2nd hatch

I hatched this batch about 7 weeks ago give or take. out of 3 faverolles sadly only 1 is a hen ( yellow one at the back .The cream legbars did better at 3 hens ( 2 are sold and not shown here )
The 1 cock pictured at the front middle Again il be keeping the 2 hens here and guess the lads will be meat birds :(

Nice looking birds. Shame about the lack of hens :-(

If you rear the boys properly - you'll have some fantastic tasting meat!
