Thought you all might like to see how the project is coming along.
The cockerels are BIG boys. They have grown fast and are at the really awkward stage at the moment. All the cockerels have some feathers on their shanks.
As you can see some appear to be staying straight blue and some are showing a fair amount to red.

Some of the pullets. They are quite feminine looking. Not much red showing in them, just a bit so far. I am liking the body shape of them. I would like a more stern brow on them, but I can work on that. The pullets are showing very little shank feathering.

I am looking forward to seeing the egg colour from them. That is what I will be working on the most in the next few years now.
