Show off your roosters



This picture shows the difference in size between my bantam roosters and my big guy, Woodstock. It was taken Christmas day and the grass is still green. We're having our first sleet storm of the winter season now
Does Woodstock and your Bantams get along? It's funny my batam game roo keep my big guy in line.
 
Big difference! Woodstock is a pretty boy and the bantams are just awesome! Do they get along well? Are the bantams feisty, sort of like a Chihuahua thinks he can take on a Great Dane? What's the little brownish colored hen?

Thank you. Woodstock is huge, but he has a great temperament, very sweet. The hen next to him is a chantecler and she's pretty big in her own right. Of course the bantams are small and they think they are feisty, in a funny kind of way. They have the personality of cats, curious about and into everything. They'd follow us into the house if we'd let them and they do follow us into the garage. They'll even hop up on windowsills to look inside.
Thankfully everyone gets along well.

Rory, who actually had a very recent near-death experience! This time yesterday he was down and literally in the throes of death. I'm so relieved he's OK.

Lincoln! Who is also inside due to an eye infection from getting picked on a bit. But he is doing so much better today, the swelling in the eye has gone down significantly.

Little crossbreed cockbird - Sussex x Rock. Held this one back from Caponizing because he was twice as big as all his brothers!

This is honestly only a third of the roosters I have but there's only so much room on my phone...
 
Okay here is what I thought. I have 10 regular mix of hens all really good size. They all are the same size as road island reds. I had 4 road island red roosters really big size, they were ripping out the hens feathers and skin. So I trade the 4 roosters for 5 small size Bantam roosters. This way I still have the eye in the sky protection and they can spot more predators because I can get more Bantam but they won't hurt my hens. Because my hens will lay the hammer down on a small rooster. I was saying 2 Bantam per regular rooster according to space and size in the coop.
