My Growers - Part Two - The Unknowns.

Recommended Posts

I haven't a clue what this lot are! Opinions gratefully received but I fear I'll be in the dark for a while yet over the Silkies.

 

My large fowl blue Poland, about the size of a blackbird still :lol:

Dustin Hoffman is reminding me of Les Dawson in the 3rd pic :lol: Sorry :) I am completely rubbish at sexing. He/she has quite a girly pom pom (ie quite round and relatively even length feathers, not spiky) but on other hand is it just because its not grown out yet?? I think you have a lovely selection of youngsters there :D

No idea on the Poland and silkies. The lavenders ..... hmmn the first piccie makes one have a redder comb than the others but the individual piccies look a lot like girls to me. I will go for both girls for now.

 

Here are my two lavenders:

 

I think this is Lily (girl):

This is Ben Korma (boy):

My boy has more side burns than top knot if you know what I mean and is also starting to make the occasional crowing noise :lol: They are both 8 weeks.

If she does turn out to be a she I'll be interested in how big she gets and what her eggs are like - size and productivity wise. I only have the bants and they're fab layers of largish eggs considering their small size. Very consistent as well.

Lovely :D

 

Poland - Girl :? Very 'girly' stance, like Daphne said a rounded crest.

 

Araucana 1 - Boy

 

Araucana 2 - Girl

 

Silkie 1 - Boy as it has the bigger tuft as I earlier described how my silkie breeder friends tells them apart from the girls as they have a bigger tuft

 

Silkie 2 - Girl, girly stance, small tuft etc.

 

Thats just my guesses!

 

Good Luck

Tom
