Depends. I might see some do some flips at only a few months of age, but usually the earliest mine start to actually roll would be around 5 months. There is always the rare exception but 5-6 months is the norm. I do have one from this year that was only flying for about three weeks before it started doing 10 footers. That is very unusual for the birds I have. For me the better ones are after six months of age. I had an '08 cock hatched at the first of July 08 that didn't start to really noticably roll until last month. That would make him about 9 months old. He's a ripper and worth the wait. Keep in mind my Horner birds are his older stuff from the late '90s.
