    Sapphire Gem Gender 3<4wk

    Appreciate ya! That’s what I told my mom & older sister (I have raised them before) but they are gonna die on that rooster hill.

    Sapphire Gem Gender 3<4wk

    I think this is very possible. I’ve raised three of my own (all hens) & I remember being kinda sus of one, but none of them had this much pinking this early. Maybe she’s got that boss hen in her 🤣

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    That’s actually something that I’ve been curious about. I think it’s “okay”. Activity I’ve noticed with hens: He doesn’t take no for an answer. If he gets rejected he runs them down. He gives up after his 2nd/3rd attempt tho, and usually the hens are agreeable. He calls them to bed at night...
