This handsome one year old needs a new home. I am reducing my flock and don't have the heart to have him turned into chicken stock. He was hatched within my flock last summer and hand raised. He's not aggressive, in fact he's a tad skittish and will very gently eat from your hand. His daddy...
Thank you for the reply. I'm actually not surprised to hear it either. I'm just a little concerned with the the creamy head spot as in most black sex link it would mean it's a boy. Guess I'll just wait and see.

Thank you again!!!

11 weeks ago I hatched some EE chicks. One started to crow a few weeks ago so I sent him on his way along with a playmate. I have these two left, both green legged. I'd love to keep the cream colored one, but only if I can identify it's a SHE and not a HE. Can any one shed some light on...
I have a 16 week old Columbian Wyandotte rooster that needs to find a good home. He is not blending well with my dominant EE roo. The little man is friendly and has already started to crow. He is definately a leader in the making and protectively watches over the gals he was raised with. He...
