One of the prettiest RIR girls I've laid eyes on!

My vote is in for hen! 100% lovely red hen who will be laying big brown eggs soon. The comb and wattles get really big and bright red right before they start laying some hens will get them a little bigger than others, sorta like boobs! They come in all shapes and sizes!

'Red' Roosters typically get long curved tail feathers and all mine have sounded like a strangled cat while trying to learn to crow.

She is a Production Red (not a Rhode Island Red) and yes she is a Hen.

SO sweet, lets me scoop her up and carry her around!

I'm jealous

Mine won't let me pick them up easily...except one of the Buff Rocks that I think may be a roo! And he/she only lets me pet the crop area- nothing else or he just looks at me like I'm SOOOOO RUDE!!!! LOL ....but he doesn't run away. Mine are 13 weeks already. I think having so many made them all a little hard to get friendly with, though I have tried to get them to tame up a bit. Oh well. Still a blast to watch though, huh?!
