We have Fertility! Now if more than one pullet will lay, lol.
I had a couple of my LF chocolate Orp/Ameraucana hens in the pen with them giving the girls a break while these youngsters mature and I have a couple of their eggs in the bator now that are fertile too.....I finally saw him breeding today. Wasn't really certain till now.
My see a bunch all at once soon. I've found that cockerels usually don't breed pullets until they're mature enough to lay. I only saw him breed one pullet so that may be the one laying now. I'll update if I get any chicks hatched.
I moved the chocolate hens (they lay blue eggs) out to the grow out pen, I think they have had a little break at least. Their cockerel chicks will all carry chocolate, that could be pretty interesting, chocolate barred breed that lays blue eggs.
