My rooster are all going into their teen age years. They are all attacking each other. My BCM and my Blue Bar rooster. Marans and Blue Bars are in different coops. The Marans have grown up together and there are plenty of hens for everyone. They had bloody comb and wattles yesterday...
Thank You chooks man I'm was hoping to be able to breed her with my wheaten roo. I'm working on trying to get some Blue Copper marans as well as the one I have now and more of them.
First two are a couple of my wheatons second two are one of my BC hens next one is a BC hen and the last one is a Cuckoo.
I will get picture of Sheldon and Leonard tomorrow I have head shot I will try to pick them out tonight or get different one tomorrow.
