Well... I got this one as a year old. I picked him from 10 others. I had a lot to chose from and I had to pick the one that best fit the bill and I couldn't spend all day doing it.

All but two had been in cages for 4 months and it showed. They were pretty cranky. I picked him for his body type and his comb. He can't be trusted around my small sons. But, he and I have a "talk" every now and then (I pick him up and grab his comb) and he behaves for a while. I think he would have been better if I had raised him from a chick. I will find out when I raise some of my own. By the way, tiffanyh, no fair you just hatched more of my chicks than me!
