Do your girls need a couple of handsome fellas in their life? Are you breeding olive-eggers and searching for a gentleman with a blue/olive gene? Meet 'Muffed Roo' and 'Quiet Roo'.
Both birds are approx. 14 weeks old and healthy. We are pretty sure they're Lavender Ameraucana x Dominique crosses; one has a lovely muff/beard + rose comb, the other has a nice rose comb. Barred hackles & saddles, lavender bodies. Both hatched from blue eggs, so mom was the Ameraucana. (Hatching eggs were given to us in April.)
We wish we could keep them because they have great personalities and are very well-mannered around people and kids. Unfortunately 3 teenage roosters were a little too much for our small flock of ladies so we kept one & have separated these boys in a bachelor pad where they are getting along well with one another. The muffed roo is the more dominant of the two, and crowing. They're sweet gents and used to free-ranging during the day; very alert.
We are willing to help with local transport within 3 hours of Southern Illinois (Western KY/Missouri boot heel/St. Louis)
We really don't want these two to go straight to a stew pot -- they're wonderful roos and deserve happy lives & flocks of their own. We talked about fattening them up for our freezer, but it seems a shame to waste the nice ones on chicken dinner.
