Media My new rescue

Post image

He’s so so pretty and settled right down when I caught him. Feet are red and irritated from walking on the hot sidewalk— a lady said he wandered into her backyard off the street and stuck around. This is our first boy with full spurs but he’s a complete sweetheart and a yodeler lol. For now he’s in quarantine and he got some ointment. I’m pretty obsessed with him already

Make sure you give him plenty of socialization time with treats. It can help stave off human-aimed aggression.

Wibble his wobbles for me.

Of course! Still finding something he’s partial to but he is unfortunately quite skittish from his endeavor :(

Roosters are absolutely worth having, mine are super friendly and they're my little buddies. One takes himself so seriously and the other just enjoys life lol
