Beautiful animals but nasty dispositions when they get to feeling "cock sure". I remember their spurs from childhood confrontations.
Great shot though.

That's the closest I've been to a rooster. Hens are lovely.

I would love to have some chooks, but I have no one to care for them when I go away.

ah yes, the only problem with pets, which is why i dont travel much, too many pets and i wouldnt want to put the burden on my nan to look after then, even tho she is willing

I was quite pleased when I saw this for the first time on the computer. And it was pure luck, the next moment he had put his head back in the cage.

Oh doh, I didn't see in the larger view that he had won first place. I miss the annual poultry show...it has been gone for several years due to fears of bird flu.

That is sad. It hasn't effected us in Australia yet.

It is, I don't even think it's affected us here in Canada. To my knowledge there are smaller poultry shows still, but this big one is no more. It is such a shame, especially as I have such a great camera now. They also had pigeons, cavies and rabbits at the show.

He's gorgeous! I hope he won the ribbon next to him

I would love some chooks too, but I'm only allowed a dog. 
I have a list of animals I would like as pets if I were younger.

Well, we had our fair share of pets. We used to live on a hobby farm, and at one time or another we had ponies, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, goats, geese, a pet raccoon, chipmunks, or whatever other creatures wandered onto your property. It was great to have pets, and especially when we were kids, but 'm all petted out now. I'm quite happy to be petless now. At this point I just don't want to committ to another animal. I'm rather enjoying being allowed to sleep in, and not having to step in dog poo (or having to pick it up).

He certainly is and he enjoyed his audience.

Well he is proud of that big shiny blue first place ribbon, or plaque rather

He certainly was and the noisiest of all.

is his fate in a pot - or will he help raise more just like him in a fantasy retirement

After winning first place in his class, I'm sure he will be in demand for breeding and not eating.

Probably not a good idea for a chicken to draw too much attention to its self.

He certainly was. The hens sat very quietly and lady-like in their cages.

He certainly did and he was letting everyone know it.

Nice shot! I hadn't heard the word "chook" before, but I gather its very common in Australia.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I hadn't heard the word either until I came to Australia, but after over 30 years here, I use it a lot too.

I love hens, but I don't think I could stand all that cock-a doodle-dooing in my garden.

Thank you very much Volker, he was such fun to watch his antics, but I must admit his cock-adoodle-doo was ear-splitting.

He was also the noisiest chook there.
