They've got all this room for roosting and yet....

@ChooksNQuilts Wow they just keep getting more beautiful! I adore that last cockerel especially!! I, too, love the unique ones and the "mutts". I got my first crew of mixed chicks also at Tractor Supply seven weeks ago. Now I'm apparently running an orphanage for random chicks.

That child is super duper cute!!!! Grad to see your teaching them young!!!

Thanks! Unfortunately she knows exactly how cute she is.

She's two and her brother is three. They're both excellent little helpers!!

I have to probably find a home for him because my husband doesn’t want the noise of a bunch of roosters.
That’s why those two cockerels don’t have names.
Maybe I’ll rehome my bantam Brahma, Hector?
He’s not my favorite...my bantam Cochin, Frodo, is my favorite and he’s only 7 weeks old too.
I’ve heard that a dominant rooster won’t let the other roosters crow which, if true, would help with the noise issue.
But who knows what may happen?
If he turns out to be well behaved then I may try to find a way to keep him.
I can’t say I wouldn’t like to breed some more NN from time to time.

But the brown one goes to freezer camp!
