"Goose" { light rooster } with 2 of his gals. We have 5 girls and 2 guys. Our 2nd rooster is much darker and we call him "Chicken Lips". He earned this name cause when the others try to fight w/ him, he kisses them on the chicken lips! {haha} He's a lover not a fighter. Goose started crowing 7-31-02 @ a touch over 5 mths old. Lips started crowing on 8-5-02.
* UPDATE* 8-15-02 :Goose has joined the adult flock now. He breeds w/ the Laying hens |

| The babies are 2 weeks old & doing great! I didn't much want her to set a clutch of eggs but she refused to be broke from the broodiness. So we allowed her to set them & they are all doing great. She is a happier hen now.
