Re: Three amigos
It’s now the 6 amigos. I’m surprised how well these guys get along. The for sure cockerel is very protective of all of them but especially the lone little Bantam. He makes sure she is in the middle of the pile at bed time.

Re: Three amigos
Ok time for the what am I guesses. This first guy is a cockerel for sure and I’ve knowm that for a while. He’s very protective of the other chicks and oddly seems to adjust his play to their size (hes with chicks his age, a week younger and 3 weeks younger including a Bantam)
I’ve thought of this little orange one as a girl from the start but her comb has suddenly grown the past couple days. Thoughts? 6 1/2 weeks old. The one behind the orange one is Little People. I’ve thought of him as a boy from the beginning but starting to lean towards pullet. 5 weeks old.
He’s had a couple of names but neither have stuck so still thinking on it. I’ve thought of this little orange one as a girl from the start but her comb has suddenly grown the past couple days.

Re: Three amigos
I’ve never had bearded chickens before. Does it look like this guy will have one? He’s definitely got cheeks. Which is how he got his name. Maurice Cheeks (some basketball player). Plus hubby sings “some people call me Maurice...” every time he sees him So I guess it’s sticking.
I had been calling this one Gilligan when I thought it was a cockerel. I guess it’s Gilly now unless things change again. Sorry KB lol.

Re: Three amigos
Yep I’d say that’s a beard. I’m finding myself hoping that Maurice can be docile and let Little Sherman be the boss. I’d love for him to stay. But I highly doubt that will happen.
