How long to keep birds together?

Where did your birds come from?

while we’re at it what do you think of this one? It’s got waddles turning pink/red and I think I see some saddle feathers poking through. But I attached a picture of its brother the same age (photo not the greatest) and he is full blow cockerel already. @aart @3KillerBs

I'm not sure about the gender, but if that one turns out to be a male, I would not keep it for breeding. It would be pretty frustrating if you ended up with a line of birds where all males are that slow to show their gender!

Thanks! I was wondering about that. So far the little guy in the third pic is in the lead for being kept. He has a fun curious personality and looks very handsome for how old he is. It’s subject to change however if he starts getting nasty.

They’re a tractor supply special haha. I’m not looking for show quality just a backyard flock for the family to enjoy and get eggs
