Oh My! The most prettiest Roosters I had ever seen. The plate is just so beautiful, love the design and colors.
My favorite animal chickens and roosters . From a farm girl this is wonderful I love it !
Thank you kindly, Bellin!!! : )
Your welcome miKKoChristmas11:)
we used to have well over 200 of these fine critters on the farm :) of course the roosters ruled, we didnt clip thier wings, so they all flew just like pheasants, even had real natural cockfights (uncontrolled) never saw any die from them tho, that I remember, every farm should have banny chickens on the farm, very entertaining, and great pets too, not one morning went by that the roosters didn't crow :) thank you miKKo for the links :) dang roosters didn't let me sleep in (:
I love to wake to a roosters crow :-)
