well my grand father a game bird master used to put the in his palm and lift them up by there beak in the air... if they reacted all crazy they were hens if they just hung they were cocks... he was 90% accurate!!!t They look kind of grown but you might still be able to try that or you can always try wing sexing! open up there wings if they have two layers of wings hen of they have one then its a cock!

I just got a new one. Need's a trim though!
Weighs 5 pounds. Gonna replace the Law I already have, that is too big.(6-1/2)

Was out trying to get some better photos today, but only had time to take a few photos of the three way cross which didn't turn out so well. I tried to take a few photos of the other stag i caught (1/2 Wingate brown red, 1/4 shelton, 1/4 morgan whitehackle), but couldn't get him to be still so i took a video instead. Few pics of the shamo as well for people who may be wondering how big they can get.

This is a 9-10 month old Shamo stag i received from Prariechiken. I measured that pen after the photo/video and it is exactly 21". I would say the shamo is about 22-23" right now when he stands straight up, as though you can't see in the photo well he is clearly peeking over the pen about 2 inches (maybe 3).

The wingate cross stag, is about 8, maybe 9 months. http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=2099HrFb%2FqvcoXGdPCjAAYh4l5k2TGxc

ETA: Nice grey by the way Chief, is he a law?

I love how the shamo keeps trying to poke his head in that cage to get at the other stag's food.

I really like that american game stag, btw. Nice colors!

Thank you Daniel.
I really think he'll look good once I get him dubbed. No sir he is not a Law. He is a pure Shorty Bullock & unrelated to the Pure Bullock hen I have. The Bullock hen is paired with my Law rooster now & laying. So for now I'm going to pair this rooster with the Law's full sister. After that I'll put the two Bullocks together & raise some of them pure.

Ahh, ok. Yeah after a dubbing he'll look awesome i think. The grey in your avatar the law cock?

[Chief]

Yes the avatar is the Law. My Dad gave them to me, he's had them for years. I'm not sure but I thought the Law Grey were yellow legged. The ones my Dad has all come slate or green legged. He may have snuck a little hatch in there way back when. But they started out as Law and are back to pure at this point.
