Feeling sad, took back skittle today.

Recommended Posts

Well I took back my speckled sussex Skittle to the breeder today. Yep definitely a boy, he is now strutting around a pen with a harem! The breeder kindly offered a replacement but i didn't want to upset the other 2 girls (and myself) by trying introductions when i'm so new to chicken keeping.

I replace poor skittle with a sack of mash and a sack of corn :cry:

He says he may keep Skittle to use for breeding, i really hope so. He is a lovely looking boy in my opinion.

I saw him on the other thread, and its sad you couldn't keep him :( If you find yourself with more Sussex in the future, the comb and wattles were the biggest giveaway to me along with his size and the start of swoopy tail feathers. I thought he was rather a handsome chap and its great your breeder has taken him back :D Your other 2 will be absolutely fine though, no worries about keeping them as 2 hens together :D
