Yep!!Where did you get them? What color eggs do they lay?
They were a gift - I think from Tractor Supply. They are nearly 4 months, not laying yet.Where did you get them? What color eggs do they lay?
Thank you! They are sweeties. I love their friendliness and chatter. I was surprised to see them going after cicadas at nearly 4 months.They are very pretty mixes.
The last one has some Wyandotte in it, as shown by the hints of lacing and the rose comb. And obviously some type of red bird was the other parent.
The other two look much like New Hampshire reds, but they have white earlobes, so probably crossed with Leghorns or a similar breed. They are beautiful.
That's what I'm thinking too. Not sure what's up with the white earlobes. The rose combed one if from TSC could be a mix called a Cinnamon Queen.They are very pretty mixes.

Yes, that's a possibility. They are all likely hatchery layer hybrids of some type, just not sure which.That's what I'm thinking too. Not sure what's up with the white earlobes. The rose combed one if from TSC could be a mix called a Cinnamon Queen.
