Entered my prize rooster, Rooster Cogburn in our local county fair today. First time taking a chicken to the fair. I guess it was fun, I am not sure just what to make of some chicken folks. Anyway I went over and looked at the nice trophies they have for the chickens. I picked out a nice tall one that I hope to claim as my own on the morrow. Win, lose or draw the grandkids think it is cool and that means that so do I. I still think that the Barred Rocks are one nice looking bird.
RC is about 20 weeks old in this recent photograph. Wish him well in his first bird show.
Best to all of you whom love them Barred Rocks,
RJ
How did the fair go??? He is a gorgeous boy. I have 11 barred rocks, but they are all girls. Would love to get me a fine looking bird like yours so I could make some pretty babies. Right now I am going to be putting a few with my Black Austrolorp Rooster to make black sex-links.
