Show off your roosters

[abbevilleoz]

My delaware is a big baby. I have a scar above my right eye that I got from a rooster my dad had when I was little.

Lol, I broke a tooth fighting a sex link rooster.

Mine is still young (26wks), so I do watch him for signs of aggression, but so far *knock wood* he is a good boy. He moves away from me and I can handle the girls no problem. I did choose a BO because I was hoping for a "docile, sweet boy" so far I have been pleased. Even though mine are contained in a large run (no free range -lots of hawks and free roaming dogs to say the least) he stays on alert, tries to be attentive to the girls and seems to be well rounded. Of course, time will tell.

@abbevilleoz
get your wife one of those little fellas like @AnnikaLF
has, I bet she would just love one. (I know I would).

I had a trio of Mottled Japanese years ago and I loved them! We have a trio of white Silkies now. Im trying to win my wife over with "fru-fru" chickens

. Speaking of BO, one of the sweetest Roos I've had was a huge BO. And...my first egg of the year just came today from a very old BO hen. I think she nine years old this spring.

Do you bathe him regularly on does he take dust baths? He just seems to grow on you doesn't he

Both and yes he does at first I was like oh my goodness he's going to drive me nuts lol. He's great lol
