Rusty fresh off scrapping with Oreo. He received a few comb and wattle injuries, but you “should’ve seen the other guy!” 🤣- Mimi13

Rusty was becoming the dominant male. He was winning over most of the older hens, that once whipped his butt. I had already had him tested and tagged for NPIP certification.- Mimi13

Still a very sweet cockerel. During his “teen” years, I did not handle him much at all. Mostly only on the roost at night.- Mimi13

Rusty at 10 weeks old
The only two cockerels still out with the flock. At this time I still wasn’t sure whether I wanted two cockerels or just one. So Rusty and “Oreo” were the two that made the first cut. The other five had been put in the bachelor run (aka processing pen) for several weeks to fill out.- Mimi13

At 10 weeks old, Rusty finally was named. His black and white barred feathers began looking a bit rusty. That was his name!- Mimi13

This picture shows the entire group of his hatch mates, all 8 of them, and 7 are cockerels. The only pullet is the White Rock/Welsummer cross in the front.- Mimi13

He and a hatch mate are taking their lives in their own hands eating with the BIG GIRLS! Barred Rock, Georgia Girl, to the right of the feeder and Dominique, Lena, to the left. My three barred birds.- Mimi13
