Yes.... and she's still Trouble! She has fun pushing the orp pullets around. Even the big orp roo obeys her commands. Lately she's been thinking about going broody and very vocal about everything. A pullet in HER nest box and will get kicked out whenever Trouble decides to sit there. (She's not staying in the nest for more than a couple hours, so she's not serious about it.)
We now have a serama roo. Our "useless bantams" (my loving nickname for them) have their own little coop. Trouble's already queen of the big coop, so I decided to leave her with the BIG girls. DD tried to let the serama roo visit & breed Trouble. He did his best little wing dances, but Trouble beat him up for all his efforts.
So sad you had such terrible luck last year. I really hope your Spitz turns out to be female. They are sweet birds. A lot less feisty than the Sebrights. They lay pretty well, have a great WOW factor, are rare & unique, and can be trained to fly up to your arm. DD did this the 1st year we had Spitzes. I warned her not to teach it to our big, fat orpingtons, though. Can you imagine a big 8-10 lb bird attempting to land on your arm!?
