Plymouth Rock thread!

[DMRippy]

Well my GSBR is STILL NOT giving me fertile eggs..... he is going to get bumped to a bachelor pen. Time for the Partridge Rock to try his hand till the other guy gets his hormones

If anyone has some ideas or tip to get him to do his JOB let me know. He hatched about the first of the year.
