We didn’t have plans to get a rooster right now because we will be keeping a rooster from the batch of chicks. BUT a close friend has 6 roosters who were on their way to the table so we picked one out! So here is “Doodle” as in Cock-a-doodle-doo.. He is 4.5 months old and a Barred Rock crossed with Rhode Island Red. He is very friendly with the kids and the young hens LOVE him! They are following him everywhere and even helping to groom him, pretty funny to watch! So sooner or later we won’t have to bring in fertilized eggs, we will have our own.
