omgosh I got the little boys having Karate-practice ALL over lol in every brooder and every pen at the moment....we are growing out ALOT (maybe 150) chicks to select our breeding stock from...this means there are tons of roos!! They are cute right now but yikes thats is a lot We had about 20 marans and I know we have 12 roos or more....sigh. They are SQ but lemme tell ya a MAran baby is uggggglyy as a juvie...
they look like dino-raptors! half nekid little things yikes! and then there is this biggun almost fully feathered and has a nice red comb bigger than them and is prolly to feathered on his legs already...but he is still little and impressive...I'm gonna start picking him up and messin with him in case he is "the one"
