charly1979 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I got snowed in at my mums (well iced in couldnt get my car off the drive) but it meant I got to see more of Julian, dad let them out this morning but left it to me to feed them. I was greeted by a lovely cock a doodle do, and as mum cuddles him loads I think he knew he would be getting one from me, so I had no protest from him . I took him for a walk around the garden telling him how beautiful he was and he is my prince dont know much about cockerels etc or but rekon he is a beauty not even sure if he is show quality ? (he is in my mind) Not even 100% sure what breed he is, he was sold to me as a gold laced wyndotte and as a girly, however I know that it has been said he probably is not a wyndotte will try and snap a better pic of him (there are two videos on here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Ooooooooooooo what big feet he has. My wyandottes have like a knitted comb on them - I assume it would be the same for a boy wyandotte. He is very handsome whatever variety he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suebee Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 charly... he's so big! Oh isn't he a beauty! I'm not surprised he gets cuddled to bits... He looks like he quite enjoys it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I agree he is big assuming he is fully grown ?? tail feathers just starting to show Ah there's just something special about a boy!!! I hope my new cockerel will be as lovely as my previous...who I adored.........(love at 1st sight with me!!! ) Mimi cant wait to see your pics I am excited for you xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charly1979 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Isn't there a saying about the size of a man's feet !!!! Julian is a very handsome fella Well if that saying is true my mothers 6 girlies are in for a shock I just wish I coud cuddle him all the time, shame he couldnt be a lap cockerel. Also those big feet happened to have a dollop of poop on them left a lovely pooh mark on my coat thank goodness for baby wipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes well with your coat - poop or not. hmmmm that gives me an idea ..... wasnt it Paris Hilton who started a craze of carrying dogs around in handbags, wonder if Julian would let me do the same cant imagine that he would Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charly1979 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Just had a phone call from my mum I wont repeat the words she said and aparently she was just repeating my dads words but it would appear that Julian has found his masculine side and her girls well they have too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi5 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Ooooooo hopefully that will settle down with time!!!??? As long as he shares his affections and doesn't favour any poor girl in particuliar !!!!! After all he is only doing what comes naturally!! It's a sure fire sign that spring must be on it's way!! Aren't you glad he's at your mums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charly1979 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Going to mums for dinner later so I will be seeing my Prince again he has 6 girlies so I hope he shares his love and as his mother I shall be having a chat with him about love, respect and being gentle (one of her girls is nearly 12) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suebee Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Wow! .... I should think a motherly chat might indeed be in order charly! (and another cuddle too, at the same time of course... ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charly1979 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 He was in no mood for a cuddle naughty boy but to be fair he was about to do the deed again even my 94yr old gran (her house backs on to the run) has seen him at it too and it was very wet and windy but we did have a breif chat not that I rekon he took a blind bit of notice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charly1979 Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Little update It would appear that mums 6 girls are hiding in the hedge whilst Julian patrols it, think he may be a very loving towards his girls BTW they are his girls but what is he to them other than a nusciance ? Do we need to perform some sort of chicken ceremony to make them all his wives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chortle Chook Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I like the idea of a ceremony to make a whole group of cockerel's girls into his wives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
