To roo or not to roo...

You know after hearing what a great daddy Impy makes, I'd almost be tempted to want a Trahma, if only those naked necks weren't so... well.. if they weren't so... well... you know...

But then look at Cash. He's Impys son and my black turken hen Ivy, yet being HQ they produced a cockerel offspring with a full set of neck feathers. Who wouldn't want a Cash?

Just kidding. I'm keeping Cash. His brother Rowdy (turken/EE) I wouldn't mind finding a home for:

Getting a rooster has been somewhat harder than one would think.

My parents live a good 3.5 hrs away, so if I got one locally, I'd have to figure a way to keep him till either they or I could make the trip. It would involve having to smuggle him past my nosy neighbors & hide him from my dogs. Not really ideal.

First, my mom was set to adopt a friend's spare, but while they were talking on the phone, I guess he crossed her husband one too many times & ended up dinner first.

Tried to set her up with a nice RIR, but he was too plain.
Yesterday I talked to a guy about a little cuckoo maran cockerel, but then I saw gritsar's post and said hmmm...

Then in the mean time, she saw an online ad I'd forwarded to her and decided she's found her perfect rooster. Woke me up this morning to tell me, lol. So I spent half the day driving all over N.TX, first to go collect him (an hour from me in the wrong direction from her house!) and then to bring him partway to meet up with her.
