In the Brooder
(I'm new to the site so have mercy!)
I purchased 15 female Polish chicks from a hatchery online and received a Polish cockerel (non-bearded), a Buff Orpington pullet, and 12 Polish pullets (2 bearded). Next year I hope to receive both male and female bantams and a whole new set (breed unknown) pullets. I am in 4H and participate in showmanship every year. I usually use a pullet, but since I have a cockerel, I was wondering if there was a certain difference in the way each gender does in showmanship. Which gender does the judge prefer?
Thanks in advance!
