Before I realized this Aracauna chook was a rooster, I called him Tina Turner because, well … you can see why.
He just reminded me that this is, primarly, a bird blog!

LOL I used to do that too – call my chickens by name – but Tina suits “him” just fine.
When he was little I definitely thought he was a she – so funny!
Gorgeous male! The name I Araucana rooster (From Chile) 🙂
Oh is it a Chilean breed?
yes
What a bird, striking his pose! Handsome and a little vain! 🙂
Very vain!
Hi,
Oh yes I can certainly see why you called him Tina, what a shame he turned out to be a he. 😀
He is gorgeous though.
He wears too much lipstick – hehe!
Whahahahaha! Stunning and I can see the resemblance! What a gorgeous rooster! 🙂
And he knows it!
I’m laughing out loud. Poor Tina.
Poor Tina is also very aggressive!
Funny bird. Made me laugh.
You wouldn’t laugh if he attached his claws to your leg like he does to mine!
He’s gorgeous.
He’s also very nasty!
I have a horrible habit of loving pets with bad manners. I always end up with strays with attitudes. Currently, a stray cat comes to my door every morning and every evening for tuna and milk, won’t let me touch her, and even caught one of my nuthatches (which nearly made me cry), and I adore her. She’s a pain. A primadonna who values her freedom over me, but she’s spunky. What can I say?
You are funny and that cat sounds like such a character although the loss of your bird would’ve hurt.
I can see why you named the bird tht! hehehe
…and does Tina usually get his way? (That’s a great pose!)
He definitely does. He is a little bit like Godfrey and attacks my leg to get bread!
What a fascinating looking bird! I think you should definitely keep calling him Tina!
Yes he definitely looks like her! I mean that in a nice way.
Love the hairdo.
Ha!
I love that chicken!! I am making one 🙂
Gosh – that would be a bit difficult! I want to buy it!
He is awesome!
Great picture by you/ great pose by him!
Thanks but Jane took theh picture (wish I had!) Oh he poses constantly!
He is also quite vicious!
Can he sing like her?
No, but he does a good cockledoodledo every 5 minutes!
Since he’s a modern rooster, I’m sure he doesn’t mind being named Tina Turner. lol
