Our rooster is here!

[WyoChick1]

Meet Twix! My nieces named him as a chick, hoping he'd be a hen. But he's not, and they live in city limits and can't keep him, so today they brought him to us.

They had never heard him crow (he's about 17 weeks), but as soon as we put him with my flock he started crowing! It was so surprising and funny!

There were a lot of kerfuffles as he tried to jump on everybody and they were not happy about it. I kinda knew to expect that, but it was still pretty scary. Thankfully everyone seems to have settled down and things are peaceful for now. I hope it works out to keep him! My sister is really thankful that he can have a good home with us. He was a good boy in their flock, so hopefully he's good for us too.

Do you know if he is an Easter Egger?

Do you know if he is an Easter Egger?

Yes, he was labeled as Araucana but I think he's probably an Easter Egger.

Some more pictures. Both my niece and my daughter are able to catch and hold him, so hopefully that's a good sign.

Handsome boy!

He took their best favorite roost at bedtime, and they were all hesitant to go in the coop, but there's no fighting so I guess this is how it's supposed to work?
