We hear so much about hens and chicks on here, let's give our roosters the spotlight they deserve!

I want to know if they are less likely to be bought as...

Three of them all have the same general coloration, and they are all pullets as far as I can tell at the moment. They are all 9 weeks old now.

Today I was cleaning my chicken coop and watching my 9 week old chicks explore. As I was watching them, one of my 9 week old Buff Orpington cockerels seemed to try and mate with one of the 9 week old Buff Orpington pullets. He tried it twice.
What I saw was him grab the back of her neck with...
