The rooster pen


Today: Sunny, with a high near 67. North northwest wind between 5 and 15 mph.

Tonight: Clear, with a low around 39. North northwest wind between 5 and 10 mph.

Sammy has been buying bantams at the sale in sets of 6. I have final figured out the sales strategy. Bantam rooster can be pick out when the chicks are about 3 to 4 weeks old. Someone or several someone are hatching out a lot of bantam eggs when the chicks began to show their rooster traits ,which someone can spot if they are acquainted with chicken, they owners pick 4 roosters and 2 pullets or maybe 5 roosters and 1 pullets and sell them at the sale that way they get rid of useless roosters and keep most of the pullets. That sort of reminds me of the up coming campaign for president in the repub party they need to get rid of a lot of old roosters.
