My 3 month Old LF salmon favorelle is tiny. He is only a little bit larger that a female bantam Cochin of the same age. I also have 2 BC Marans that are at least twice his size. Is it normal for SF cockerel to take much longer to grow and mature then other breeds?
Hi genesis (LF SF) is about got month only and is still very small compared to othe breeds even when you compared to hens from different breeds. He is about 3 month now and he seems like he stopped growing or is growing at a very slow rate. Are SFroosters known for growing slow and taking a long...
