So I brought the brown one to the farm today. This farmer agreed to let me know if he is too aggressive or not. Pretty much to let me know how his temperament is over the coming weeks. This was a super difficult decision but the brown guy mated more aggressively than the leghorn, which could...

@Callender Girl @Isadora @Silkie Princess I need to decide by tomorrow night who I’m keeping. The other one is going to a friends farm with the silkie mix. But I’m so torn on who to get rid of. I love the look of the leghorn, and see him chasing the girls less, but feel like the girls don’t like...

So none of the hens will sleep next to the leghorn. They keep trying to go into the bigger coops and the hens keep chasing both of the roosters out. But the leghorns hatch mates won’t sleep next to it anymore. Does that mean he’s the one I should get rid of? That he’s more aggressive

I noticed that the leghorn seems to be more dominant out of the two roosters. If I could have it my way I’d keep both these guys. Neither are really aggressive. Some of the more dominant and older hens even boss them around. They are trying to figure out mating and are chasing some of the girls...

That’s a tough question. I’m not sure actually. I look at the brown one and am reminded of Fuzzy in a good way but I also miss him. So both? My husband is leaning towards the leghorn mix too. What do you like about him? So far they don’t have much of a personality. They’re really low in the...

So I’m going to have to pick a favorite to keep from these two. I like all of them, and would keep them if I could, but I’m mostly torn between the leghorn mix and the brown EE. The leghorn has the check puffs but the brown one is almost identical to Fuzzy. Except for the cheek puffs and leg...

This has been the most rooster heavy I think I’ve ever hatched out. Usually it’s hen favored or even. This time out of 9 eggs I got two girls. But that’s okay. I wanted boys. And one is silkied. Pretty sure it’s a Fuzzy baby too. The tail feathers are the same color, I know doesn’t mean much...

Thanks. Some of the hens I’m pretty sure are Fuzzy babies too. But i cant be as sure as i am with the boys. You know i never thought i would, or could, miss a chicken so much. But I’m glad i had some of his eggs to hatch out. The leghorn definitely feels the most like Fuzzy. And my...

All grown up. Ended up with five roosters and four hens. Two roosters are for sure Fuzzys. The brown one with no tail and the leghorn with cheek puffs. Those are the two i kept. The other three, the black ones, went to a farmer. These are the newest photos i have of them. They just got moved...

These guys are getting so big. I can already tell, for the most part, who the boys are. There’s some curiosity pecking when I’m in the room with them. But nothing too dangerous. They run away when I go to peck them back or when I reach out for them. There’s three that do most of the pecking and...

I agree! The silkie is a mystery to me. I know Fuzzy mated with one of the silkies but I have three silkie hens. All their eggs look the same. But since the baby might be getting a straight comb I’m leaning towards it being a Fuzzy baby. I can’t wait to see their full feathering.

So many boys to choose from! I won’t be re-homing any, or picking my new Fuzzy, until they have grown and I know their personality. I have been more hands off with these guys. Hopefully it’ll help with any potential human aggression issues. The only time I get nipped at is when they’re being...

Definitely have quite a few roosters here. I can’t wait to see their adult feathering. I have high hopes for one looking like Fuzzy. The brown one that loves the camera. Lots of pictures today. They are just too cute. Being with them is just pure joy. The silkie one might still be a Fuzzy baby...

Decided to share my procreate video on YouTube of the drawing I did for Fuzzy. It made me and my husband cry. I think it was the music we chose… and just seeing his face.

Update on the babes: I can tell one is a rooster for sure already. He has the thickest legs and is the most aggressive, chest bumping and flying all over, with the other chicks. The one in the back is the one I’m pretty sure is a boy. They’ve outgrown their small brooder space and now have...

These are the chicks that hatched out of my Fuzzy eggs. So far there’s only two I’m questioning the father on. One has five toes and is feathering out silkied. Not Fuzzies baby. At the time I believe Bop was my only silkie male mating. So more than likely his. The chick hatched out of an olive...

The twin egg didn’t make it, of course. But three Fuzzy eggs have hatched out so far. Three more are pipping. I had to open the incubator to remove the three chicks. It was getting really cramped in there and I didn’t want them hurting the other eggs. They were all sitting on top of two that...

Candled all 18 eggs today. Only 4 were empty. I also found one that I thought was dead but I’m pretty sure is twins. I know the survival rate for these are super low but how great would that be? Two Fuzzy babies from one egg. 🥰 Here are some pictures of the eggs. The white ones anyway. The rest...

Yeah. I find dogs barking more annoying than my roosters crowing. I actually have gotten so used to my roosters crowing in the morning that if they don’t I don’t wake up. They are literally my alarm. I love it. I never thought I would but there it is.

I am reluctant to try the no crow collars again. I had them on two of my other roosters and promptly took them off. My roosters don’t need to wear them since roosters are not illegal where I live. But my neighbor is complaining and a major pain. I’m a huge softee and all of my tattoos mean...
