Hi everyone!

[Bonnie G]

Yeah, your rooster is not a black sexlink, maybe some kind of leghorn?

Yes! You have a pair, the one on the left is a male, right is female.

Are you going to keep you mosaic male?

Interesting, I’ll have to do some more research! Thank you! Got him under very weird circumstances… No idea where he came from or what he is. But he’s a good Roo, protected my flock from some hawks (although there was a very close call). However, he has been a little cranky lately…

Definitely going to keep the mosaic no matter what! I’ve got 12 more hens on the way, so I’ll have 19 in total. So a second Roo is probably needed Thanks for confirming the ID!

You have some VERY beautiful chickens!! How many do you have in total? What kinds of roosters do you have? And are those chicks incubated from your own flock? Winter is always a bad time.. I’ve got my flock on coop lockdown until there’s more prey for the hawks in the spring… They free range and won’t be a meal if I can help it!

What are the breeds of your new 12?

Thank you!!

I think I have 32.. and still want more

I have 2 olive eggers
1 old english game bantam
1 Rhode island red x blue laced red Wyandotte

Yes! They are, I was expecting at least 6 but the others died

We had a cat come to our house and it killed 1 rooster and 1 of my hens and it didn't even eat them. Just killed them for sport...

That is very smart! We love our chickens
