"Arnie" the Rooster |
He went to work almost immediately on his harem and we now have 3 new chicks from a broody ISA Brown hen. They arrived 21 days after being laid. We unfortunately lost a 4th egg, "Mum" kicked the egg out about a day or so before it hatched. Upon opening the egg, we found a fully developed dead fetus.
We plan to keep the females for laying eggs and any Males will be killed and eaten when they first start to crow. We also can;t keep any males of course as they will only fight amongst themselves.
Here are the little fella's in action !
Mum and babies are doing well ! |
