How lucky of you! I wish I was this lucky with my silkies

Same, when I got my SR reds I got 10 cockerels and 6 pullets.

Those eyes look feral as ___ . I use to have cats, or rather, they had me, but they only wanted a free meal and to drop off their unwanted litters of kittens.

I feel your pain. My dad's having similar issues he keeps wanting to spend time with the chickens, but one of my cockerels doesn't tolerate 'strangers' and I'm worried he'll get spurred.
