Hello everyone!
I haven't posted much, but I love this site. The amount of information and help is amazing.
I have a rooster I bought at auction recently (sort of accidentally...) and have been looking up his description online. The two birds that are the closest are the Phoenix and the Totemko. My boy has the olive green legs, the looser feathers,and is QUITE talkative. He/I are battling an eye infection he has, which seems to slowly be getting better, so yes, I know his left eye isn't right. I am open to suggestions about that as well, but am currently treating it. Also, in the stress of the auction, multiple rides in vehicles, and attempting to catch him for his eye treatments, he's lost some tail feathers. Yes, I feel bad about all this.
Here's some pictures:
He's messing about in some rabbit straw, dust bathing here.
Walking away from me, feeling uncooperative (I asked him to get up).
Not an attractive pose, but I'm not a chicken-whisperer
Ok, great pose, bad lighting. Sigh.
Anybody want to weigh in?
