I have 1 pair of BCMs, 10 months old. He's my only cockerel, we're trying to breed some olive eggers using my Ameracauna pullets. Out of the 6 offspring that are now 3 1/2 months old, 2 were males . . . and quite tender. My BCM pullet is raising 2 SS and 8 BCM chicks; did have 9 but we're under serious hawk attacks the last 4 days. Going to get more next time a hen goes broody, maybe Feb or March. We're trying to follow the French SOP. His comb has more than 5 points and his tail angle is greater than 60 degr when he's excited, otherwise he's awesome. And she looks picture-perfect to me!I have one Blue Copper, one White Splash, and three Black Copper.
