Raising A Chicken Of My Own
Once again it is a wonderfulMonday Eveningand what a beautiful day to be alive!Now go ahead,ask those"Questions You Never Knew You Wanted To Ask."Like, Where was I yesterday?Why didn't I write Post on Sunday, tying up all the loose ends from the week before? If I miss a day,please look back on some of my older Posts,because you just might find something you have missed,that you really enjoy after you have discovered it.I do have486 Postswritten so far.So I imagine you will findSomething Humorous,Something Interesting,andSomething Controversial.So please,take a look around. Next question.Why can't I play Pong anymore?Well you can my friend.Now,once again you can have hours of tedious fun hitting a square ball back and forth with an elongated rectangular paddle!Pong Game.org
Come on.Next question.You know you want to ask it. OK, how do you tell a Rooster from a Hen?Good question.With a little help from the website,AskDeb.comI hope this will answer that hard hitting question."Telling roosters apart from chickens when they’re young is not as easy as it is with other animals. Professional chicken handlers can tell the gender of a chicken the day they’re born. This process is called “chicken sexing” and is very important in the chicken industry. How can you work with an animal if you don’t even know what gender it is? Unfortunately, “chicken sexing” is much tougher than it sounds, and on their second day of life, chickens grow feathers which hide this gender detail. The goods news is you can tell the sex apart even before your chicken is of potential egg-laying age. The main differences between roosters and hens after they hatch are visual and behavioral. Roosters and hens look and act different from birth."
Comb or Wattle
"Check if your baby chicken has a comb or a wattle. Roosters have large combs and wattles, usually brightly-colored and prominent. So what is a “comb”, anyway? The comb is the tuft of flesh on top of a chicken’s head. Rooster’s combs are bigger and brighter than hens, though both genders have them. Rooster combs tend to be red, though they can be almost any color on the rainbow. Hen’s combs are generally small and pale. Roosters wear big brightly-colored combs to attract the attention of hens, that’s why a chick with a big bright comb and wattle is almost always a rooster. The same goes for the wattle–the little bit of flesh on the chicken’s chin. Just like with the comb, a rooster’s wattle is brighter and bigger than that of a hen."
The website actually has about eight more paragraphs on how to tell the difference,but after reading aboutChicken Sexing,Chicken Combs,andChicken Wattles,I'm about ready to have a beer. This is,Raising A Chicken Of My Own In The Backyard,Jim Hauenstein,
And,
“Shoving feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.”
- Brad Pitt -
That is my story and I am sticking to it!
