Janty Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 They are growing so fast now...just thought that I'd share some photos with you. And yes, that is my leg that Lavender the Bluebell is perching on. I sat on the floor feeding them treats and taking photos and she came over and sat down. Has anybody any thoughts about Chipolata (the black and white one for those who don't know the is it a he or a she saga)? I'm thinking 'he' at the moment...huge wattles and comb compared to others. Tail is confusing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 The tail is confusing isn't it Chipolata does have a different diminour(spelling) from the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) Still think he's a boy......is his voice not breaking yet? Most of my boys have started practicing around 12 weeks (except for bantam Frizzles at 9 weeks ). His hackles are very boyish already and the saddle feathers look as if they're starting to droop.

Egluntyne Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I'm still thinking boy too, but the tail is a mystery. Lovely pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I think Chipolata is a girl. Looks like my Bounty did Not got typical features of a cockerel - so I'm saying girl. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkor Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 They are really coming on aren`t they. Lovely Blubelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 One of my chicks looks like Chipolata and I haven't a clue what sex it is, they're six weeks old tomorrow. I'll have to put new pics up and get opinions on him/her. Chipolatas head gear scream male but nothing else about him/her does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 I know. I keep hoping that it's a girl but I think that I am clutching at straws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
