Meet Mr. Big!

[Rick&Chris]

I wanted to introduce you to Mr. Big! As you know, I was back and forth, on and off the fence about getting a rooster. After our Thanksgiving Day Coopers Hawk attack I decided to take the plunge. He is about 9 months old (my girls are 15 months old) and so far, so good! We had a couple of squabbles with my two top hens on day one, but now everyone is settled in! He snuggles in next to them on the roost at night!! Love to see him strutting around and his crowing makes me smile! Merry Christmas and Happy Healthy New Year to all!

He is a handsome fellow. I hope he is all you wish for. What a nice Christmas present for your ladies.

Thank you! They are not impressed with this gift, yet!

He is still young and I'm sure they will eventually warm up to him. Happy Holidays, good luck and have fun...

Ohhh, he's a handsome fella!! I hope that he protects your flock & that they warm up to him soon. If the lead hens have, the rest will come around

He is, isn’t he!?! They all just go about their business. Harmony, but no mating yet.

He's waiting on the right opportunity. What kind is he? He looks to be fullblooded dalmatian!!! He's very handsome.
