Oh my naughty young roo sure deliver look at the three cuties he created Mom was a green egger and my roo is a blue egger. He was supposed to be a hen but somehow they made a mistake when they sexed him so since he was supposed to lay blue eggs we call him Blue.That makes a lot more sense. My young orpington cockerel was hatched last summer, so this spring all of his orp pullets looked like naked necks. They finally grew back their feathers and are looking good again. Sadly, the hens he's covering are not giving me fertile eggs. He's been mating, but not mastered it yet. My orps mature very slowly, and it took his father a full year before his females were fertile.
I put hen saddles on a few pullets, because the boys always have their favorites.
