My son brought a baby chick home from school last May, it was the largest chick hatched and all black. This is what she looks like now at 6 months old...any idea what breed? We thought at first a Barred Rock or Plymoth Rock but she seems alot lighter in color. Any ideas?

Black SL roo, you can see hackle feathers (they look like he's wearing a spikey collar). Some roos are just slow to mature.

Dont they though! I have two faverolle boys who have just hit the rotten teen years, and they've yet to crow! They're doing everything else, not crowing! AND no, it isn't cuz they are low totem roos. They're free range and the only ones they fight with are each other. The head roo doesn't even bother with them. Maybe I got lucky, and they won't crow!
