Western NC - take your pick of two special Roos

[One Lucky Momma]

It’s with a heavy heart that I offer up either of my boys - a white Cochin, Little John

Or a splendid Dominique, Aegis:

Raised together since their arrival as day old chicks, they have coexisted amicably until about two weeks ago when, I’m thinking, at a year old their hormones kicked in and they no longer want to play well with other roosters. Neither has been aggressive towards me, but after witnessing the thrashing they’ve given each other I now understand the allure of cock fighting (not that I’d condone organized cock fighting, I’m just amazed at the tactical expertise and fearlessness of these birds).

I love them. Maybe almost equally. Of course I’m hopeful that one can be rehomed into a productive life. Both of these guys are exceedingly roostery towards the flock in our free range habitat. They’ve been raised organically with lots of close contact with other livestock and a few humans. Aegis has been the Main Man for the past year with Little John providing backup. Currently Aegis is spending most of his time in a large dog crate where the hens can visit through the bars.

We are in Marshall, NC, about an hour north of Asheville. Please be in touch if you’re interested.

I'd love to have that handsome fella for my flock of Dominiques but it's too far to drive.
