2 brown (2L)
A rooster visited today - not sure where he came from, suspicion is that he is escaping from a neighbor's flock about a quarter mile away. Another neighbor "helpfully" put him in the chicken yard thinking he was an escapee from my flock - they also knocked on my door to ask about it and we both concluded he was probably from the distant flock.
I wonder if I'll have some fertile eggs. I didn't see him covering any of the hens and he was only present for a couple of minutes. Hens were quite unhappy with his presence and were pecking at him. He seemed to be healthy. His breed is barred rock. I will be on guard for his return - he may be excited about additional hens and come for a visit.
