grannys gone and done it

[rIrs roost]

I have a small old roo that trips over his. free ranging is good . some never range . some are mean those need to be trimmed .

They can get too long and injure the hens or make the roo walk funny.

Thanks both of y'all. I'm not against it. I was just wondering. Gonna have to keep an eye on my roo. He's friendly but I don't want him to hurt the hens or trip over em

maybe his spots was painted on and he has molted them off. was this a first molt ? possible just hatchery Q or dare I say mix ? If its first molt I wouldnt look for them to come back . doenst mean the gene is not there for some pretty babies though. Let us know what they say ??

Second molt I think. It was really a bad one, though. I got a better pic of the babies. The hen is solid black amerecauna and the roo was pure RIR. Maybe that's making the chocolate tones? The amer on the right is for sure a cockerel. I can see his hackles coming in. And the RIR is a cockerel. Not sure about the one on the left, but leaning towards roo on that one, too.

Pretty sure both those EEs are cockerels. Pullets don't get combs like that.

That's what I'm afraid of... There's a clean-face black one that's definitely a pullet. I can't remember the fourth.

Too bad, camping. Those are nice looking birds. You can almost tell the 3 cockerels by their behavior when you took the picture. All 3 have heads up, alert to the camera. I would assume all the rear ends we see are attached to pullets!
