surferdog Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Yes she's got black tail feathers and the photo doesn't really do her justice. Her head and neck feathers are an irridescent red - they really glisten in the sunshine. She's a Nova Ranger but I think that's the breeder name and she may be similar to the gingernut ranger.

Egg Lou Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 This is the one I think is a Pied?? Thought the other one was called a "Black Tailed sussex or suffolk" but can't remember! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surferdog Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 yes those two are very similar to mine. I think the different breeders use different names for the same types of hybrids, eg our Bluebell was sold as a Blue Nova. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Rhapsody.. not sure what "whethers" are sorry but took a a few pics and wondered if these were your two? I havent seen them yet but OMG they look like Justin (my goats are Colin and Justin) so yes could well be my boys!!!!!!!!Thanks!! Whethers are castrated males, like a goat gelding. *goes off to squeak at pic* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
