Still chillin' with my peeps
My first batches of store-bought chicks were supposed to be all pullets. Out of the 6 RIRs, there were no roos. Out of the 6 Buff Orpingtons, there was one roo. Out of the two barred rocks, one was a roo. Out of the 7 Australorps, none was a roo. Sometimes you just get a roo they missed...
If the BR roo hadn't started really wanting to challenge my Alpha RIR roo I already had, I would not have sold him. I was blessed to be able to sell him to a lady who wanted to use him in a breeding project so he's living happily with his own little Australorp harem. The BO roo is not as aggressive, so he gets along OK with the big RIR. Just don't order straight run!!!
