Chicken Crazy

It seems word has gotten out I am a fan of chickens. Now people are contacting me for "chicken rescue". My first "guest" is a cute little bantam. I'm not even sure what breed or how old he is. I'm guessing he's 8-12 weeks old, but I'm not sure. I don't have enough experience to really know. Cute little fella though...



UPDATE: Since acquiring the chicken I've discerned that he is a Silver Sebright. A big clue is the fact that he is "hen feathered" meaning that he doesn't have the usual sex feathers of a rooster. (the pin feathers on his hackles and saddle, and the long tail feathers) He now also has a name: Goku

My 3 year old niece came up with the name and it stuck.
