Sapphire Gem cockerel

He does have a beautiful comb and wattles! ❤

I am SO happy he is working out, he's too pretty to have to rehome should he have turned out crotchety.

If he had been nasty he wouldn't be so handsome in my eyes.

Is that a full Sapphire Gem? He looks like he has some barred rock in him...

They are a mix with barred rock in the breeding. It's Hoover Hatchery's mix for them so I don't know what else is in there.

He sure has grown up to be a fine looking boy, I am SO glad you kept him!

Thank you!
I look forward to seeing how he turns out when fully grown. Those saddle feathers still have a ways to go I think.

Yes I bet he gets bigger and prettier with age!

I have a boy that is supposed to be a Gem also. Not sure but he looks similar! He is pretty laid back and has only bit me once. He is 19 weeks old. Your boy is beautiful!
