So i know this is a long shot but i'm trying to re-home a roo. i believe he is a blue orpington. He is about 14 weeks old. i would usually just cull him, but he is so laid back and fantastic with my children that i figured i'd give him a chance. Our neighbors petitioned our township because...

I don't really have the time to try and fine tune it but in my experience it dint seem to do anything to quiet him or deter him from crowing. And it just doesn't seem fair to have him wearing it for life.

So i purchased 25 pullets back in may from tractor supply. I am 99.9% sure that one is a rooster based on saddle and neck feathers (and i started trying to crow lol). i am just looking for a taker. now swap, just want to find a good home for the little guy. I am located in the lehigh valley...
