ISO Silver Appenzeller Rooster

[Lisa Pedro]

I am in search of a Silver Spitzhauben Appenzeller Rooster. We are in Central Florida and lost alot of birds during hurricane Irma. I had several of my Silkies and frizzled Cochins drown in their coops. Lost a bunch of our "eating" egg layers and 3 of my Appenzellers which included my roosters. I still have 5 beautiful hens and I would love to find a new rooster for them. If someone has one close to me or if anyone would be willing to ship one, I would really appreciate it. Please let me know what you have and how much. Thank you and have a great day, Lisa [email protected] 407-368-8246

Have you considered ordering one from a hatchery, or do ou ou want a good quality one.

There were some in SC, but they were Chamois.

I really need Silver. And I don't want to wait for a chick to grow up. So I was hoping for a mature rooster. My roosters over the years have been very good natured.

I've been following your story. I am raising 5 silver Appenzeller Spitzhauben chicks. I am so impressed w this breed. So mellow and friendly.
I wish you good luck, let us know....

I have 4 beautiful boys 7 months ready to go. They are already producing chicks.
I'm in Tennessee though

Oh, I don't have one, but thank you for mentioning me!
I checked your local Craigslists, and couldn't find any adults for sale. There's a good chance you will have to get a chick after all--most likely from a hatchery like Crazy for Chickens mentioned--or, you can continue to wait longer and maybe the perfect one in need of a home will come along! <3 Sorry I'm no help!
@HeyHey, could you ship one of yours to her?

By the way, I'm sorry you lost your chickens.

 

[HeyHey]

I could ship one, but have never done that before si I don't know how

@HeyHey or anyone else, Good info in this thread about shipping.......

It's expensive, you also need a special live bird box....
