Junebuggena, his breeder said that his father was a splash Brahma and Orpington, and she thinks there's another breed in there somewhere. The only difference between him and my cockerel is that he had a couple big grey markings on his sides. When I showed a picture of them to the breeder, she...

Thank you Ridgerunner for all that information! That's extremely helpful! I wish the cockerel would do a little dance, but he just tries to sneak up to the hens and they've gotten pretty quick with giving him the look! LOL! The poor pullet just tries to get away from him and into the bushes...

Ok, here are some pictures I just took today. The first one has the 3 older hens in the front and the cockerel behind them. The next picture shows the pullet behind the blue Orpington hen. The blue Orpington hen thinks she's in charge of the flock, but the one that's really in charge is the Blue...

They will be 5 months old on the 3rd. Yes, I'm sure! I saw them right after they hatched out while they were under my broody hen! That was July 3rd. When one of my Wyandottes went broody, I bought fertile eggs from a local breeder. I put them under my broody hen and she sat on them for 21...

I would hate to have to separate him. I figure, if I did that, then he won't learn any manners from the older girls. I let them free range in our yard and there are lots of bushes and trees. When he's being really obnoxious to the pullet, she will run into the bushes where he cant try to breed...

I only have 4 hens. 2 of the hens are a little over 2 years old. The 3rd hen is almost 2 years old. The 2 oldest ones are Wyandottes and the almost 2 year old is a Orpington. The pullet and Rooster are both going to be 5 months old on the 3rd of Dec. and they are both barnyard mixes. I think the...

He is twice her size! She's pretty close in size to the other hens. I'll see if I can take their picture with them together tomorrow.

He's a big boy! But thought at 4 1/2 months old, it was to soon for him to try to breed the girls. I hope he will calm down some. Here he is next to his sister. Sorry the picture quality isn't very good. Hard to get them on the move. :-)

Is it unusual for a 4 1/2 month old rooster to be trying to breed all the hens? He started trying to breed his "sister" (Not related but hatched on the same day and raised together by my broody hen.) He tried to jump on the 2 oldest hens, but they let him have it! He still tries to sneak up...
