Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

I have some extra silkie cockerels if you need crowing. They just started trying this last week (21 weeks today) so they sound hilarious.

The little black one is rather sweet and I think I'll use him in the center pen. Toss up between 2 of the others on who to keep.

They aren't quite filled out enough for me to eat yet, so they have time.

No thank you.

No thank you.

I was joking. You must need the annoying crowing. Had an ameraucana cockerel who wouldn't shut up all night one night. Kept waking me. He was in the fridge later that morning.

Mom wants the 3 of them when they are big enough, which should be right around my next trip down.

I figured you were pulling my leg! Some mornings I'd hear constant crowing 30 feet away from my bedroom, and the older the cockerels got, the louder they got. LOL

I definitely considered cervical dislocation more than once, but there's wasn't much meat on them. And, to be fair, I'm just not set up for having roosters with the run and coop so close to the house, so it wasn't their fault. Just trying to be roosters. Luckily a pair of chicken whisperers gave them a third chance in life.

Maybe I'll build a new coop and run far, far away from my house someday, but for now they're going to have to live right next door.
