OK buff orpington is the best Imo you have the best chance of getting a good one bc their temperament in general is good

Just seen a statue Gallery off of a Highway. It was unpainted but it was only $24 and it's life-size. I love it. Picture doesn't do it justice though. Must say it's comforting having people who understand this loss. Some people don't understand but truth is I didn't before I had him.

I know what is is to be very attached to a rooster. I've lost a few that we loved dearly to old age, injuries, etc. I'm very sorry, but you'll fall in love again, I'm sure! A good rooster is a treasure!

yes very true, thank you

That statue is beautiful! yes! I know what you mean! People don't understand how much you can love and enjoy a chicken!

I would suggest you focus less on breed and hunt around for an adult male with a known, well-behaved temperament. Young cockerels are a gamble no matter the breed.

I agree, but, most times it is easier to buy a young rooster, and give them a lot of attention and interaction with you, this is how I made my once mean rooster one of my bests!

If I had to gamble on a breed I'd pick a Murrunda Basque.
Hands down best roosters ive ever had. Almost too friendly.
