Handsomest Rooster Breed?

[onthespot]

Here is a blue copper roo. He was young here, around six months or so if I recall, maybe five.

Next year I want to get a rooster or two. What, in you folk's opinion, is the handsomest classic looking (and calmest) rooster? I like the wyandottes and welsummer's look.

Hello awesomefowl,

I never had a Welsummer, hen or rooster. I hear good about them though.
They look pretty handsome.

My Dad and I have a Delaware / Dorking rooster (more Delaware though) he is really handsome.
The only con is he's a wee bit timid.

My suggestions are to get a rooster: 1.) You don't want a SHY rooster TIMID is different,
TIMID means nervous and SHY means he won't protect the hens. 2.) A rooster has to protect the hens,
but you don't want a hole in your leg. So you want to rooster to be more scared of you than you are of him BUT
you want the hawks more scared of him than the hens.

I hope you end up with a great rooster!

The Phoenix look beautiful too,
my Dad doesn't want them because their tails are "too long". LOL!

I like Cochin roosters and new Hampshire reds.

I have the New Hampshire hens, the roosters look handsome.

I like Cochins too. Here is my Cochin X Faverolle roo. Its hard to see in this photo but her has cream colored lower neck feathers. He is quite striking.
