Thanks, Kathryn. I had never even thought about the little 10 week old cockerel crowing-he'll be 10 weeks on Monday, actually- was waiting for my Delawegger male to crow, which he just did day before yesterday for the first time at 11 weeks old. So, when this little fella belted one out, then another and was hit with the full force of Daddy,our mouths hung open; he yelled, then mama stepped in to shield him. Molly is an amazing broody, still mothering the kid at 10 weeks of age.
Adding more pics. Here is Little Man, who is Carly's son. I may sell him with Lucy as a pair. She is just two weeks older than he is. Looks like JJ was right-Molly must have been plucking his beard. Looks to be growing back in now:
Aubrey, here is your namesake with his "Purple Princess", Shadow. You're nicer than he is, LOL. He loathes the camera. He molted out his long sickles so his tail looks a tad straight up right now.
The new recruits, Misty and Opal (Don't look, JJ!), Lucy and Mina.
