That would be awesome. He does sleep in the nest box!That's part of the reason! Maybe Ginger will be a broody rooster one day.
So beautiful!!!Smokey's 3 chicks are now nearly 9 weeks old, just started roosting together - mostly due to Chickaletta kicking them out of the nesting coop but really it was about time anyway.
1 obviously a cockerel, 1 almost sure a pullet and other possibly a pullet I think..

Ginger (the silent roo)
The black ones will be normal feathered. Not sure about the white one The eggs came from a mixed pen so It’s hard to tell if the lack of toes is because it's mixed or because of a deformityMy youngest Silkies:
Candy - around 3wks old

I think they can have 4 toes, or 6, and not be deformed. I think the silkie feathering and dark skin could be a better sign. The black one looks so cute to meThe black ones will be normal feathered.

Thanks! One (the female) has a similair personality as her mom- flighty and doesn't like to be held. The other one (male) is the total opposite. He likes to be held, he's curious and overall SILKIEI think they can have 4 toes, or 6, and not be deformed. I think the silkie feathering and dark skin could be a better sign.

Isn't this a fifth toe?The black ones will be normal feathered. Not sure about the white one The eggs came from a mixed pen so It’s hard to tell if the lack of toes is because it's mixed or because of a deformity
