Carl, Chicken

Carl is an adorable male Chicken currently residing at Sacramento SPCA.

He is vaccinated.

Here's what Carl has to say:

My name is Carl and I am seven months old. A rooster can have several hens but cannot guard all their nests at once. I guard the general area where my hens are nesting and will attack other roosters that enter my territory. During the daytime, I will often "roost" by sitting on a high perch, usually 3 to 5 feet off the ground and serve as lookout for the group. I will sound a distinctive alarm call if predators are nearby.
