    Quiz: What Kind of Winter Chicken Keeper Are You?

    Entry #2 Old English Game Bantams "GameBoy" & his best girl "Tiny Dancer" I think these kids were only about 10 wks old, (8 mos now) but are still best buds. (Eating sour cream off the wall.) I left the Faverolles fluff-butt in the photo for scale.

    Actually, it's almost daily! But I don't think there's been a successful mating. He uses her head as a mounting block, backs up and slides off before any part of him can make it anywhere under her tail at all:lau. His feathered feet are not his friends. Comedy daily....
