Our new boy...

We sadly lost Bruce our rooster about three weeks ago. Didn't even want to acknowledge it as its been a sad time. At least he passed being with his ladies in the Chookhouse, very warm and comfy...

Well, yesterday Tim came home with a new rooster. He's six months old and at the moment he's in a pen just so he gets used to being relocated... He's very beautiful... He has feathers down his feet just like Bruce had... Oh, I do miss that boy...

His comb is a Rose comb. Haven't had a chook with such a comb before though have seen them plenty of times...

Due to his colouring looking a little mottled like a rock his name is Rocky!

He's come from a lovely home in our village and though he's on the bigger side he's is a gentleman...

Can't wait to introduce him to the ladies properly!!!

Blessings,
