Cool, I'll be doing much less than you. 2 Kelso clutches and probably a Kelso over a Grey just for some vigor (just keepmales). No pure Grey breeding. I think ima let those die off, focus on just my Kelso

I see that. But eventually I'll get to where I need to be. Just need to establish certain traits I want, then move forward from there.

I'd say I'd take a few off your hands, but I got enough birds to take with me when we move sometime next month.
Knocked the flock down to 69, but ended up adding a new bird, so 70 now.
Will be rehoming a Indian Malay Pullet, so that'll bring me down to 69.

I should be rehoming a couple Malay stags as well, so it would bring the flock down to 66.

Maximus seems to have alittle bit of a calcium deficiency. He got abit of a warp in his keel bone which he never had previously, & I pick him up alot to check him out.

He's so human friendly I can just walk right up to him, & pick him up without a struggle.

Giving all the birds some Rooster Booster Poultry Cell in their water today.

I may have to keep new guy caged. He's pretty game. But I may try again next week, & let him out again, & if there's another full on brawl, then he's gonna need his own setup with some hens/pullets.

He, & his brother don't like each other at all. Once fight mode is triggered, it's hard to get them to stop.
