Hi, I’m Rico

Say Hello to Rico - A Confident Little Rooster with a Big Personality

Rico is a dazzling Polish Bantam white rooster with a fabulous feathered crest and a confident sparkle in his eye. While he may start off a little shy, Rico is noticeably more comfortable around people than his buddy Rufus, and he's always curious about what you're up to.

This charming little gentleman is learning to enjoy gentle interactions and is quick to warm up to kind, patient humans. He's got a calm nature, a steady presence, and a quiet bravery that makes him a joy to be around.

Rico would love a peaceful home where he can strut his stuff, soak up the sunshine, and be part of a flock that appreciates his gentle leadership.

If you're looking for a feathered friend who's both beautiful and brave, Rico is ready to bring a touch of elegance and heart to your backyard.
