Pictures of my Delaware Blue Cockeral **More pics added**

I just thought I would share a few pictures of my little man...well one of them anyway!! He is starting to get some really pretty brownish feathers on his head and neck!! Can;t wait to see his adult plumage!


This is Caesar!! He is my little puppy dog, follows me everywhere!

Wow! He is beautiful

 

[Bec]

Thank you! I think so too! He will make some pretty babies on the spring!!

I got 8 of them because I thought it would be pretty cool to own the Delaware State Bird! He turned out to be my only roo!! He is a sweetie despite the reputation that they have for being so mean and aggressive! The University said that it had pretty much been bred out of them, but groups of roosters may still fight, but over all they mix in well with any flock!

I found some blue delaware hatching eggs on a site, and I've been strangely attracted to them for some reason....NOW I KNOW WHY! Caesar is gorgeous! I gots to get me some of them!

Well i can get some eggs on the way in the spring!!!

I really like them too...I think they are really neat looking!

He's an absolute hunk! Those hens are going to go gaga over him!

Very handsome roo! How old is he?

 

[Bec]

He is about 4 months old. I don't know exactly..I had so many different age groups that I lost track of who was in what group!! lol

Could you please add me to your list for eggs in the spring?
Thanks

When you say 'little man' are you implying that roosters are smaller than hens? Because if you are, then that confirms my suspected rooster...
