Purplemaniacs Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 When I opened the eglu for the 9 week old bantams this morning, there was a little crow, Poorly the litlle pekin has been practicing crowing for a couple of mornings now but it is gentle and rather cute. But today as I walked across the garden a much louder crow came from them. It was The Colonel, named by DD's boyfriend as it was his favourite egg, a lovely blue one. I had my suspicions that he may have been a boy for a while but I hoped I was wrong. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirl Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 So which breed is The Colonel? Have you decided the fate of the cocks yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 He is an Araucana, I was hoping for some pretty eggs He will go back to the lady the eggs came from, four boy chicks have already gone back to her and Poorly and the Colonel will go back soon.
