Chickabee Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I never thought I'd say this, but my new roo is gorgeous. He wakes up at about 4, but I look forward to hearing him. He feeds from my hand, I think he looks for me as much as I look for him. Gosh, I never thought I wanted a boy. The girls despise him at the moment, but he's just getting his new ploomage. Will post photos at some stage, but don't normally have my camera when I'm in chicken mode. Anyone else had this feeling ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Oh Yes I couldn't choose between my favourite hen and my favourite cockeral......but I do have a large canvas print of the boy on my wall.... it was the best thing ever that they paired up but unfortunately I never had any chicks from them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
