Do you have any stories to go along with these guys?

The Barred Rock hen is one of 23 that I currently have in my flock... I plan on getting my numbers down so that I can get to know those that I keep as my laying crew. I suppose names will follow because I name everything!
The little BLR Wyandotte roo and the Blue Jersey Giant roo I found on Craigslist for free. They are 2 1/2 mos and starting to crow (well at least the BLRW is) so the gentleman who had them had to place them as he lives in town. I call the Giant "Goose" because he makes little honking noises, so sweet! He will probably wind up a pet, as he is slightly crossbeaked. I am still searching for a great name for the other roo...
Both of these guys are originally from Sandhill Conservation Poultry. My Barred Rocks are from Privett Hatchery in New Mexico.
