Well I got a nice confirmation on 27 Dec 💕 At least one of my little beauties is a hen 🤩

Yay 🥳 Very excited about not having to find new homes for any cockerels! I love their markings, just beautiful to me ❤️ Thank you ☺️

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup I really hope so too 🤞🤞

Yes, I will need to watch a YouTube guide I think first 🙂👍 Haven't trimmed feathers before!! 😬 When checking them at night, I hold back their head feathers, and they are pretty excited to see all round them ☺️ so will definitely get ready for the trimming! Thanks ❤️

I am following this closely! ☺️ I just picked up two 8wk old polish large fowl hens on Saturday and desperately hoping the breeder is right that they are female... They are soooo cute, brilliant characters so far ❤️ Here are my two:

These are the two lovely little "ladies" I collected on Saturday. I think I will have to wait longer to confirm gender though. The breeder has bred polish LF and bantam for a long time and seems to know her stuff... Really hope she is right about them being female!! They are adorable and so...

Thank you 🙂 Don't have any experience with growers yet, so was a bit worried about being naive with the gender identification. Will get some pictures tomorrow when I get them home 👍

Hello 👋 I am planning to collect 2 new additions for my mixed flock tomorrow morning and having spoken to the breeder, they tell me that the growers are 8 weeks old rather than 11 weeks old but definitely female. Can you tell females and males apart from 8 weeks old? Really can't have any...

Welcome Debs :frow

Yes, the door works well, but bit stuck on how to build it in a way that the feed doesn't stick/block the door. Hence still at planning stage :)
