Coal is my favorite chicken. I am not sure if he is a rooster or a hen. He is a Black Australorp. He is the only chicken in the flock that does not run when I try to pick him up. He (what it is called now) is four months old. He has little nubs of spurs (I think) and he does not crow like the other rooster. He is not aggressive like him either. However, he makes a croaking noise that sounds like a crow when he "talks". He also has a bigger comb and wattle than the hens, but is his body is smaller than some of them (particularly Shadow).
Whenever I used to put him with the other roosters, they used to attack him and another BO rooster named Big Daddy. One of the Buff Orpingtons died when it was a chick (Tiny) and three them were bullies (roosters named Sulfur, Gold, and Banana) along with a Black Australorp rooster named Carbon who is also a bully. We gave the three bully BO roosters away because they had bitten Coal in the neck (you will see on the pictures). Big Daddy was the only BO rooster left. He and Coal were inside of the coop with the hens (Licorice, Shadow, and Sushi) before he attacked Coal and made him fly out. Coal was then chased by the four bully roosters and bitten on the neck. Big Daddy then tried to bite a hen. We put him outside with the bully rooster and they started to attack him and pull his feathers. They stopped attacking him after a while and we gave away the three aggressive BO roosters early in the morning.
Then, Carbon and Big Daddy were left outside of the chicken coop, away from the hens (they would try to kill Coal if they weren't separated). That night, Carbon killed Big Daddy (the only remaining Buff Orpington) and was EATING him. Buff Orpington feathers were everywhere. They were on the outside of the coop and were on the inside. Big Daddy's stomach had a hole in it and the internal organs could be seen. His head and neck did not have any feathers or skin, nor did it have eyes, a comb, and a wattle. We have been keeping Carbon away from the other chickens after this. Whenever we try to put him back with them, he attacks Coal.
Anyways, here are the pictures of Coal:
