Nice to hear from you again Waupoos, that seems to be a large percentage of cockerels, I guess it's a good heads up to order more pullets then you want, because some of the will be cockerels?

Any pictures?

Yes just a bummer when you pay for sexed birds...and now well I am thinking I should keep the roosters to make more chickens! I will take some pictures this afternoon as it is coup clean out tome. On the up side I ordered straight run Mottled Javas and those that survived are all girls! and I ended up with a 50/50 split of the Delawares.

I was going to suggest that, just didn't want to be called an enabler

Well turns out I have 2 speckled sussex roos and only 3 pullets! A bit of a pee off to say the least especially when paying for sexed chicks. Here are the Gold Laced Wyandottes, they were hatched around April 30th and I am pleased with them and getting a rooster was not that bad in this case.
