My Roosters
That's a fine looking crew! I am particularly fond of cochins so that first guy is my favorite.
You last couple look like my little bantum roosters (except they have the fuzzy legs & feet
of cochin). No ID help though.
Tam
LOL.. Yea, the first rooster is Petticoat Butt...he has so many feathers layered on that butt of his..lol..
Now that isn't a very dignified name for such a dignified looking rooster LOL
I love it!
I hope to have babies from him and his 5 hen harem...lol..next spring....
yes thats a splash cochin
Breed him to a black and you'll get blues
The best blues come from a black from a blue X black mating and a splash
COOL!!!!! Thanks...now need to name him..mmm
Got it.. His name is Blue Beaumont.

Now that first picture of the red and black rooster is my ideal for a rooster. He is gorgeous! Exactly the color and clean legs, with large wattles and comb! I would want one exactly like him! We will both hope someone ids him for you! LOL! BAM
Moodene if he is a bantam( the red one) it looks like the twin to my young Gentlemen! He looks as if you have a beautiful(excuse me) handsome...Tah daaaaaaaa.... old English BB Red !!! If he is a Standard size he looks like a Gorgeous Rhode Island Red!!!!!
Hi Tammy Im just not sure about the BB, Ill have to look that up!! Your pair are very pretty! They look , as far as coloration like BB's, but they look as if they may have been the result of a cross between a Cochin and BB Red!
Now this little Buff Bantam is the PAIN ,of my Chicken Yard! He is Very pretty but he knows it and I cannot catch him to put him in a pen!! He refuses to go into the chicken house at night and will roost on top where I cant get to him!! He will call my girls out to him! Ihave had to " rescue" one of my little BB hens and one of my Belgian D'Anvers from him! He intends to start hs own little Mixed breed family! So now Im intent on finding him a couple of buff beauties to go free range with him!
These are all beautiful birds. I love pretty birds.
The BB is black-breasted is it not? By the way, Eufala your chickens are pretty fabulous, too. The Japanese black tailed are really great. I admire all of you ladies with these lovely chickens, and the roosters are all fabulous. Someday, I want some, too. BAM
Thanks Bambam, I hope someday you will be able to have all the chickies you want too!!
