    Ronb I would be interested in a sussex, the friendlier to people the better. I had one in my mixed flock and it turned out roo and had to be rehomed. All of my birds are Pets first, layers second, and spoiled rotten. I'm in Snohomish.

    Two cockerels need forever homes.

    I have a 12 week old Speckled Sussex, and an 11 week old Barred Rock. They are extremely healthy, handled regularly, have not crowed, show no aggression. I would love to see them find their own flocks to look after, free to good homes. I would love you receive updates about them. Broken hearted...

    Rooster neutering?

    They are 11 and 12 weeks and have no bad behavior. I wouldn't do it strictly to change behavior. I need to be able to have them both together safely and not have fertilized eggs if I keep them. I was hoping that a qualified vet would be able to minimize the stress and risk. As far as weight...

    Rooster neutering?

    I sought her out for my chickens solely, as I have a vet for my lizards, a vet for my cats (cat only practices are less stressful to my rescue cat), and a vet for the dogs. The whole flock of girls I have were checked out by her when we got them, and will get in home annuals as well. If anyone...

    Rooster neutering?

    My partner and I are both vegetarian. Our chickens are companion animals first, layers second. We don't have any roosters, as we are uncomfortable eating fertilized eggs. We had two of our chicks turn out to be cockerels this year, and are basically heart broken at the idea of giving them up. We...

    I think yes they technically are hatchery quality, even though they are supplied to that place I got them by a small operation farm. thanks for the advice, I'll look for the fb groups for sure

    does anyone have any recommendations on where I could post to rehome my two cockerels? One barred rock 11 weeks and one speckled sussex 12 weeks, both beautiful and well handled and loved. Really hoping to find them a long term home.

    Polish Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    can I get some votes on pullet or cockerel for my wcbp? Sexed as a female, but we had a plucking incident after she broke 2 blood feathers and now I can tell much by the puff and it's wonky and I'm having roo anxiety. This is from before. It always seemed uniform to me, she was 4 months here.
