I know - hence the difficulty in all of this and why I feel so stuck.
I have rehomed some youngsters and some older girls recently and have always warned the new owners of the risks, but haven't gotten anyone who said they were worried.
Probably because the birds only live long enough to give eggs then end in the stewpot...
The problem birds (the ones who still gurgle on occasion) will never be rehomed, we'll probably end up culling them before winter
Glad to hear you're trying to be responsible in how you downsize. I know it's not easy for you, but if you get down to fewer birds, you'll get the chance to enjoy them again without all the stress....or at least not as much.
