Welcome to BYC! You’ll find lots of people on here that love their poultry just like you

Just enjoy them and don’t think about that part

Thankfully, cuz the feed store guys think I'm nuts.

Yeah you're not wrong...

Welcome to BYC. Have you prepared a place to seperate your two cockerels? It's best to seperate them early, before their hormones start acting up.

Ah yes it's been on my mind a lot lately. I don't know how to keep them both long term honestly, but when they were 6 weeks old Baba went after Corney something fierce. It's like Baba woke up and said sorry Corney but today's your day to die! I made one nest box in the coop into a bird jail and separated the run with a stretch of garden fence. Then to maintain social bonds I rotated the females as companions, 3 & 3 with each male. I was able to reintegrate them all 36 hours later. They seem inseparable now, these boys. They even sleep next to each other. I do have spur covers on their way, I'm not totally naive but I am hopeful. I'll consider your advice absolutely. How old do you think for Wyandottes? We chose them for their docile nature...
