Yes he has changed so much over just the last 2 weeks

Just took these pics of Roosty tonight. I counted again and Fluffy (the chick) is 11 weeks today and Roosty was 10 or 11 weeks when the chick hatched making Roosty 21-22 weeks today.

He's making a magnificent transformation. He took his time, but now he must be in puberty.

It's almost hard to believe it's the same chicken... his so mild mannered to I really hope he stays that way

 

[oldhenlikesdogs]

He's definitely gonna be gorgeous. Hopefully he does remain mild mannered. I prefer when they are late bloomers, they tend to be easy going, but you never know.
