What a sweet looking guy

Thank you! He totally is, he’s even so gentle with the chicks

You got it all correct, the bird is developing quickly with a big comb already turning red, he's got tree trunks growing for legs, , big chest. On females the combs, wattles and faces don't grow this fast nor redden until nearing maturity. Their legs are more thin and delicate at this age. He's cute!

Yeah I totally thought so! It’s vern hard finding info on Sapphire Splash chicks, apparently they’re pretty new? So we sort of followed the very basic hen vs rooster guidelines haha

Do I count as a "gamer" if I just play Fishdom on my iPad when I go to bed? Oh, sometimes Microsoft solitaire too. I used to play Warcraft and Everquest a couple of decades ago.

Haha definitely! I never played WC or EQ myself but my boyfriend and his dad especially were big into EQ
