BO Roos

[kaseythomas86]

These are very hard to figure out. My EE was so easy to tell he was a Roo! I will keep everyone posted!!

#1 was crowing this morning

I am pretty sure the others are Roos also! I picked out 4BO chicks from tractor supply and looks like all 4 were Roos!! I'm still going to wait on crowing from the other 2 before I rehome them.

I have 2 bo roos and they are so sweet and tame. So I keep them. I want babies

 

[kaseythomas86]

I would keep them but it looks like all if my hen are going to be EEs so I'm going to keep the EE Roo instead in hopes that I get babies that lay blue eggs

Sorry to hear about the crowing

I really was hoping I was wrong, but they just looked so 'roo-ish' to me! It knocks my confidence though when everyone else is saying "pullet!'

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you but TBH I am still thinking you have 3 boys there.

In some good news, I have a BO cockerel and he is an absolute delight. Unless you have a large flock though, you don't want more than one rooster, and I see you want to breed the EE's anyway.

Good luck with the re-homing process, and please keep me updated about the other 2 suspects!

Thank so much for taking time to help me figure them out. I am hoping the others are hens but I still think they are Roos too. But this gives me the opportunity to get new hens

I am going to pick up 2 Barred Rock Pullets tonight!

Hehe! Another victim of chicken math!

 

[kaseythomas86]

You can say that again I went for 2 chicks and thought what the heck how about 3

 

[emmyeagle]

Lol! We lost a pullet the other day. Thank goodness feed stores are out of chicks!! I don't have anymore room anyways until next year.

Sorry to hear you lost a chicken.
