    My "chicken math" story!

    One day I will get more.....but I want to move out of state onto more land. So, for now I will keep a couple of the roosters with my other hens.

    My "chicken math" story!

    I brought my first "flock" home back in early April. 3 Speckled Sussex, 3 Silver Laced Wyandottes, and 3 Golden Laced Wyandottes. One GL turned out to be a rooster, but he's a good roo, and all is going well. I'm getting 5 eggs every day from them. Then, I found Blue Laced Red...

    7 week BLR Wyandotte....cockerels?

    Ok, I'm fairly convinced now (after all the helpful input from members here!) that I only have one cockerel...... This is another the same age, for comparison

    7 week BLR Wyandotte....cockerels?

    Funny! I have a bossy SLW, but she is nowhere near as bossy as this one! In fact, a Speckled Sussex is actually the top hen of that flock. She's always the first to go to the coop at night, and the first to come out in the morning. Its so cool to see the "pecking order".

    7 week BLR Wyandotte....cockerels?

    7 week BLR Wyandotte....cockerels?

    I have two I believe are cockerels, but I wanted to get more informed opinions. The darker one in the top picture sure seems to have larger wattles than the other dark ones. And the splash is just kind of a jerk.....I realize that isnt a good reason to believe its a cockerel, but call it...

    Walter, the Flemish Giant!

    Walter is very different from Harvey, the mini lop. He is ALWAYS exploring and checking things out. He'll come up to me. Harvey is very laid back and not as personable. I love them both, but its really interesting to see the differences in personalities.

    Do I have a rooster?

    Thank you! I thought it might be, and I am actually pleased to have a rooster. Now to come up with a name for him...

    Do I have a rooster?

    I have 3 Golden Laced Wyandottes,and one of them has a more red comb developing. Could this be a rooster? S/he is the one right in the middle in the picture.
