YOU will never find anything that aggressive . IF you going to have chickens , you need to have a totally predator proof coop and run .

Kinnip how big is he. We are new chicken folk and not sure of all the breeds yet.

I know I want find anything to fend off large predators but by grannies!!! I want him to have a fighting chance. I have a secure coop but my wife and daughters couldn't stand not to have them wander around the yard as freed chickens!

He's a tiny guy, not much bigger than a bantam. He weighs maybe 4 pounds. The one I have is all black, but they come in blue and splash, too. He's a very pretty boy. This is him several months ago, still young and sparsely feathered. His hackles and saddles are fully developed now and he's impressive.

Oh, good, Tiff! I hate opening my mouth to prove how uninformed I am, LOL.

If they keep getting killed by whatever while free ranging, the wife and daughters should be able to see the reasoning behind a secure fenced in area and a roo would still be a great help.

My Andalusian is a great protector, too, a lot more than the Black EE, the BO and the bantam roos. I have to really watch him while the other roos know I'm no threat and bring the treats n feed. Seems I pick Blue up every other time I'm in "his/our" area...

If your daughter wants a pretty bird, there's someone fairly near you (Elijay) on Craigslist who is offering silver-laced Wyandottes, including a young rooster:
