Thanks so much everyone! Really glad I found this site, tons of good info here.
Elvis came out last night to say hello, and ate from the plate I was holding. He is bigger than I thought, and has sort of a bronze edge to his feathers. It was dark by the time I got home but I will get a picture up soon. I would like to know what he is too! He was not in the dog house this am, pretty much standing right where I left him last night. Hope he was warm enough.
Get him hens??? oh my goodness! I am all for fresh eggs, and had talked to a friend of mine about putting up a coop in my yard. But for eggs, not babies!! I have allot of learning to do on this critter!

I think it was fate. You probably didn't realized how much you wanted a rooster, till he showed up. Okay just kidding.

I like your sense of humor!!

so, I found this on craigslist today:
https://www.omlet.us/shop/chicken_keeping/eglu_go/
just the house, not the pen area.
Should I go for it? Give the handsome man more appropreate accomidations?

** edited to add that searched this site for info on the omlet and got great info
