Derperella, the (weird) Faverolles, & Friends

Photo from a few days ago.. Trousers watching over Coho, who obviously loves him!

I have said a few prayers for this lovely rooster. I know a number of people have been inspired to get Faverolles because of Derp, but after your descriptions of Trousers I'm now house hunting for properties in rooster-friendly lands just so's I can get a Cochin rooster!

My favourite-est Derp story is when Trousers says "Hello smaller hen. Are you all right?" to Derp... (post 2202) so sweet and romantic

& the picture of Trousers with Coho throwing herself at his feet... all males of any species should be envious

Trousers has had his surgery and is coming out of it. The pathology report will take about a week. You can read about it in the emergencies section about Rooster with possible tumor.

just checking in, wondered if there was any word?? will check the thread

I will keep his story up to date with details in this thread (it's easier for someone to find, in case they ever have a similar problem! That's how I have learned stuff before myself): https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/752543/rooster-with-crop-problem-possible-tumor

He is home and recovering well so far. Feel free to read the other thread for details.

Oh boy, I hope trousers is okay. If you do find out if the tumor is malignant, not to jinx anyone you might want to relay that to the lady who hatched him since she kept some of his sisters, so that she can keep an eye out if they develop the same problem if the tumor is caused by a genetic issue. If so and as sweet as Trousers is, it's a good thing you aren't going to breed him so that other chickens if the tumor's cause is genetic to spread it to other other bloodlines.

I think Fud Lady will take things as they come up.
