Show off your roosters - Page 24

Honestly, most of it was just luck of the draw. They don't really get any special care; we've had our first frosts and they're still outside in the tractors. Basic chicken rations and clean water daily. As for buying them, luck of the draw in that as well. I knew nothing about chickens when I bought my RJFs, the Rosecombs were the last of the ladies stock as she was getting out of the breed, and the Sebright I stumbled across at a sale. All my other banties are hatchery stock.

 

But it honestly fills me with pride to hear that somebody likes my birds. Haha. Next year and/or over the winter I hope to seriously start hatching as well.

Your Tarzan is growing up to be the handsome guy! Don't you love the little soft tuft of feathers at the base of the tail? What is that about? Don't think I see that on my hens. And your Seabright...WOW!!! Spectacular! Thanks for sharing your pictures.

I have no idea what those tufts are all about, but I love them. I love watching my birds grow up. Tarzan and his girls were pretty much at sexual maturity when I bought them, but they had some filling-out to do. And clearly, he's doing that. Haha. Love him to death. And thanks; stumbled upon Sebastian by chance, and snatched him up the moment I found him. No hesitation.

Beautiful bird! Looks like he has pheasant in him wink.png. That tail...wow! That must be where the Phoenix name comes in, huh? And his soft tufts of feathers are copious!
