I have 24 wheatens and hope to find some with the darker undercolor who are also good in all the other areas also. They have heavily feathered shanks so thats good. I did notice that there were some that had bad combs and a couple that are not nearly as large as most of them. Actually, I was not going to do too much with them cause I also have the BC's, Black Tail Buffs and Golden Cuckoos and I am not completely set up for seperating and breeding more than two types yet. All of them free range now out of one coop but I have an additional shed that I plan to split in two and fence a couple of yards for them. I was going to concentrate on the BC's and the cuckoos to begin with but thoughs darn wheatens are so prettey I might have to make three yards and do those also. I always over-do everything anyway, what the heck?
