Wow, those were really good. I read them, and they were very clear and easy to understand. I will probably be using these soon....

I just submitted an article! As a newbie to backyard chicken keeping, I had no idea what to do when one of our little chicks grew unexpectedly into a rooster. Hopefully this will help anyone who finds themselves with a rooster they didn't plan on.

Great article, but in keeping with your first caption, I'd label the second "100 percent chance of being a rooster."

Ha ha! That was my rooster that had to go. I kept hoping it was a pullet, but looking back at that picture, it's so obvious.
