Thanks. Little, not so much. One of the bigger boys.

What breed is he, do you know?

He’s an Easter egger.

Aw! Is he pretty tame? Because i have five Buff roosters at the moment, and they are rambunctious, not really friendly either.

Yeah. Hmm well I wouldn’t say pretty tame but he is the most tolerant of me out of about 7 other EE Roos and the 2 australorps, 2 RIR, Two BO’s And two leghorns. He’s fairly calm and I can get within a couple feet without feed.

Same here I’m sending birds to the auction Saturday and I have to sort through and figure out which I want or don’t.

How are they doing healthwise?

Yeah, there are just so many I like but I can't keep them all.

They, are doing great.... They have all gained about 2-pounds each..... But those mites are just terrible.... With 54-birds I can't just move them so I am working on culling 5he ones I don't want and then maybe I can move them.

Dad said I have to at least pick ten to cull.

I understand, I have 60 hens to pick through, Ive picked my roosters.

That’s great! Are you still giving them booch?
Oh, that sucks. Ah, I see.
