Looks like a rooster to me.

Here's one of the little cockerels I got from Kathy. Here's to wishing for a better camera and a better operator.

This thread needs a jump. How are your young barred rocks doing. Any pictures of big birds males with nice tails?? bob

I don't have any big birds yet but it won't be long now.....This is a pic of some of my NH's and BR's that came from Matt. I also have 10 more BR's that are about 6-7 weeks old that came from Jeremy.

Thanks for looking,
Chris

Thnaks for the pictures. I see Matts birds often was there two weeks ago. His New Hampshire males where stunning and liked his Barred Rock females. Any more pictures? bob

 

[Chris Herzog]

Well Bob, I guess no one wants to post any pics for you...

Anyway, you didn't say that they had to be good pics right? These guys were all hatched at the end of February.




The one in the back is the one that I'm kind of liking right now although this is not a great pic of him....

Nice pictures how did you make your roosts. Please explane they are very nice.bob

Thanks Bob! Witch roosts were you talking about? The roosts that I have in the run are just some old 4x4’s that I cut to match the distance of the 4x4’s that hold the roof up. I then screwed some 2x4’s to the ends of the 4x4 and to the post in the coop. I didn’t want anything to be in the way on the ground. This is some old pics but you can see them better….



The roosts inside the coop were basically made just like a wide ladder. The only thing somewhat fancy that I did with that was I rounded the edges of the 2x4’s with a router.

I like how you put the roosts parallel to the sides....very intelligent design for cleaning/maintenance and separation for those that can't get along. Thanks for posting these pictures.
