My gf has 7 or so young roosters to give away. They are all mixed with various hens but all look amazing.
Here is the dad, Monroe.
And here are several shots of them.
They were hatched earlier this year. She has to get rid of them and would prefer not to "off" them...
Hey I ended up giving Rhodey to a local friend of mine who had been wanting him for a while. However......I have a broody GLW that should be hatching in the next week or so. After she hatches I'm going to introduce her to my gf's GLW roo Monroe, and hopefully end up with a bunch of fertile GLW...
I hope this is the right section for this. My gf has an absolutely beautiful GLW roo named Monroe, and I have Jane....an always broody GLW hen. I don't know enough about the purity of bloodlines and what not to know what to expect if we were to mate them, but I would loooooove to see what kind...
My gf's flock has shrunk so she only needs one of her two GLW's. His name is Rhodey and I will try to post some new pics of him later this afternoon. He is currently at my property in Broadway, NC.
Walked outside into the front yard about an hour ago...I see my Speckled Sussex just sitting there, presumably just hanging out, and then she moves.
Mind blown. We had no idea that she was sitting on eggs somewhere, and we still don't know where she had them hid. She has 15 and the father...
Jane has been broody under our large back porch for several weeks now, and I made the mistake of not moving her to somewhere a little more accessible. Long story short, we managed to get her most current hatchlings from her and into the brooder box. I would love her to raise the chicks, however...
I know. We have enough extra hardware around here that I could probably make a little run just for her. I honestly wasn't expecting her eggs to even be fertile considering I have not once seen her get mounted by either rooster in a year. Now I know.
Yeap, she has been coming out once a day or so to eat. We figured out a way to remove just the section above her nest to grab her if need be without much of a problem. I am going to block everything off so nothing can get under there but leave her an enclosure with feed and water. I can actually...
Happy New year everyone!(Yes its been a while since I posted) Lol. Long story short, my GLW has been under our back deck for 3 weeks...and to the exact day....I hear peeping.
She is so far up under the deck we can't get to her without pulling up floor boards. I don't know how long it has been...
Okay. Update after observing her.
1. Her balance is bad. She stands still, makes little attempt at running away. I pick her, put her down and she stumbles forward a few inches before righting herself.
2. Her left eye...it has a blank stare. No blinking, and no looking around has if to look...
Well. I found where the EE was discovered dead. Pile of feathers, I'm thinking it might have been a dog...maybe that dog. He isn't going to be around much longer.
Just messed with the wyandotte again, I think she can see. I snuck up behind her, put my hand in front of her and she reacted. She...
