My hubby is the same way !

And he's the one who made me get chickens !

We started out with his limit of 6. We now have 20 Pullets and a Roo ! He works out of state for weeks at a time, and since he's been gone this time, 4 new pullets seem to have found there way into the coop. hahahaha. I wonder if he'll notice !

We started out with 20. After a new headcount today we have *drum roll* 46 total. Mine goes out of town for business sometimes or even just to work for the day and BAM we have another chicken in our flock. Mine had to build a new hen house for our ever growing flock.

picture of the new henhouse.

If u notice in the right corner that little building was our old henhouse. The new one is 16 x 16

Hahahaha We had to do the same ! The new coop is completed, but when he returns, we are going to finish their run. It's going to be nice and big for them

We converted 1/3 of our small barn into their coop.

That definitely is a roo and probably a Production Red. I have 2 of them myself

Here is a pic of my EE roo....

And pics of my Production red roos...

ETA: Yours looks lighter like a NH to me....

Yeah this week we are finsihing up the top of ours. We are planning on building runs but as it is now the coop is inside our fenced off orchard. so they are conatined yet sort of free range.

Look up New Hampshire and see if that's him. Pretty close, anyway.

They will have blueish/green legs also. Could be a cross between RIR & ameraucana. Just thinking ...
Here is my Rooster & He does have the blueish/green legs & 100% Rooster
