the last red one.

Maybe Donte is a bantam EE?

As far as the turkens I dont know, but if they havent crowed maybe they are all hens?

you might have to wait onthe NN a little longer they sex out late. the other Looks like an EE

 

[klf73]

don't know the breed of the first one, but he looks like he is a self-blue(lavender) d'anver?
sorry to say but the turkens all look like roos

EE as in easter egger, right? I didn't think they were bantams

no one has crowed yet, not even a pathetic starter one.

the Turkens were male packing peanuts, but we were starting to get hopeful that a few might be hens.

I wish i could keep them all, I love them to death but future MIL says no

 

[tiki244]

Awe

Well if any of them dont have pointy feathers by their tails, than keep that one(s).

That lavender does look kinda DUccleish too, but it doesnt have any leg feathers, which DUccles have.

 

[Harley's girl]

Aww, I am sorry.

I really am. I wish that the roosters laid! I love the crowing and the beautiful feathers.

So sorry.

Oh yeah EE (easter eggers) do come in bantam sizes.

the first is not an EE, haven't seen any hatcheries sell that color in an EE. I am still sticking with d'anver.....

I quite agree he's a d'anver; there are some on eBay now that look just like that
