Post by: boneaddict on March 27, 2008, 10:41:55 AM: I'm probably sitting at about 100 breeders I guess. Then when the fall rolls around I have a couple hundred. My junglefowl cock that I had just got a pardon from his death sentence and trip to my freezer for taxidermy for a life of decadence in california. He will be locked in a pen for the sole purpose of breeding 3 little ladies all day. Who says confinement is bad.
