I have 2 suspect Roos. I'm a little devestated to give either up, but can't keep Roos. The first is a NH hatch date around 4/23.
The second is a black australorpe hatch date 4/19.
So, both are 3 months and as I looked through lots of posts and descriptions I'm seeing behaviors and traits I think are Roos, but I don't want to give them up! Ugh. How come I'm so attached to chickens???

since we are in love with them, what do we do? Replace them? Take them to a "retirement" home? (I'm a vegetarian, but will eat eggs...and dairy) when should we remove them? Would removal and re-introduction the same day be too much stress for the other 5?

Is there a reason you have to give them up?
 
We live in residential area, the law won't let me keep Roos :( plus, I don't want fertilized Eggs...until we need new layers.
