Rooster bit me...

Sounds good, but just for the record (referring to your post #13), if Bill is a rooster he was never a pullet. He was/is a cockerel. The males are cockerels until age 1, then they are called roosters, cocks or stags. And females are pullets until age 1, then they are called hens.

Thanks for the tip! Then I guess these girls are all pullets and he is a cockerel since they were born early May.

For the dust bath issue in snow, you can always supplement with a kitty litter pan and a mis of soil and diatomaceous earth
