A little update...
We've had our rooster for a year now and he's really settled in to be a nice flock rooster. Protective, but not human aggressive. We had a difference of opinion when he was about a year old and had just taken charge of the flock, but now that he's matured a bit more and grown in confidence, we get along just fine.
The hen with him here is one of our two 2014 pullets and our only green egg layer. Currently laying the most frequent and biggest eggs of the flock.
Otherwise it's pretty much just wintertime -- not a lot going on besides keeping waters thawed, cleaning up, and preparing for spring.
