Have no idea of the breeding of this fellow .. he was the 1st rooster I kept a few yrs ago .. EXTREMELY aggressive .. so moved him on to a friend who keeps various game bantams.
2 chicks hatched on the w/e! We set 6 eggs under one hen, others couldn't make up their minds which nest to go broody in & kept leaving the eggs due to bad storms. 3 sister hens selected the one nest, which had the eggs. Of the 6 eggs, we had: 1 broke, 2 no good, 1 'dead in shell' & 2 chicks.
My 1st pic. This is a view towards the back of the 'house yard' to the chook shed & run (on the right) & the potting shed, the seedling annex in the middle & the green house. The shot was taken with a rock wall of an area just outside the house, in the foreground. We have LOTS of rocks!
