I'm keeping this one rooster.

I'm an unconventional lady. Raised up on motor coss races and horse braking. Dad kinda treated me like boy. You can do anything you want and then some.

Aww I love that. I have always been a tom-boy too. Not very girly, wallering around with chickens and dogs outside. I love to fish, and usually out-fish my husband. lol Played in the creek a lot as a kid catching crawdads and minners (minnows). I do like pink though.

He is bottom of the rooster order when he's out. Tiny OEGB roosters put him in his place by just running at him.

I would say low testosterone then. Banie roosters are usually up to their eyeballs in testosterone and act 10 feet tall and bullet proof. If you leave him with the hens for a few months by himself without any competition, he might man up.

He's been with the hens sence Christmas.

They are cool looking birds for sure!

He may be hopeless then. Any fertile eggs at all? If not, cull.

The silver one will be replacing the Spitzhauben or my silver Spitzhauben will be. Sigh. I have the gold for my Chamois Spitzhauben hens. May have to make an order in the future from Cackle.

Sold some and all 18 where duds. It looked like they had the bulls eye when cracked tho. I'm letting a hen sit some now and we'll see.

Can you get another rooster like him?

Sorry I just read where you have the other backup roosters.
