Lurker chiming in, If you have the room for them, I'd keep the girls and grow out the juvies to see what you have coming up. Since he has issues both physically and temperamental, I'd send the rooster on his way. You have invested a lot of time & money already so I'd hate to see you throw in...

I don't usually chime in much, but I agree with the time limit. I have a couple of swaps I still owe (and several owed to me). I stress about getting them sent out, but have tried to keep in in touch with the other parties as much as possible. The issue I will run into with eggs coming in in...
That's not true! I want eggs that each of you have offered, but we're moving soon and & I can't build any more pens until then :( So I can only get eggs from breeds I already have, especially the singletons that need friends of their own kind...
