Tarzana plays host to a giant rooster at Red Barn Feed and Pet, an all red, rather large business. It is located up high on an overhang to the left of the main entrance. The main entrance is also flanked by two giant bears, one a brown bear, one a polar bear. You can sit on their right paws if you wish. Above the main entrance is a large mural of pigs and goats hanging out in a barn like setting.
International Fiberglass is perhaps best known as the company that made the Muffler Men that stand guard on our highways, but they also built other fiberglass statues such as the well known Sinclair Dinosaurs and the less known, but oh so awesome, giant rooster like this one in Los Angeles! At 8 feet tall, 3 feet wide, 5 1/2 feet long and weighing in at 100 pounds of fiberglass, these colorful fowl often could be found standing on top of or outside of chicken stores throughout the country.
International Fiberglass specifically targeted chicken restaurants for the big birds, and advertised them as "Something to Crow About . . . this Gigantic Rooster. Whether mounted high on the rooftop, at ground level, or wherever, this giant sales booster is an effective display that can be seen for blocks around."
