He is very meek. He lost a fight with one of the bantams, so he's not aggressive at all. He's not used to people yet so he is scared of them and will run away.
He exists because our Black Sumatra had chicks with our neighbor's Rhode Island Red Rooster who snuck into the yard. By the time we...
My family is trying to move to Connecticut, and I want to bring some of my chickens with me. But it's far away and we'll be in temporary housing.
