20. Just as I thought, we have TWO roosters!

Penguin, now mostly called Roo or Rooey, crows at 5:45-6:00am for about a half an hour. What I thought was two different sounds that he made now seem more like another rooster! Listen for yourself and take a guess...

The first sound is rooster #2, and the second is Penguin/Rooey, the black one. They then alternate.
((Sounds added soon!!!))

Based on what the rest of the chickens look like (comb and feathers are not rooish), our guess (confirmed by members of BackyardChickens.com!) is that the Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, Garnet (mostly called Dottie)is in fact the second mystery rooster. Yikes!

We will have to choose between them since two roosters in one coop is one rooster too many. :(
