Thanks for the reply! Thankfully if it is a rooster I have someone who will wants him. It is a beautiful bird so I would hate to give it up but I can't have another roo!
Thanks for the feedback. Nothing about its appearance says rooster to me but its only eight weeks or so. My big roo went after it with his feet instead of pecking and the juvenile attacked a wild dove that ended up in the run. Just not sure what to think at this point.
Thanks again.
Here we go again! Since that Easter Egger from last Spring turned out to be a Rooster I purchased what I hoped to be an Easter Egger hen just recently but I am starting to suspect I have another rooster. I can't identify any saddle feather yet but it has exhibited some behaviors and my full...
I'm gonna try this program. I purchased a salt box style coop and now want to build a larger run around it. This will be a helpful tool to figure out how to do that and make it compliment the coop! Wish me luck!

I live in "Hokie" Land near Blacksburg. This is my first flock and my Silkies are the sweetest of them all! So much so I want to have a separate flock of just Silkies.
Meet my Silkie, Anastasia! She's a sweetie! This is my first flock and Anastasia along with a little "blue" silkie were a gift! They are hands down the sweetest of my flock!
