Wow, I haven't been on BYC for a while! I feel so guilty since I began this thread...
Those are some gorgeous birds! If you need to refer to what they should look like/the standard, I believe I have it copied to the first post.

Well, where'd you get her? Every hatchery I've ever seen with Creves (including Sandhill) has white earlobe Creves. The leg mites, I don't know anything about other than there is medicine for that.
I rescued her from the auction along with two other polish (BCW, White)
So I'm thinking that my "Creve" isnt actually purebred... she now has large white earlobes, and I'm debating sending her to the auction. She isn't laying, has TERRIBLE leg mites (I've already tried to get rid of them, no success!), and isn't friendly....
Well, if you don't get any to hatch, or at least not many, you can go to the first page of this thread. There is a list of breeders, including BBB and RFF! There's quite a chance they'll have extras.

Ha! Me too! I'd load up the kids and drive right over!
At 3 days old, not all of them will probably have veining yet, I don't think. I would wait awhile to chuck any eggs
That's good! It seems like my creve is ALWAYS molting, however she always lays!!!! Her whole neck is bare, and her back is starting to molt, too. I hope this isn't permanent!!!!!!! If so, I might have to get rid off her. Yes, she really is that ugly. If she was really friendly, I might...
Mine is kind of skiddish, but that's because she wasn't socialized at all as a chick. Infact, I bought her at an animal auction!!!
On the first page, I have posted many links, and some may be helpful!!!!!! Especially mypetchicken.com
