Right now in Southern MN the roosters are so colorful!!! They are still in groups but they are starting to split up. Within a couple weeks I will see one rooster with a group of hens. I don't see much fighting, they tend to do that in the CRP/CREP land. (High native grass lands set aside.
Ticks, do you have any experience with the jumbo ringnecks? I see them in a couple catalogs being marketed for meat production. Just curious if they are really "jumbo" compared to the standard breed.
