All right. I'm not real sure where to ask this question, so just thought I'd throw this out there. Looks like a lot of y'all hatch and sell chicks for, I'm assuming, some extra income and the joy of hatching! Welllll, although my main purpose for hatching chicks this June was to obtain some blue...

Huh. I've named my girls Missy, River Song, and Osgood One and Osgood Two. Only a Doctor Who fan would understand :D .

You should be! What I'm getting from following all the action in the hatch-a-longs and other threads it seems to me that getting chicks from shipped eggs is about like winning the lottery! Congratulations!

I, too, have the same one and it drove me nuts trying to keep the temp stable. I had to keep tinkering with it throughout the incubation even though the instructions pretty much said not to. If I'd paid attention to the instructions I'd have either cooked or frozen those eggs. And that turner...

Personally I'd say that's a cockerel, but after having several pullets turn into roos I wouldn't trust anything I said at this point.

kelseyk, FWIW, I pm'ed Blue Ribbon Farms via FaceBook and he seems as concerned about this as I am. To quote, after I'd asked if there were any other such complaints or observations: "No your actually the first. Which worry's me. I try to only sell show quality eggs, a few of mine are not. But...

Yup. My thoughts as well. The one actually looks pretty good, at least to my unpracticed eye. Given that the eggs these chicks came from were all remarkably similar, and the hens as best I can remember remarkably similar as well, I'm really wondering if another roo didn't spend some time in...

Never said they weren't cute :lol:! Just that they're questionable Legbars. They already know that when mum opens the gate there are likely to be treats in the offing.

Not sure exactly where to put this, but it is following along from the questionability of these chickens' breeding so I thought this might be a logical spot. This is an "unlisted" video, so hopefully it'll show up. You can definitely see the "beards" on a couple of them, the one without a crest...
