Hi this is my first post. Have been an avid forum reader for 18 months since we got our two lovely Isa Brown girls.
4 months ago I took a chance and brought an unsexed Silkie ? Cross chick.... Well turned out to be a Rooster. But by the time we figured this out he was much loved.
Butter sits on my lap everyday for hugs and preening, he is a sweet natured funny little fellow.
He had a terrible time with the girls in the beginning but after the most amazing ninja style battle with head chook Nuggets he now tries to have his manly rights with them on a regular basis. Not sure of the success rate as they are twice his size and he falls off most of the time. It's quite funny to watch ... Poor guy.
The only con is the 5 am crowing... We live in suburbia and I am waiting for the neighbours to complain.
My plan is to put him in a cat box in the dark shed over night and see if we can delay the moring chorus until at least 7 am...
