    Good home for this pretty rooster

    This is Rooster T. Washington. He was born easter of 2014. I think he would be happier with more land and more ladies. He has been attacking people's feet when they come into the coop. I live in northern colorado. Let me know, thanks!

    Mean Rooster

    My rooster just started being very mean to me and anyone else. He will chase and peck at us. He is very protective of the hens. He was born on Easter of this year. And I was just wondering if there is anything I can do, because I don't like being charged every time I turn my back :/
