He’s called Stripey and he’s really growing into a magnificently beautiful bird. I’m not sure if it’s typical of his breed, but he’s so social and confident, has been jumping into my knee since 3 months old, to eat treats out of my hand, and as been performing his role as reponsible leader since then too. He’s always running the length of the garden to status check on all the hens, always super alert and busy in his duties, as well as always seduces his hens with a dance before he mates them, and will not mate if they resist.
here is a video from when he was 3 months old, when sparring with his rooster sibling. i’ll take photo of him crowing tomorrow and post again! definitely my favourite of the entire flock
i found a video which reviews them.
