These babies were sold to me as pullets, but I’m wondering if a few may be roosters. Mainly because they’re more aggressive, and my Calico Princess is really large. The Blue Laced Red Wyandotte tucks her (or his) butt in a lot for whatever reason but is also more aggressive. Let me know what you...
Just wanted to update on this. Chicks are 7.5 weeks old and the Roosters are so pretty. These are the sweetest chickens I’ve
