Local animal rescue turns 39 roosters loose together

I have 2 roosters that live together and the are best buds and very happy. I do not understand why people are so eager to kill! Chicken people need a new patadigm. The old way is not always the best way.

I liked that article. Thanks for posting it.
I have no issue making roosters into a meal, but I like to keep extra roosters in case something happens to my breeding males, or because I want to rotate them through the breeding pen. Right now, I have a "bachelor pad" with 4 roosters (polish) in it, and they are mostly happy. A few squabbles now and again, but no serious injury.
Adding a new rooster to the group is difficult... the last male I added I put him in every night after dark and pull him out every morning for about a week. Then, on a day that I could supervise for most of the day, I left him with the other boys and kept an eye on things. He knew them from sleeping with them every night, and they tolerated him just fine.
