Hi everyone!
Do you think Cockerels have more character than hens?

I don't know about cockerels but my girls have very distinct personalities. I can't tell several of them apart anymore until I interact with them. Then I see the differences.

Lucy is very jealous, she pecks at anyone I pet or hold. Ivy is the loner of the bunch. And Gertie is a nut job! She can't go into the coop on the first try. She always ends up circling it two or three times before she makes it in.

Aww, they're lovely!

I have a pair of lavender Pekins. The rooster is has a brilliant personality and is a real softie, I love him to bits...His hen however, is generally quiet and isn't interested in human interaction.

Unfortunately my rooster is getting very old :( I know he won't last forever so I'm trying to decide if I'd like another rooster or a couple of hens to make a trio with my existing hen.

(PS: what breed are your girls? They have very big, red combs for ladies! They're beutiful)

Barred Plymouth Rocks. Very friendly, and very good layers. They follow us everywhere we go. They're 8 months old now. We got them at 3 days old
