Looks like you have luck like mine-more boys than girls
They do grow fast. For anyone struggling with attitudes from cockerels or roos- take your duccles OUT of the cages or low, small coops! Try putting them in a regular sized, regular height coop and see what happens. Not only are chickens like dogs- they sense your anxiety when you just know that boy over there is going to attack. I was more confident stepping into the regular coop therefore after the first stand off (of course there has to be a time or two) none of the boys come after me. That is a HUGE change from having to fight just to feex them or give more water. IF there was an egg? Well, sometimes it wasn't worth the fight! Lol. Now I can stoop down to the nest box without being attacked. Lesson learned: bantam doesn't always mean half the space. Regular size coop=happier me and happier bantams.
