Well, the final count...3 Red Jungle Fowl and one white Silkie rooster. The rooster was a spare. The other three were a nice trio I could have sold for a good price. I raised them last fall. Hatched them late and barely got them feathered when winter hit. I have a spare pair of these from the same clutch.
