A 7 pound rooster? Well, you should of seen his Light Brahma cross son.....


Edit: SonS. There were two light Brahma crosses, one Buff Orpington cross, and one Barred Rock cross.

Are you sure he's not 7 stone

And I got another one done before bed. Tomorrow I shall continue to make an army!

This variegated yarn also has maroon and gold stripes...those will be lovely for chickens too.

"No need to apologize! I, emperor of the desert, is very large!"

"I'll be bigger than you one day!"

"*whispers* Where is my cockerel control...."

"My brothers were big, like 11 pounds...."

Playing with genetics had me thinking about my first adventure into "where did this come from?" Re: Storm and her 3 feather crest. Google the genetics of a crested chicken and found this:

Part 2 (link at bottom of Part 1)

Edit: Storm is still and anomaly as neither parent had a crest, while a grandparent did.

Wow! Just wow! Thanks for sharing - this really makes me wonder about Martina/Floyd and what happened to him. I am now convinced that he was a victim of a brain injury from his squabbling with his brothers. After all he had that huge coiffe of his.

Oh, by the way, I am once again grounded. I might not be in here for a few days. The only reason I am on here right now is because I told my mom that I was using my phone for homework. She never needs to find out…

Well, I’ll check in when I can. I missed Mugs Monday so here.View attachment 3764361
Happy Twofer Tuesday!
