Title: Harley...MY NEW COCKEREL, ooooops!
Post by: TeaPots on May 05, 2010, 20:45
I couldnt resist him. He is a huge great lolloping Orpie. He Has beautiful "harlequin" markings, hence his name. The thinnest, tattiest rescue hen has fallen in love with him. She grooms his face  :blink: and he cocks his head to one side so she can reach  :). She is always near him, and keeps squatting in front of him. He treads her, and then she grooms him all over again. AND....when he does his poop, he scritches his feet in the grass like a dog!!!!  pretending to cover it.  The rest of the time, he flies up on the top of the fence and crows the loudest, most strident, most ANNOYING crow of all 16 of my cockerels.
