    Egg bound for 2 months...

    About 2 months ago my little girl Meepers started acting strange, a little lethargic,, sitting a lot, not being her normal matriarch self.

    Polish Roo or Hen??

    Well looks like he has the horns for his crest like everyone talks about. He is such a flighty strange character. the other little roos pick on him. I am hoping once they get outside for good they can confirm their place in the flock and just chill.

    Polish Roo or Hen??

    There are no signs of any red or a wattle at all. the other 2 have big ones as you can see. but the polish I think taker longer. the other 2 pick on him/her so i am thinking he might be a roo just very mellow? and there is no aggression from him to the other 2

    All 4 of my chickens come when I have some treats in hand, I call their name and they know to jump up to grab their treat. each one knows their name and knows its time to jump up when I call it. They are the smartest little things.
