So few Lavenders have good tails, especially the males. I would use your black, rather than breed to a poorly feathered lavender male.
my understanding is english orpingtons are not finished growing till they are a year & a 1/2 oldI suspect that the other girl has more tail feathers coming.
For sure.My rooster that I was ready to give to the first person that would take him at 5 months,my understanding is english orpingtons are not finished growing till they are a year & a 1/2 old
i plan to do a test hatch with my new to me sportsman
i figured a couple dozen eggs from my britts would be a good test
i also want to make sure that my splash rooster is "getting the job done" with his ladies
I am pretty sure the one on the left will get her stiff tail feathers in and then you wont have to pick between them! I have a pullet that for the longest time only had one stiff tail feather. It awkwardly stuck out from her cochinesque tail for the longest time. We called her Alfalfa (from The Little Rascals) till suddenly, one morning I noticed the others had come in - it was a Christmas Miracle! Anyway, she looks fine now and I think yours will too...
good luck and have fun!!First show of the season tomorrow, here in North/Central FL. The heat is gone, the humidity is down, and I am left with a bunch of half naked chickens....Two of the hens I entered suddenly have no tails, so I am down to three entries. I will be putting the Imported against the half American and let the judges decide....
