    best rooster breed

    well one of my 6 week old black sex links ( which I thought was a barred rock ) made a crowing type noise the last few mornings and its comb and waddle are deep red where the others are yellow. It has been the best chick out of 20 for friendliness to humans. What are the odds he'll stay that way??

    just a funny pic

    HA normally it would be a beer on that chair! I have different breeds, when i crouch down, the white ones like to jump on my shoulders and hang out. They are the happiest to be handled. The red ones are the most curious and are OK with being handled. And the black ones are the biggest bug...

    2 wk old chicks

    Well they are getting bigger and losing their babychick looks. They have colourful wingfeathers and their tailfeathers are coming in. I am not sure they will fit in their crate (3X4) in 2 more weeks.....

    chicks 1st time outside

    yes celsius, that's about 79degrees F. I'm not 100% sure of the breeds yet, the white ones might be Columbian rock X R.I.R. They are from Frey's in St.Jacob's, Ontario. One would catch a worm, then run around with the other chicks chasing her, until another would get it and become the chasee...
