I love seeing your birds. They are so pretty.

Feels like fall here too. We are already prepping for winter here. It will be here before you know it. I'm foolishly still hatching bantams and waiting for an order of chicks this week.

Can't wait to see if any males start going at it again. :pop

I am now faced with the unpleasant task of getting rid of all my young cockerels. If no one is interested in them, I'll have to do the deed

- it's hard because the boys are all so friendly.

If I still have them at 5-7 weeks, you'll see it again. Never fails!

Once I had nine BR cockerels once that were approaching thirteen weeks old. I put them all up for $2 each and I know what they went for, but we were running out of space as they got so big. Generally, I'm able to find homes for the Brahma males, especially this color variety. Folks love a big sweet rooster.

They are eating a LOT.

Four week old "Bash-lettes", 2 boys and 2 girls, I do believe, and one of the males is Baby Huey! You can't miss His Tallness. Scruffy Dinosaur Stage has commenced.
