I would have thought they would be ok outside, maybe just stood next to the house wall for a bit of protection. They stand in the fields here too all winter.

I've never seen a rooster like that- what is it?
He's a Swedish Flower. As is his mum, who's sitting on the ground next to him. And his dad, who's my avatar. I think they're a wonderful breed: besides being eye candy, they are great free rangers and foragers, and not at all aggressive.

How difficult were they for you to find?
It took a while, and I drove for about 5 hrs (there and back) to select and bring home my foundation stock. There is a thread about them on BYC https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/swedish-flower-hen-thread.375288/
and you might there be able to find someone nearby you who has them. I'm guessing they don't exist on Tatooine

Don't Peck On Me
Update on the comic book:
He enjoys what he read so far. The power of the rooster is that every time he crows he blew up bad guys' heads. The villain is a dude with lots of chicks, but he loves all his baby chicks and they love him.
It is a very adorable story.
Why do you think this happened?The problem is there are now so many things you can't buy locally any moe
For example my optometrist has me taking Pro DHA Eye, not sold in any local stores as far as I can tell.
Probably because Ama-zon took over the profitability of smaller enterprises.
Because people don’t look ahead and don’t see where buying by Ama-zon ends up.
If people keep on buying from the milionaires. They only get richer and if they have a monopoly it’s very hard to stop them from takeing over everything.
Look further then the first page to buy stuff. Go to a town with many shops , buy what you need and and enjoy a day in the city.
ps Edited the name of this monster to avoid an automatic link to the shop and some typo.

Why do some birds behave strangely? Often to impress or signal that they want to date. But also to give signs they are interested in caring and being a good parent for offspring.Today, my rooster took a long time coaxing his hen to lay an egg in a loose straw bale (the straw in the designated nest box, despite being straw from this selfsame straw bale, is not good enough straw). She remained stubbornly suspicious for a good while, but his persistent powers of persuasion convinced her in the end.
Has there ever been a conclusive opinion as to why they throw bits of nesting material onto their backs when getting ready to lay? Both my rooster and hen did this. My guess was they might they be trying to "cover" the egg, even when the egg is still forthcoming. Pretty amazing creatures they are...but of course we all know that, here.

Humans are not so different.
Do you live in Tatooine Tunisia?
I suppose this Swedisch flower breed is more fit for colder climates.
What breeds do you have over there?
