This 4-5 month old rooster was purchased from a heritage breeder in McLeansboro, IL, and was suppose to be a pullet, and just started crowing yesterday. Perfect for breeding, free to good home, needs to be gone by tomorrow. Located in Ellisville, MO (St. Louis) 314-614-4731

I have a four month old true breed black Ameraucana that started crowing today. I need to get rid of her (him) immediately before someone in my subdivision hears him. Their coop/run is in the woods behind our house, but I still live in the suburbs. Anyone have any ideas on what to do (humanely)...

I was thinking on the days I don't let them out to roam the woods (have to be here to watch for fox) can I put a cat litter box of dirt in their pen for dust baths? Should I add sand...
