Squishychicken, we've had them for about six days now.
I was wondering if they may have been mixed with bantams. Where I'm originally from the roosters were bigger than these guys but these guys don't seem small either.
What size are grown bantams? These guys are bigger than my smaller dog, who is a Jack Russell.
Also on a slightly different note, do my boys look full grown, and is it possible to estimate their age from their look?
I think they are standards. They were dumped in our garden a few days ago and are my first roosters so I have very little experience and am unsure, but they don't look smaller than most.

We will acquire a coop one way or another - either we will make one...
Thank you! I appreciate the help and welcome. So far it looks like these guys are going to stay with us.
Another question - how could I catch them? They are roaming around the garden, but certainly don't want to be picked up... I've tried to herd them into a small enclosure but only managed to...
Hi there; I'm new here. :)
Yesterday morning we found three roosters in the garden. We live in the country and the nearest neighbor who has chickens lives over a mile from here and hasn't come to pick them up yet even though we've notified them. Based on that and the fact that as the crow flies...
