    Yep, they take turns being dominant the goofy darn things and the female goose hangs with the ducks and the males are breeding with her. I am at a lose as what to do. They all free range during the day and coop up at night together.

    My production reds looked like yours at that age and within a week to 2 weeks they were red. My hen is sweet but the roos were mean to other birds and had to go. I sent them to the freezer at 15 weeks. I didn't order them they were added for extra warmth suppose to be all males but I got one girl :)
