User Reviews: Rosecomb
Cons: Can be flighty
These are just the best bantams ever!! Very alert, and proud. A true bantam, no large fowl in this breed. Lots of colors, some are still in development. One of the best birds to learn to show with. Breeders out their are very helpful. Very cold hardy with the rosecomb, and make wonderful pets.
Cons: none!
Cold hardy with the rose comb, some of the best broodies I've ever had! Every rooster was a cute, talkative, gentleman that took excellent care of his girls. The hens were reliable layers of little white eggs.
Good foragers, good fliers.
Cons: Can be a little loud..LOVE to crow and flighty
I only have pair of Rosecombs but the little roo is just one of the coolest birds ever. He loves to crow and he along with my Seabright roos are the proudest on the lot!
Article: Rosecomb
Breed Details: These birds have been a pleasure to raise. Rosecombs take a considerable amount of time to mature and feather out but the reward is well worth the wait for a gorgeous bird. The hens make excellent broodies and the roosters are gentle fathers. The breed tends to be more flighty than my docile cochins but they are in no way mean or aggressive as they are sometimes thought to be. Rosecombs are great foragers and will feed themselves very well when left to free range. They are also good flyers and love to perch up high and belt out a crow to show everyone what powerful little birds they are. These tiny bantams are packed full of personality. They talk to eachother constantly and the rosecomb rooster is always the first to spot a would be predator and let out his warning call. Everyone who stops by my home is impressed with this breed. The rosecomb is a true show stopper. |
