He is about 3-4 months old.

I wanted to share pictures of one of my culls, "Rock Star" at 27 weeks. Technically he is a cull since I removed him from my breeding stock. But, in all reality it was just a geographic change since he has been given a 12 x 12 stall and two girlfriends (Wyandottes on loan) to keep his spirits up. He will sire all my future hens for eating eggs. I know you all don't post pictures of culls, but he's won my heart since he likes to pose and I like to paint.

Anyhow, his claim to fame is how he works the camera and the ladies. Let's just say, vigor he doesn't lack, but at the same time is gentle.. Notice in the last pictures how big his chest gets when his "honies" are nearby.

Wow! He is about one of the prettiest roosters I have seen. I hope his comb straightens out for you. Our (American) Orp boys and other breeds with large combs can get a little floppy-ish in the summers here in FL when it is really hot but go back to normal with the cooler weather.

X 200!! He is loud and proud. The floppy comb is a bummer but GOSH I'd breed him!!
