should i caponize my little chick

[AceSierra]

No, because you just have a huge rooster with no testosterone.

my problem with a rooster is I just dont want it climbing all over ace and hurting her I dont mind crowing or if they get big

 

[MysteryChicken]

is it their brains sticking out those ones I find creepy lol

No, they closed skulls not open skulls.

I am not a silkie professional, but that looks like a vaulted skull which is the brain not covered in with a skull. It is definitely not a comb and I advise you not to squish it or poke is roughly.

I think the skull does cover it.

 

[AceSierra]

No, they closed skulls not open skulls.

oh ok just a large comb?

Make a bachelor pad? It's an area that roosters are kept separate from hens.

Um...I don’t think there are any chickens with exposed brains. Pics?

Their brains aren't exposed they are "exposed" they are not securely tucked in the skull but gave skin wrapped over them. This makes them really exposed and you can find some real life horror stories on bcy to prove the fact. Trust me, you don't want to see.

First of all, he will not hurt her. How can normal roosters mate with hens if they are injuring them? Second of all, a rooster will not be aggressive if they are raised right.

I think the skull is closed, but thinner than normal.

No, but it is a bump on the skull.

Some have large combs, others have small.
