Can your roo do this?

Haha what a silly bird! He's pretty too. I have a black frizzle that when it was under a week old I would find him upside down in the brooder, just laying there! Sometimes he would cheep, sometimes not. I would flip him over and he would be fine, I kept thinking something is wrong with this bird, but he's growing up just fine. He's almost out of the brooder stage now. He only did that about a week, probably about 20 times though!

Are they ever not keepers? I raised them (inside) from little baby silkies. I have all the eggs I can eat thanks to my big girls (sisters, who have the full run of my large backyard and can lay up to two eggs each a day). Even though it would be easier, now that I have to move, to have girls I can’t imagine getting rid of my “flock of Roosters”. They are so much fun, and they have their little family...

He’s not fat he’s just fluffy

I think that he thought you put him in time out for pecking your ankle, and was waiting for you to let him know his punishment was over. Poor guy, was just saving you from a bug bite.
