Think that is what he was talking about with the rooster not cooperating.

Just reread the post, I believe you are right, my bad!!!! And the post makes so much more sense too.

wyandottes would be soo much easier but I've decided to make it so much harder by making a goal of laced birds with laced tails(like sebrights). Seems such a minor detail but genetically there's a major difference between laced vs non laced tails. Main reason is I simply like laced tails better but also there are barely any laced large fowl with laced tails so they'd buck the trend a little bit.

Making this even harder by wanting to make them hen-feathered too.. because it helps the roo have good lacing all over like the hens.

two of the laced NN lay green eggs. hope to carry this along also. Hen feathered, large, laced with laced tails, green egg laying NN, let's see what else I might want to throw in... ha!

Make him watch the CSI episode where the bad guys (I think gals actually) insert an electrical device into the ehem "back end" give a little shock, all for the same purpose, and tell him that is next if he doesn't cooperate better.

OPPPPS this was for the AI post, think I need to restart this day.

and really hope the neighbors haven't seen me trying to convince the roo to donate......

Trying to get an idea of how you would go about this.... but I am thinking it might not be a path I want to go down!

But I do applaud your efforts to get him to cooperate!

I've seen that in action- on a show about preserving eggs/sperm from endangered species for the future. It certainly works on rhino and cheetah....

the non-fun part: iirc it works by stimulating the prostate. birds don't have a prostate, so it wouldn't work.. but the roo doesn't have to know about that...

I've done AI before, NN roo with sebright hen, he could not or wouldn't breed her. He was very easy and generous so it can be straightfoward.. apparently just isn't with the sussex roo.

Do you eat your birds and do they taste good?

Yes and yes. It's how culls and extra roos from projects are dealt with.

Well maybe he is a "metro" roo and needs a little romancing first!!!!!!

Haha yeah it's a subject too easy to have fun with but this is a forum so trying to be careful here also. I do have a plan for later- after all the eggs from him and LF NN are collected, will have him by himself with no access to hens. Perhaps the problem is he has several hens so his supply is not there..? The first roo I collected from for AI was by himself then had the sebright hen with him.. but the eggs kept coming up all infertile. Suspect he was not able to breed her. Anyways thanks!

Plenty of short videos on youtube.
