In the Brooder
I have these two 8 week old roos. The light one, I know for sure is a roo because he has started to crow, but the black one has not yet, however, I am pretty sure he is as well. I am totally ok with that because we have plenty of space for them both and no neighbors. I am unsure what breed they are though. I ordered eggs from a farm and when they came they were not marked with their breed, just a listing. Any ideas? Cochin, dominiquer?
The light one is Gimley and the dark one is Frodo.
Frodo has lots of feathering on his feet so I am not very familiar with this breed. They are very sweet and loving so far and currently they are in with 10 other girls but will be merged with my other 7 girls in a few months. Will they be fine to keep all together or should I separate them into two different flocks? I currently have a total of 19 chickens. So far these two are the guys and the rest are gals, but with 10 of them still only 8 weeks of age, you never can tell.
