That's amazing... what are you going to do with her?

She has a sport cockerel waiting on her. I'm praying for girls.

Girl/girls? Or more he/girls?

Looking for a sport hen to breed back to, but I'd take 1-2 more like her. She's a gift.

Working on the boys. Most gentle roosters ever. They're just lacking in hackle and saddle. And tail, but we're making progress.

That's awesome... and isn't that a bit ironic? What your boys lack, she has in abundance...

Hoping she can pass it to the boys. Must admit I don't understand the genetics. She's always been female in appearance. I never thought she might be a roo.

Saddle and hackle I could understand, but the lines of male feathering on the breast are strange, almost chimeric.

Overabundance of testosterone type deal, maybe? I dunno... don't think there's much to explain why that happens considering how rare it happens...

it's all just surface differences...

The most likely answer is excess testosterone.

I'm just that guy that asks "but why?"

Needless to say, I've gotten in trouble many, many times.

You and me both, my friend! You and me both!

I think the only way to answer it is to breed it out.

I can do that.

Can't wait to see!
