The Rooster Thread!

[RoostersAreAwesome]

Lupin and Lil Chipmunk, I'm pretty sure Lil Chipmunk is a rooster. (The big one is Lupin and the little one is Lil Chipmunk.)

Huckleberry the OEGB/Japanese bantam cross.

Frosty, who I got from someone with too many Roos. I'm not sure of his breed, but I think he's mostly OEGB.

My rooster flock.

Lupin and Lil Chipmunk again; Lupin is a standard barred Cochin, Lil Chipmunk is a bantam black breasted red old English game.

Huckleberry looks like a tough customer!

Lol! He is a actually a very sweet rooster, and he has really interesting colors. His mother was a red Pyle OEGB/Leghorn and his father was a pure white Japanese bantam. So, I have no idea where all those grays and browns came from.

I would love to mix breeds like that!

The chicken in your avatar is a definite rooster. What breed is he? I will say barred rock.

This is Punk Rock. He is my silkie rooster. He is a little over a year old. He is worthless as a guardian, but I love him. He will sound the alarm, from behind a tree or the coop. He was named by my favorite nephew who has Autism/Aspergers and was absolutely terrified of chickens until he met Punk Rock and his 3 girls. The smile on his face when he got to touch their "So soft feathers...like a feather duster!" is one of my favorite chicken memories.
Now he loves watching the chickens. He'll crow at my big Barred Rock, Dumpling, and Dumpling will crow back. The laughs are contagious when they get started. Punk Rock will crow back, from behind something or amongst the hens.

Lupin is the chicken in my avatar. He is a barred Cochin, and I knew he was a rooster when he was 4 weeks old, lol.

I got my roo when a friend of mine ordered chickens and accidentally ordered all roosters ...
so she gave one to me , and I named him Timoteo Mambru (Timoteo from a tv show I love , and mambru because when he was little , he would fall asleep and we could never find him . he is at 10 weeks and he's already trying to crow . I think . either that or hes dying . one of the two

Haha! I know what you mean!

I know one of my hens will make this loud noise that sounds like a rooster crowing but she only does it when it is hot out.
