RIR Hen + BO Roo = RO?

This is the best looking 7 week roo I've ever had (Red Orpington?). He's very friendly and gentle. Loves for my grand daughter to hold him. He climbs up on her shoulder and rides around.

I kind of hate to see him destinated for the stew pot but I already have a productive BO Roo.

Oh no! Could you try to find him a good home since he is such a sweetie?

First, it's not a red Orpington, it's a mixed breed bird.

I can't see it well enough to say gender for sure. Can we get a profile shot of the bird standing naturally in good light?

It's definitely a rooster.

This any better? Close up sitting on my lap.
