    Topic of the Week - What do/can you do with unwanted roosters?

    Topic of the Week - What do/can you do with unwanted roosters?

    I'm struggling with this issue because I have 4 birds and 2 are roosters. I've tried to find them homes, but I haven't had much luck. I can't eat them!

    Rowdy Rooster

    Hi Guys, I have a batam roo (Rocky Roo) who is just over 11 weeks old. He's been really friendly so far, but he recently bit me pretty hard, twice. He's the only rooster living with his three hens. I raised him from a chick with his ladies and I'd like to keep him. I'm worried he will start...

    what type of bedding

    I wonder if shavings on top of a sand base would be good? I find straw to be really hard to clean (but that's based on my experience with horses and cows.)

    what type of bedding

    Hello, My fiance and I have a 3'x4' coop with a wooden floor and four chickens (they're 3+ weeks old and still in the brooder). We live in New Hampshire. What type of bedding do people suggest we use? We have a 8'x8' attached run (not in picture.)
