Single hen

[Janty]

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.

The tail is confusing isn't it Chipolata does have a different diminour(spelling) from the others.

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.

what lovely chooks you have

[Egluntyne]

I'm still thinking boy too, but the tail is a mystery.

 

Lovely pictures.

[Chickvic]

I think boy - but you have loads of lovely girls as well!

[craftyhunnypie]

I think Chipolata is a girl. Looks like my Bounty did Not got typical features of a cockerel - so I'm saying girl.

Wow they have grown, they look which ones are you keeping?

[Falkor]

They are really coming on aren`t they.

 

Lovely Blubelle

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.

[Janty]

I know.

 

I keep hoping that it's a girl but I think that I am clutching at straws.

Wow! they've grown so much since your coffee morning. They look proper young ladies now!
