Home needed in East Tennessee (Tri-Cities area):
Thistle is a handsome 6-month old Easter Egger in search of a new flock. He was sold as a pullet by
TSC and is too big for my bantam hens (they are starting to hide instead of forage

).

Good with people



Excellent at alerting flock to danger & taking all hens to safety

Ignores cats & dogs that enter his space.


(This would likely be different in the event of a dog attacking his hens, though).

Mostly respectful with hens—I say *mostly* because I have several Silkies and he is too big for them

. It has been okay until I noticed him on one tiny bird for what seemed like far too long yesterday.

Peaceful co-existence with other 2 roosters in flock. In fact, one of the Silkie roosters chased him off today (he just spent 24 hours locked up to give all the hens a break from having 3 roosters.)
**I know this is probably because they were raised together, but my point is—Thistle will eventually be out of rooberty and be a fantastic flock leader (especially with more standard girls his size).
