Pros: Very good looking; will be held if you can catch him, good at protecting the hens, amazing watch rooster

Cons: Attacks everything in sight, Overmates hens but only because we don't have a lot, have bruises and scratches all over my arms because of him

Mader was an amazing chick through cockerel stages. Once matured though, he started to attack everyone and everything, from my mom to soccer balls. Very good at protecting the hens and knows how to peck and has perfected the whole attack with spurs and peck at the same time manuever. I know this from personal experience :/ I do however love him and he has a certain amount of charm about him <3

He is handsome. My rooster has tried to attack me twice in 2 years. He has never hurt me though. He flies up at my thigh. I yell at him but am not mean to him. I don't want to make him meaner. I guess I am lucky. But he does protect the hens, although he is 'hen pecked'. If I throw down a treat the girls run in front of him and take it and he let's them. CUTE!!
