    Welsummer Rooster - SE PA - Free to a Good Flock

    Here is a picture of Sumeer - He was supposed to be a she. While I would love to keep him - our Borough doesn't allow him. He is 14 weeks old, and in the last week just started crowing. I was even thinking maybe he was still a she until he picked his favorite girl and took her. I am not sure...
