These are the poults

Here’s pictures of the Tom and hens. Any idea what they are if not Sweetgrass or fall fire? I appreciate the help.

Thank you for the response. I only have the one Tom which is the Bourbon Red and I purchased him from ideal. However, the hens were from a private breeder so I guess there is a chance that they aren’t 100% what he said they are. He told me Sweetgrass or they also are known as fall fire.

I just hatched four poults from a Bourbon red Tom and Sweetgrass hens. Two of the poults are white and two look like chipmunks. I was wondering if anyone knows if these are sex linked.

Owning animals you are not permitted to have just because you want them and will eventually be forced to surrender is selfish and cruel to the animal. If you care for animals the way you say you do then save your money, buy a home where you are permitted to own the animals you want, and do it...

I’m looking to purchase some heritage breed turkeys in south eastern pa. Anyone selling?

Thanks a lot for the responses and info!

What are some indicators? I’m terrible at telling with Easter eggers

Got this Easter egger and not sure if we have a cockerel or pullet. Any guesses?

Trying to figure out what the breeds are of these two Roos I received as “packing peanuts” could be. Any guesses?

Thank you for the reference. Unfortunately they don’t have any of the bourbon reds at this time but I will definitely keep them in mind for future ordering.

Anyone in south eastern Pa selling any bourbon red turkeys? Ordered 10 from a hatchery and all but 2 died and now I have 3 more roosters that were “ packing peanuts”. I don’t want to try and order from them again and not have them live and gain more roosters.

Ok, that’s what I thought. Thanks

We received a few random chicks from ideal poultry as “ packing peanuts “ for the turkeys we ordered. I was wondering what this little chipmunk could be. I think Easter egger. Any thoughts?

Ordered 10 bourbon reds from ideal poultry and 6 were doa. 2 more died the next day… now we have 4 chicks of random breeds that we didn’t order that were “packing peanuts”…. Of course the kids love them so they’ll eventually be added to our flock. I guess it’s just an excuse for another coop...
