I have accumulated them over time. Uncles, friends, aunts, Nana, and my parents. And most of them turn on. There are a couple missing from there because I turned them on a couple days ago and haven't put them back.
Hopefully you can rehome Twig into somewhere that is not Freezer Camp. For most of my spare boys that is the outcome, if I cannot rehome them.
You mean you have EVEN MORE than that??!
The boys all sounded off alerts, the girls in the open ran for overhead cover and EVERYONE froze.........We had a Kestrel get on of our chickens when we first moved here. She couldn't even lift the hen...she tried eating it right there....my husband was nearby and ran over, but she was already dead. Squeezed her neck with her talons and don't know exactly what caused the death - suffocation or exsanguination - or a combo. The girl was a decent sized hen, too, not one of my smaller ones......Kestrels are fearless.

Actually, I am amazed at how often chickens will walk on/over/through or crawl under other chickens if it suits their fancy!
Without much regard for status, either. It's only when the HARD STARE followed by the PECK comes out that the lower ranked give way.Hard to bathe when siblings are hogging the dust bath

I was outside gathering eggs when I heard the commotion of their fight. He had Branched penned up in the corner of the coop where he could not get away. I came very close to wringing his neck when I tossed him off of him. I like Twig, but he will not kill his daddy.
Stay out of it kiddo
