The Pearsons Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 But do you think they are girls or boys or one of each??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 What breed are they? Some are identifiable from hatching, others aren't. I know with gingernut rangers that females are ginger, males are white. Not sure about others though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pearsons Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 They are just what hatched from the eggs I was given by the farmwife. The hens there are all mixed breed but all lay well most of the year. They have to or they end up on the table But the selectiveness has meant that only the good layers and hardy hens live on..... Cross breeding by elimination! Helen in Hume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
