Yep, all of them brown cockerels, what luck

Sorry, inside joke.

Nice looking birds. You are getting close and when you get them, you going to get plenty.

They look like they're maturing nicely but combs and wattles will get more swollen and red as they get closer to lay. The white with red bird is male, I assume you have a few mixed in for fertile eggs or to help with pecking order?

Yes the male came in with them from day old..once they start laying I will move the male from the pen house..

Sorry! I thought you only had one hen! What gorgeous birds, just be sure they can free range a bit or have more room. Seems that is a big tight for them. Chickens need vitamins from the sun.

Do you have a market for this many eggs? I get about six dozen a week and I can hardly give them away.

And by the way. Welcome to BYC!

I was wondering if you would explain. Still made me laugh though

If that's the only male, he has his work cut out for him!

Yes egg is so costly over here…A lot of people already asking for egg.
