El "Gallo Giro" es un término usado entre los criadores de gallos de pelea y se refiere a los gallos que tienen un plumaje blanco o plateado desde su cabeza, su cuello y su lomo, como si tuvieran una capa plateada.

Otro tipo de gallos de pelea es el "Gallo Colorado" que es un gallo que en lugar de tener plumas plateadas las tiene rojas y las plumas de su pecho son negras.

Hi Stuartshoema and welcome to the forum smile

If there is an accent on the o of "giro", el gallo giró, then it means "the rooster turned". It might be another way to say "weathercock" although the SD Dictonairy says that would be "la veleta".

Hope this helps!

Saludos, Chica
