What are the odds?

Sharing is caring... lol

I need some more coffee too.

Been stalking this thread to see pics of these mystery birds:cool:


I took three pics of em...

The clean box I put them in last night at bedtime, is already too messed up to take pictures of them this morning.

And I'm planning a trip to town before the sun comes up...

Sorry, but if you wanna see pics of my chicks, you'll have to wait longer.
 
I talked to the breeder this morning...

He told me they could still be hens, and I find it hard to believe he had any bad intentions.

I see different patterns and lighter feathering on different birds, but not on the same birds...

It looks like there could be hens in there, but the "spur buds" concern me.
All chickens have spur buds even if they don't all grow into spurs. Sometimes they are hard to see, small like a pimple. I've got a bunch of Grays, Hatches and Roundheads and a lot of the hens have spurs. Assil hens can have them. Assils are excellent broodies and mommas, but once the chicks hatch be very careful around her and them. They can be extremely protective and vicious. I had my hand broken in 2 place by a game hen with spurs by sticking my hand in brooder too fast when feeding them.:old
