Oops, my bad, it's DINAH. I was helping my memory by using visuals. Since she has a yellow leg ring I thought "blond" and associated Dinah Shore. But somehow I mixed her up with Doris Day.

I'll give Dinah your regards!
This is good to know. I haven't owned a printer in years, my boss told me it was okay to use our printer. I will lose that privilege at the end of November, when I retire.

I've only dealt with 4 roosters since 2023 when I brought home Sussex chicks.
Joel was brooder raised, no adult hens. He was friendly with me except as a cockerel, but I don't recall anything besides a peck or so as his hormones raged. He became a good roo, took care of his gals...
So far I lost Joel at 13 months (seizure) and I found Martha dead under the roost at 2. Hannah and Rahab will be 3 in February, they're my oldest.
I don't know their average lifespan, but as they're not a production breed, should be longer.
