    Whiting True Blue info

    By "nasty" do you mean MEAN ? I ask because we ended up butchering our beautiful blue Whiting rooster. He was mean and I would not go into the coop alone with him in there. I have 5 baby Whiting roos that have just started trying to crow and they will end up with the same fate if they are mean...

    What breed am I?

    I'm not sure. Probably a dumb question but can you tell comb type at just a few days old?

    Whiting True Blue info

    I just wanted to follow up with you about the combs. I have two 12 week old Whiting cockerels and they both have pea combs, which is surprising because they say single combs in the magazine. They are pretty friendly too. Not as sweet as the Red Stars but much friendlier than the White Leghorns.

    McMurray order of Red Stars and Whiting True Blues

    I had the same issue on both of my previous orders they said shipped but never updated the tracking info until they were picked up by me at the post office. I have another order of Whitings coming this week but no shipping notification yet.
