Just a few days ago the golden rooster started crowing. A few days later the americana rooster started crowing. The farm 'sounds' like a farm now with the occasional rooster in the background.
Yesterday we found the first eggs from the young chickens. They are tiny compared to the 3 yr old chicken eggs!
Then... I witnesed the first rooster fight. After throwing out some feed both boys went after it... But natures way is a single dominant male in each society. So they went after it. Feathers fluffed... Necks stretched... Trying to jump on each other and attack. Fortunately the golden had enough before any damage was done. He walked off to let the americana eat.
