Glais is being very attentive!

"Push! Breathe, push!"

"Push! Breathe, push!"

And she looks about as receptive to advice as I was at similar times!

@Shadrach @Perris

My husband asked (after first looking at the wattles and wondering if Glais was maybe a pelican) what breed he is, and I answered that I think he’s a deliberate mutt/mixed-breed, as part of Perris's ongoing trials.

If so, do we have any opinions as to the various breeds that have gone into this cockerel? (Or is he a rooster now?)

What Shad isn't telling us is that every evening before he leaves, he places tiny little weights on those wattles, elongating them gently every day.

No explanation for that monster comb, though.
