We will be building a pen for the Dominiques where the sides will be high enough for the Game to not see him and with metal dug down so predators and the game cock cannot dig in.
We plan on letting them free-range when we are home and building a large screened enclosure for them the rest of the time. Within that pen we plan on building two breeding pens. This will have a larger attached indoor coop as well. The other coop will be similar.
My neighobor is allowing us to keep them on his place with leg bands until we can build ours. I swung by this morning to give them a tomato the ants got into and some other veggies. They really likes that breakfast! I also got to see the hens he picked out for me, and Wow! Stunning hens!
One is lighter in color with a darker head and one is the spangle. The other 3 are a medium brown. The cock looks just like his dad with a little more white. Very pretty! I decided to name him Holiday, after Doc Holiday. His ladies are Clemintine, Rosemary, Norma Jane, Betty Sue, and Mae West.
I am so happy today!
