Official BYC Poll: Do You Keep a Rooster?

[Mylied]

I have one adult frizzled cochin rooster. I'm hoping one of my araucana babies is a cockerel. 3 of 4 of my serama babies are cockerels. I'll keep one of those. Plus I'm getting a silkie rooster on the weekend. I'm not a huge fan of roosters but I do loves hatching babies, so they come and go here. If they annoy me, they go.

I thought you were supposed to know everything.

Whilst a flattering myth, it is a myth nonetheless.

2 of our 6 female sexed chicks turned out to be males.

2 of my 8 did also

If the poll allowed multiple choices, I would have. I also missed having the option of with rum.

I've never had any but if I can fulfill my dreams of living on a farm in the country then I'll definitely have some. Maybe even a bachelor pad or rooster rescue.

Here are my guys. The white leghorn is Tino, the Light Brahma is Little Gray, and the JG we got rid of was Dragon.

I don't know how many roosters I have. They're handsome, though. I have two each of Buff and Partridge Chanteclers (mixed, straight run order). A couple Lt Brahma & a bunch of cute mutts. As long as they don't cause trouble I guess I'll keep the ones I like best. Otherwise they're nice as dinner guests.

Do all your guys and gals live and sleep together?
