    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Hey scratch! I actually caught your post about an hour before I took him to the post office today. I filled the bottom of the box with shredded newspaper - made a makeshift trough out of a half of a margarine cup firmly taped to the side with packing tape and filled that with canned corn...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    The box is here and I'm getting ready to ship Roger The Rooster up to Ohio either tomorrow or Thursday. I have a couple of questions before I ship him.... If I line the bottom of the box with very thin panty liners, would he peck at them and possibly get cotton stuck in his throat? I was...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    I ordered the box today & they said to expect it next Wednesday or Thursday. Hopefully I can get Roger the Rooster up to Ohio by next weekend. Gonna miss the little guy though, to be completely honest!!! I'm sure I'll have more questions when it come time to pack him up. Mom promised to take...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    LoL thanks scratch! That explains why he likes my toes...and if he likes shiny things - the buttons on my shirt as well! I took another photo tonight - it's not great (my phone takes such lousy shots) but it is very cute - he's sitting in my sons lap looking up at him. Is there a way I can...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Hey chics! I think the photo we have is probably one of the best we're going to get. I don't have a digital camera so we were relying on a phone cam which is dodgy, at best. I can't put him out in the back yard during the day.....although we have a fenced yard.....there are too many cat's...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Hey scratch! I'll give USPS a call....actually, if that is an option - I'll send him up to her much sooner!! Mom is already set up to care for him very well.......she has also promised not to make him into a chicken dinner!!! My youngest, who is 15, has gotten very attached VERY quickly...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Well chics & Sheila - I spoke to my mom up in Ohio, and she wants my son to bring it up with him when he goes up for his summer visit next month. I'd actually like it if that were the outcome here - what I need to find out before making any decision is if my son can take him on a plane. If he...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    LoL Kla - I'm pretty sure it's a rooster and not a flamingo! You can see a couple of pic's here at the Craigs List lost and found ad I posted http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/laf/2366160733.html And I did not make a post on the auction forum here - I'll give that a try. I only found this site...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Thanks HalfWay! We are enjoying his visit....I'm really curious though as to those who keep them as pets - (I read a thread about 'lap roosters').....do you keep them in the house? We've had 'Roger the Rooster' in a spare room that has tile floors, but the mess is incredible. We mop several...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Actually the pictures are now showing up - FINALLY!!! You can see him here http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/laf/2366160733.html In one of the photo's - you can see I'm holding a 12 inch ruler next to him. If he picks his head all of the way up and stretches his neck, he's maybe 2 inches taller...

    Found a very sweet rooster in Clearwater, Florida in our yard....

    Thanks welash! Even though Craigs List is showing "pic" next to the listing, the photo's are not showing up in the actual ad and I don't know why. I've tried a couple of times today to re upload them to no avail. I wonder if the site itself is having difficulty maybe....
