I was out looking at birds this morning and realized a few things. Some of the blue hens have amazing lacing. The bantam black chick I thought was a pullet is actually a cockerel but is turning out good. One of the new hens we got crows and hasnt laid an egg since we got her in August. And the cock we got when he was molting that was going to be a yard bird due to a bad tail is looking great now that he is coming out of the molt.
I really need to get some pics, so far only 3-4 birds look decent, the others still show lots of pin feathers and are ratty/tailless

Do anyone's cocks have multiple spurs? If so, pictures please, thanks!
I have several beautiful Sumateras, but none with multiple spurs...

all of the SHOULD. But all dont. Mine average about 3 per leg. I'm like FMP waiting on them to finish their molt, then plan to take some new pics of them. Will get them on then and be sure to get a few spur shots while I'm at it​

All of our cocks must have a minimum of 3 spurs per leg.
I got a few pics of the dun pair and a decent blue batam hen, working on uploading pics as we speak
