Care to take a guess on mine?

Could it be that the black shoulder are a pair? the one (I figure the male) has green scales coming in at the back base of his neck, and is overall darkre. the other (i assume female) is not shiny in the slightest, just a multitude of grey and browns, What say you? pair?

 

[Arbor]

Yep, a pair!

do females ever display? I saw the girl with her tail up today dancing a bit.

Yes they do ,
can you spot the female in this young group?

Here is my white hen fanning with the young boys

yep i see her, had to look at the wings lol.

I got very nervous about it because when i added in another couple peas, she was the first to display but i wasn't 100% if that was what i saw or not, then i was out there a few days later and she was dancing and keeping step with the other 2 boys.

they are only 3-5 months old(for the whole flock) i was surprized to see mating today, but the stranger part was that the 2 that were mating were indian blue males? is that common? i assume its a dominance thing?

When my Cameo hens display they remind me of turkeys. Their tails seem so even all around. Wish they would do it more often.

Look like this? LOL I thought exactly the same thing when i was taking these yesterday.













I love her.

Right now my Cameo hens are prettier than my males and are doing more strutting. When I crossed the yard two were strutting and they did look like beautiful turkeys. They must know watermelon is coming to an end because they acted so delighted tonight when I took them a watermelon.

I wish my white hen would strut like that. I have never seen her strut. Beautiful Zaz.
