Giovanni

Giovanni joined his forever flock in 2017. He was originally found left in a dumpster after a state fair poultry swap. He spent the first month of his rescue at another sanctuary where they fixed him up. He then made his way to Tiny Hooves to live his life in sanctuary! Gio is a gentleman with his flock mates Jessi and Ezi, but he is still quite timid around people. We completely understand why humans would make him nervous, and we accept Gio for who he is, and meet him there. Giovanni loves popcorn and peas, and will always tidbit for them!

***rooster dumping is illegal - they are not wild animals and will not survive in the wild alone** Roosters suffer from a horrible stigma surrounding them that they are violent and aggressive, which is just not the truth. Roosters are excellent protectors of their flocks and friends, which can be misunderstood as “being mean”, but they are just doing what they know to do best, being the good gentlemen they are to their families. Roosters are emotionally complex animals, who have a huge range of interesting personalities. Many roosters love snuggles, and all offer the families that they trust with a loyalty that outlasts time itself. Roosters keep the peace within their family flocks, breaking up fights between their friends, while making sure no one gets hurt. Roosters make amazing companions, and we wish everyone had the pleasure of knowing a rooster friend!*
