Gammas Bearded Babies
Crossing the Road
I'm sorry to bombard yall with "silly" questions, but I've read, watched, and researched. Sometimes i just gotta come out and ask:
This polish cockrel is 12 weeks old...began crowing 2 or 3 weeks ago. He's Sometimes fine with the 3 silkies I have then other times he is chasing them down.
This afternoon I saw him try to mount one (they are all 12 weeks old) and then bit a wad of feathers out as she scooted on her way and ran.
I have suspected my black silkie may also be a cockrel...but told it is usually too early to tell with silkies. I watched this silkie go up to one of my pullet and just bite a wad of feathers from her tail!
Is this mating? Have I got 2 cockrels? What do I do with em?
