Anyone have a nice Blue Copper Marans Roo up for grabs. I gave a friend a REALLY nice roo (when he was 8 weeks old) and he was killed by a fox this week. He was about 24 weeks old and I told her I try to find her a replacement. Anyone have one?

The OE roo (Rags) I got from Kristen yesterday is walking around in the pen with her friend, the BLRW roo (Ben). One of my TINY little Icelandic chicks tried to issue a new pecking order and Rags was not having any of it.............I love it. Rags won!! That little chickie backed way down when Rags got his feathers up
