I caution you in buying a older bird. It may just be mine, but my Sultan roo so use to be very sweet and liked bring picked up has now taken to flogging us.
Well mine is defiantly a roo. He emitted a gargled crow at me this weekend. Poor guy has it rough right now. I got some D'uccle and had to move him out of the coop because I don't want any mixed chicks. he's the only roo in there. I pulled on of his Polish pullet friend Ozzy to go with him...
LOL I have to post a pic of My Einstein...
The Silver Laced crest looks nothing like his. Its longer than my WCB pullet but has rounded feathers. Like I said it is my first Bearded. There are several of us over on the Polish thread having trouble figuring ours out and the all look a...
Well if you look at the polish up close the feathers are rounded. The lacing make it look rooish, but Its crest is uniform and the feathers are round. No pointy or hackle feathers either. It looks more like my Polish pullets than roo, but is the only bearded I have. I have posted pictures of it...
No eggs or crowing yet.... No crazy feathers either. I was really windy yesterday when I took those. It is just getting to looking better after all the rain we had this summer.
Updated pics. She is fill out nicely and looking better than the last pics I posted when it wouldn't stop raining. Do y'all still say pullet?
The family photo.... They just posed like this when I was out taking pics.
Yes my place looks like there has been a pillow fight going on. Egg production is way down too. I have been looking all over fo hidden nest and can't find any.
I have to get a calendar out and count up the weeks. I think I should be getting eggs from Lady Gaga and Madonna if not now very soon. I've been looking in the bushes and woods trying to find hidden nest. My layer flock egg count is way down too.
She was dirty as ever with mud all over her feet, leggs, belly and tail. I started letting them free range and the wet grass has cleaned them up a lot.
Thank goodness ity a girl... She shall be named Pipa after Kelly Ripa who said if she didn't live in the city she would have chickens...
Oh law I knew y'all would ask for that. We have gotten so much rain my poor birds are a mess especially the white. I will get one this afternoon when I get home. Just don't hold their dirty feet against me.
I have one Sultan chick that was given to me as a day old at the feed store. I'm mot sure if its a pullet ir Cockeral. Is there any sign to look for? It's about 3 months old.
