7 week old BSL Cockerel - very friendly - Fresno California (Central)

That's too young to know how he will truly act to the ladies because his hormones haven't kicked in yet. Things change once they start mating, they will chase the girls down screaming and mate them like it or not. And change even later than that when they mature and suddenly start protecting their ladies around 8-9 months.

You could try posting on a board at you local feed store. Or maybe a natural foods type store. Are you using the farm and garden section on CL? I would also post under the pet and free sections.

Or accept the fact that everybody has to eat..... and let someone take him who will do it humanely. You still eat chicken from the store right? Even though you can't do, maybe you can be honored that another family gets to eat after your boy lived an awesome life.

Best wishes!
Thank you for the info, I'm really new to chickens (so much to learn!) and Thank you so much for the advice to also post under the 'free' CL section, just a few hours after posting him there, he got a wonderful home with a bunch of older RIR's and some leghorns to teach him who's boss :)

Also, does anyone know if there's a way to edit the title or take down the thread now that he'd rehomed?

I don't know how to edit other than that little pencil next to the flag on the bottom left of your post. But I think you will only be able to do yours... and the thread itself will probably remain. Kinda dumb for this situation because it would be nice to be able to take it down...

ah, what can ya do?

I have seen titles get edited before... but I'm not sure how.
