You have beautiful chickens! I can't tell my leghorns apart so no names, my RIR is Rosie (clever I know ;)) still decided what to name the roo!

x2 on the Learning Center and also on Drumstick diva's info on the risk of over-breeding with 2 roos for a small flock. If you have questions, always feel free to ask there are a lot of helpful members here and a ton of information.

Thanks for joining us!

Looks like we were posting about the same time. Getting more girls will help your roo to hen ratio!
