Does that top one have an actual name for the color? I had a sweet little girl that passed away with that color and would love to have it again. I made it completely by accident, apparently my mixed boy likes surprises colorwise

I’ll return with pics, just replying so I won’t lose my spot.

I have at least 5 roosters that are permanent and a whole lot more that are for eating.

One of my favorite roosters unfortunately has a puberty-like crow, it’s horrible But I love the rooster.

There’s an EE I wanted to keep but his crow came out like he’s screaming, it’s annoying so sadly he has to go.

I have a black Australorp rooster who by far has the best crow. He sounds like his dad, hopefully he won’t be a butt like his dad or he will be dinner like him.

That massive rooster looks like a Cornish Cross. They are only raised for meat. They can be pets or breeders, but that requires a very limited feed regime that needs to be started when they are around three weeks old..

I’m sorry, but I think that Cornish Cross probably has leg problems unless he’s just hangin’ out at the moment. A meat-eating friend might be helpful in his case.

The other roosters are cute and they all look like terrific bug-eaters and fertilizer-makers. I see you have some cages. How do you keep the peace otherwise?

My big guy Victor was just hanging out he was laying down all the way with his head on the ground that's how he sleeps he walks fine the ones in the cage were only in it cause i just got home with them the ones on the outside are from my main coop I was getting ready to put them in the batchler pad and King Rooroo my head roo from my main coop walked over and started crowing at them like where did you come from this is my yard it was really funny to watch them the really funny thing is Victor is 5x the size of King Rooroo and they have never argued over who is boss and keeping the peace ive never had to worry about my main coop the 8 of them all grew up together and figured it out when they were younger and the batchler pad because they are all roo's they just except each other cause they are not competing over hens it's just a bunch guys hangin out eating and drinking and farting
