Thank you! I find this really reassuring. They were pretty brutal, to the point where I was pretty scared for the roosters, but this definitely gives me hope. I am bummed about how many roosters we ended up with, so I would love to be able to keep one. We’ll definitely give it a shot.
I attached some better comb photos below. And now I’m battling the realization that I most likely have 2 cockerels and one pullet within the silkies…:(
what do you think?
That’s the one my partner wants to keep. He is huge! But so far our 8 month old hens are not being very nice to any of the roosters at all, so I’m just not sure if we’re going to be able to keep one!
Hi. We have five 11-14 week old chickens in question. I’m really hoping to be able to keep at least a few but it’s seeming like many of them are turning out to be cockerels…
These are the chickens I’d like to get opinions on:
1. Brahma
2. Smaller white silkie
3. Black silkie. Second white...
