chickens4me Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Firstly, apologies if this notice is in the wrong place. I wasn't sure where it was best placed.....please correct me if I need to direct this elsewhere. I've been merrily hatching my own laying flock of RIR (production reds really), and Red Sex Links in order to increase hen numbers. Unfortunately, as nature would have it, we've produced more young roosters than we require. These are really nice looking birds so, while we could simply eat them, I thought I'd see if anyone is currently wanting any roosters for breeding with their own flock. The parents of these young lads are good natured birds and prolific egg layers, so any hens they produce I would expect to be excellent egg layers also. If anyone is interested please PM me and I can send photos of the boys available. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetlejuice Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Are you running a livestock business, if so than the classifieds section would be the best place to advertise your roosters, otherwise why not offer them to those who maybe interested for free?

chickens4me Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 No, they don't fight, they're not fighting cocks. Not running a livestock business, simply a backyard flock of hens to help support our own food bill. I would offer them for free except that most likely interested parties would eat whatever they received free? If people were only wanting to take them for free food then we might as well eat them ourselves. These chickens are free-range and fed the best quality food we can offer. While not 100% organically fed, it's close to it. And they are not fed hormones. I'll try to post a few photos later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trujillo Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I hope no one in my neighborhood buys any. I hate those MFers...shrieking at all hours of the night...If I see a rooster in my neighborhood, and I can get to it, it's definitely going to be a "late rooster."

cornishcarlos Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Just dye them pink, green and blue, like the Thais do and sell them to the kids in the village Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
