OMG - You are close! I definitely need to rehome them. I am in the city, and already attracting attention for the fact that I have an adult roo, and twice the number of hens allowed...

I would LOVE to give them to a good home, that won't eat them. The blue one is an easter egger, but without the puffy cheeks. His new tail feathers are even showing a hint of irridescent green. His name is Bertie Rooster (a Wodehouse reference, which, if you understand, you'll be my new best friend)

Do you have hens?

Two VERY handsome roos - na matter what mix they are! Congrats... I think they are beautiful!

The reddish colored one could be a production New Hampshire Red, or even a Buff Plymouth Rock (could even be a mix!)

Oh no. Don't encourage me. lol. I already have a full grown EE rooster in with all my EE hens. And also a younger one which I just couldn't get rid of. Got to love my EE's.

I have lots of hens, and lots of area. But sheesh. I really don't need another rooster. I told myself that when I rehomed my young ones a few months ago. hmm. Would you be willing to drive here? Or will I need to go pick him up?

Gah. I must talk to my family about getting him. I am in love. lol​

tee hee. Yeah, I'd drive. Especially if you have a farm. My friend's son LOVES field trips to farms...

If I had my way, I'd be an EE snob. They are the BEST breed.
Talk to the fam, and get back to me

 

[KinderKorner]

Oh gosh your just making it harder and harder. lol

I will try to talk to Family tonight. Sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner, we are just really busy and I keep forgetting.

I sure do have a farm. And I just had some baby goats born two days ago.

He sure is a beauty. How old is he again?

 

[kycklingar!]

I'm estimating 11-12 weeks old right now. He seemed to be about 4-5 weeks when he was dropped off at my place on the first day of June.
...I'm gearing up for a farm field trip!!

Hope the family verdict is positive!

 

[kycklingar!]

Bertie is especially lovely as he's been growing. How are you doing, with the family, KinderKorner?

 

[KinderKorner]

Well I mentioned it to them. I am getting heart surgery soon, and they think I don't need more animals to worry about. Because we are going to have to have someone feed our 100+ pets for a few weeks.

Continue looking for a home for him. If he is still avalible in Sept. I will see if I am feeling well enough to take on another animal.

I am soo sorry. I do love him. And would love to have him. But due to life issues right now, I feel they are right. Now is not a good time to get another bird.


I hope you find a nice looking home for him, he is a beauty.
