I had a pet skunk when i was a kid, pretty much acted like a cat. Ate catfood & used a litterbox. You could pick him up by the scruff of his neck, shake your finger & say Daniel be ashamed & he would cover his eyes with his paws. I took him to school for 4th grade show & tell. That was fun. Now...

Thanks, he did seem to have a tuxedo look. That's also him in my avatar around 3 weeks. I was confused about his age, was thinking he was 12 weeks but he's 9 weeks. It was a long day yesterday. Sorry

1st pics of my Blue Marans pullet, I'm told she's mossy and clean shanked. thats ok right now i just want a nice dark egg.ETA to add shes about 9 weeks old
I'm no expert by far but if its 7 weeks old with that much red on comb and wattles , when i compare to mine i'd say HE is a cockrel. But this is my very first flock ever so i could be wrong.
