This extreme close-up of an intense, red face belongs to a Barred Cochin Bantam Rooster. He looks mean but they are actually very calm and tame. This poultry breed originated in China and was first brought to the U.S. in 1845. The bantam rooster has a five-pointed crown and weighs about 11 pounds. This bird won a blue ribbon at the 2012 Minnesota State Fair in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
