    What breed is this rooster?

    Thank you! I appreciate your reply. He is going to a good home where I know he will grow old and have lots of lady friends. I myself do not do roosters. I love to hear them crow and they are beautiful but become a headache when they start attacking my old girls and occasionally in the past...
