Other hens, yes, but not roosters.

I’m so sorry! Chickens are an adventure every minute aren’t they? You did the right thing as hard as that was.Samuel is gone.
I was putting it off. I saw him go into the chicks' brooder, not after the food but towards the chicks.
Then just a few minutes ago I was standing outside the coop and heard the chicks frantic cheeps. I saw Samuel chasing the chicks around the coop, not just a short chase but a pursuit.
I took him out behind the shed and removed him from the equation.
Now I want to go cry somewhere.

I think blue and purple bands are girls, black chick and green band are boys, LC not sure.I would say two look like girls and a third is possible.
Why did they all have to get yellow legs?!?Roll Call!
