    Wondering about Breed and age

    This handsome fellow showed up one morning atop the coop and adopted our girls. He's been here every since. He is calm, tame and seems young, but I have no idea! I'm new to this chicken thing, but I do love mine! Can anyone identify a specific breed? Any idea how old he is? Thanks in advance for...
