i wanna be a cowboy, baby ( HELL YEAH )
It should be obvious right now and I thought I had it right as this guy was in the cockerel pen for butchering, but they’re being picked on really bad lately by the others ( I’m aware that in all cockerels/roosters flocks, the least dominant one will be picked on/mounted but this just seems more intense ) I found them tonight upside down and stuck between some pallets in the barn and when I looked them over, I couldn’t see any male hackle or saddle feathers. Not to mention they don’t have a sickle tail feather starting like the others the same age. Though, the comb seems huge but it’s mom was one of my leghorns and they have big combs just like this guy’s.
I’m honestly stumped right now and I don’t want to mistakenly butcher a pullet. I’ll try to take better pictures tomorrow in better light.
