Attached is a picture of him in the coop with his girlfriend on the left. I wanted him as soon as I realized he was a very tame little guy. I'm still afraid of him, but that's only because my old rooster Steve hit me with his beak once in the leg and the pain lasted for weeks.
But he is smart as a whip and I hope I can offer him a forever home. I practically get giddy every time he crows. I just love him. My old rooster, Steve was taken by coyotes after I moved in and before I realized that letting the chicks forage in the fenced garden area was a huge mistake. He died fighting for them.
I have no idea why the photo came out sideways, but you can still see him. I want to mention that I used hardware cloth for my coop and because of that and how it is built, it is both predator and rodent proof!

Cassie, How kind of you to take this special rooster in. He had to have been a hand raised pet to be so tame and have a sense of what to do when. Bless your heart and your family for giving him a home! Did you name him? What color(s) is he?
