That is unique, what is she?

Pumpkin. I'll take a better pic tomorrow. She is pretty.

Those are my wife's birds. She just had to have em. I believe it was Flypen that made me get them for her. Lol

Hey, if she wants something, by all means I'd do it for my wife. Especially since she helps you all the time like my wife does.

Lol I'm just joking. That stag ain't shaping up to be too bad at all. Had to pen him awhile back. Got a few more young stags that are becoming a pain a little earlier than id like them to as well.
My wife is going out to WI for a week toward the end of the month. I'll be hurting then believe me.

Hey everyone,

I have a question, I'm sure I know the answer, but have to ask anyway. I took in a rejected chick from a hen that I believe to be American game fowl possibly mixed. (Hen was brooding in a bordering avocado grove when we moved in.) I really believed that Ducky was a pullet. From what I read the chickss wing feathers said girl, she did what a female is supposed to do with her feet supposedly, and when compared to others from the brood ducky looked like a girl. We were noticing that our white leg horn Green Mallard is starting to get his spurs, and our australorp Goose is too. Then my be noticed that Ducky is.
So my question is can anot American game fowl pullet/hen have spurs?

Fingers crossed

@roosterhavoc & @sdm111 Thank you, you have made my week!!

My experience with chickens over the last few months has definitely been an intensive course, with quite a bit of heart ache and tears. Giggle too, but loosing them to others dogs, my dogs trying to play with them, and everything else has been hard. I'm happy to get good news for a change.
